Excerpt from Iain Sinclair's Living with buildings and walking with ghosts, page 160.
Sinclair's refers to Rebecca Hind's Scintilla work.
[...] The Christ Church triptych is a cascade of waterlight scintillating against the assertive grandeur of Hawksmoor, that masculine insistence on 'terror and magnificence': a space stripped and painted for concerts, promotions and televised incantations. A ballroom of vanities in which I remember seeing the magus Alan Moore marking out a pentagram of spectral conjurings for the camera. [...]
Grazie to friend Omar Martini for this little discovery.
