"Sky Arts Ignition: Memory Palace ... 18 June-20 October 2013 ... [B]rought together a new work of fiction by the author Hari Kunzru with 20 original commissions from leading graphic designers, illustrators and typographers to create a multidimensional story. The way we read books is changing. Memory Palace explored how a story might be imagined in a different format--as a walk-in book. Hari Kunzru's story is set in a future London, hundreds of years after the world's information infrastructure was wiped out by an immense magnetic storm. Technology and knowledge have been lost, and a dark age prevails"--Victoria and Albert Museum website, viewed on January 27, 2016.
