London 'Ghost Station' Underground Map
(Click to enlarge)
'Ghost stations' is the usual English translation for the German word Geisterbahnhöfe. This term was used to describe certain stations on Berlin’s U-Bahn and S-Bahn metro networks that were closed during the period of Berlin’s division during the Cold War. Since then, the term has come to be used to describe any disused station on an underground railway line, especially those actively passed through by passenger trains.

Herbert Huncke reads @SUNY Buffalo Spring Festival 1966
Herbert Huncke reads 'Whitey' & part of 'Detroit Redhead' at the SUNY Buffalo Spring Festival in 1966. Only known recording—transferred from cassette. Sound quality pretty good—some clipping & distortion.
Student Q&A after 'Whitey' has Huncke fielding questions like: "What's hash?" "What's 'cracking a crib'?"

Elsie John was a (self-described) hermaphrodite carnival performer who Herbert became friends with as a 15 year old boy in Chicago 1929.
Born in 1915, Herbert Huncke died in 1996. He had a direct & long-lasting influence on Kerouac, Ginsberg & Burroughs (according to all 3) & originally coined the term 'Beat'.
Kerouac called Huncke “the greatest storyteller I know, an actual genius at it, in my mind.”

This is a Game Called ‘Hello, Hello, Here is X.X.’ (Trailer)
Extracts from This is a Game Called ‘Hello, Hello, Here is X.X.’, a limited edition sound work by Mark Jackson edited from original recordings of an interview between William S. Burroughs and Roger Clarke.
This is a game called ‘Hello, hello, here is X.X.’ is composed of edits from an interview Clarke conducted in 1995 with William S. Burroughs at his home in Lawrence, Kansas. Rather than a document of an interview (the original tapes comprise of seven hours of material), the record seeks to augment the space in which the recordings were made, dwelling upon moments such as a search around the house for a rainstick, a pause in the interview whilst food is prepared, a visit to his home-made orgone accumulator and trips to feed the fish amidst a cacophony of annual cicadas in the Kansas summer.
This is a game called ‘Hello, hello, here is X.X.’ was produced and commissioned by Gordon Shrigley for Laura Palookaville and engineered by Frank Merritt of the Carvery, London, with sleeve design by Foxtrot Hotel, London
