Curiosity Field-Trip to Southwold

Posted by Dave on 19 June 2008 | 0 Comments

A couple of weeks ago we had a field-trip to the Under the Pier Show at Southwold. We were shown around by its creator and our new friend, Tim Hunkin.

As Tim puts it the Under the Pier Show is, “A mad collection of home-made slot machines & simulator rides on Southwold Pier”. We got Autofrisk’ed, toned-up with Quickfit and journeyed to the bottom of the sea in the Bathyscape. I think my favourite is the Mobility Masterclass; I really like the combination of mechanics and video - it’s also really good fun!

Tim’s short film For Amusement Only talks about many of the things we saw and some interesting reflections of amusement arcades:

Many thanks to Tim for a really entertaining and inspiring evening.

Cheers,
Dave.
