Regime Change in High Wycombe
A film recording the ancient ceremony of the Weighing-In of the Mayor, unique to Wycombe. Filmed on Super 8 in 2003 when we were first developing ideas for a film about Wycombe.

About Me
- Name: fugueur
- Location: High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire
This blog is to track the development of a project by brother and sister team Cathy & John Rogers to remap the area of High Wycombe earmarked for town centre re-development (formerly Project Phoenix). The remapping is to be undertaken in collaboration with community groups in High Wycombe by staging a psychogeograpical event, a walk, a ‘derive‘ within the boundary of the re-development area, the results of which will be used to animate the town centre with a temporary art installation.

Dear Cathy and John
I've moved to HW in Jan 2005 and I really enjoy visiting your blog. The video of the annual Mayoral weigh-in was very well put together.
Although I'm new to the area, it is fascinating to read of the past and of the discoveries you have been making.
Good luck with your work and I look forward to reading more on your blog!
