This vid was made in 2005 when Eden was still a drawing on a piece of paper. This legendary record shop - the psychogeographical epicentre of my Wycombe - has been swept away by an extension built onto the front of Sainsbury's supermarket.

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.

I remember Scorpion well, also Sun Music, the music shop which was there before which gets a brief mention by Jeff in the film. Both (along with the much 'squarer' Percy Priors in the Octagon, and the Nags Head where I saw nearly all of the English punk bands before punk became 'famous') were an integral part of the High Wycombe 'music' scene throughout my teenage years.
Happy daze....
