We are having the following event as part of the London Festival of Architecture. All welcome

Architectural Jelly Banquet
Vast jelly installation and party curated by architectural foodsmiths Bompas & Parr in UCL's neo classical quad. Let's get ready to wobble!

For the London Festival of Architecture architectural foodsmiths Bompas & Parr invite you to enter a fantastical jelly world. Performers wearing vast jelly costumes will dance around an altar containing an array of over 1000 specially commissioned jellies. The jellies will include the winning designs for the Architectural Jelly Design Competition entered by many top architects.

Jellies created as part of the Architectural Jelly Design Competition will be showcased alongside bespoke wobbling soundscapes, projections and intense oral stimulation. The whole will serve to amplify the architectural impact of the UCL’s buildings.

Come dressed like a trifle or tasty desert and ready marvel then party long into the night.

What about the "humour" in the festival?
A serious endeavour like LFA, should have a
humourous counter -aspect to bring freshness
and balance to it.
I have a suggestion: THE SECOND VENICE by Askin Ozcan can perform this task. A humorous
architectural fantasy, where Pshht Cola and McBigBite build an imaginary bigger and better "second Venice", in response to the Italian government's restriction on number of tourists to be allowed into Venice, would be the right
humorous contribution to the LFA.
A wonderful architectural satire written by an architect, already selling on architectural sites likes http://www.archinect.com and on http://www.amazon.co.uk as well as on 200 internet bookshops, which became No.1 among top rated books at Italy Magazine, last year, can perform this duty of igniting the sense of humour
in LFA.
Have a look at its website and review :

The rest is up to the Organising Committee.
