Maps are all about power and control. In a world saturated by satnavs and GPS the Holy Biscuit will lure you to stray off the A to Z. Explore a world of mysterious maps, contemporary NewcastleGatesheads, created by people often made invisible in the official guides to the city: school pupils’ maps etched with gold leaf, maps of studentville in fear of libraries, maps made by the homeless literally nowhere or glossy hoardings where the familiar runs out. Encounter new cities of skateboard poetry, subvert the city with beautiful wax, and stop by for a game of Dungeons and Shopping Mall.
