#EmergingJournal
Self-professed ‘Cult Storyteller’ Christopher Lutterodt-Quarcoo is a London
based designer, director and writer. His interests and background in film, art
and politics are linked through his affinity for intricate narratives revealed
through an experience of a specific individual or psyche. Typically materialised
as installations using cinematic devices and religious conventions allowing
for the presence of reverence and the ineffable.
In 2016 he founded ‘Unmaterialised’, a nomadic archive blurring the lines
between fact with fiction. As well as forming ’The Adversary’ a ‘Critical
Simulator’, (part research practice part immersive think-tank). His practice
and interests has seen him be commissioned to talk about his finding
and strategies as well as devise scenarios for policy makers and cultural
institutions.
