Matthew Collings explores modern culture and its historical lineage. This examination of artistic freedom looks at the notions of Romanticism through the lives and works of the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, and traces a link to the sixties hippy ideal and the Glastonbury Festival. The theme of authenticity in art is explored through 'Beat' writer Jack Kerouac. Collings also recreates a train journey to the frozen wastes of Northern Canada undertaken by classical pianist Glenn Gould.
