The ICA Talks package consists of 1,000 hours of recordings of events at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, in the Mall, London – made in the period 1981-1994.

Here are just a few of the talks I found that look especially interesting:

Michael Ondaatje (Discussion and readings of ‘Running in the Family’ and ‘Coming through Slaughter’)

Bohumil Hrabal and Julian Barnes, in conversation

Christine Brooke-Rose and A. S. Byatt, in conversation

Juan Goytisolo and Chris Rawlence, in conversation

Angela Carter discusses magical realism

William Gaddis and Malcolm Bradbury, in conversation

Dennis Cooper talks to artist Susan Miller about pornography, violence, lust, literature and politics on the occasion of the publication of his book ‘Frisk’

Jacques Derrida and Geoffrey Bennington, in conversation

Jean-Jacques Lecercle, Philosophy through the looking glass
