‘In my country, you go to prison first, then become President’ – Nelson Mandela

Meditations on Crime arises at G46 as a B&E art work intervention, on walls and as a paper book and vinyl record – conceived, co-written, arranged and produced by Harper Simon, featuring a new previously unreleased recording by Arkestra (The Sun-Ra Arkestra) as well as King Khan and others – whilst the book has contemplative art imaginings by Cindy Sherman, Raymond Pettibon, Jonah Freeman and Laurie Anderson amongst others, known/unknown.
Essays appear as further mediations by Jerry Stahl, Hooman Majd, Wayne Kramer (MC5), Miranda July, Ben Okri and many more.
New responses are written in text and images on walls in G46 and the streets of London and beyond.

The album is released via AntiFragile Music and the special edition book distributed by Bunker Basement in the UK.
