				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to the website of Dickon Edwards: writer, dysfunctional dandy, flâneur, lyricist, DJ, dilettante, boulevardier, valetudinarian, imbiber, and former member of the recording artistes <a href="http://butisitart.org/?page_id=183">Fosca</a> and Orlando.</p>
<p>Mr Edwards has kept a online <a href="http://dickonedwards.com/diary">diary</a> since 1997, which inadvertently has become one of the UK&#8217;s longest running blogs. Over the years, the diary has appeared on TV (BBC1&#8242;s arts programme, <em>Imagine</em>) and in various periodicals across the world, from the UK&#8217;s <em>Select </em>(RIP)<em> </em>to<em> </em>Sweden&#8217;s<em> Dagens Nyheter</em>.</p>

<p><strong>AGAINST NATURE</strong>    <br /><img style="margin: 0px; display: inline" class="alignleft size-medium  wp-image-216" alt="" align="left" src="http://dickonedwards.com/wp-content/uploads/2005/10/against-nature-flyer-front-385x545.jpg" width="148" height="210" />In 2010 Mr Edwards ran his very own club night in Camden Town, &#8216;Against Nature&#8217;.</p>
<p>It featured vintage DJ-ing (showtunes, easy listening, cabaret classics), silent movies, eccentric bands and unconventional cabaret acts.</p>
<p>The club is now on hold, but in the meantime Mr Edwards sometimes pops up as a guest DJ at other people’s events. </p>
