I recently had the privilege of taking part in a pilgrimage style performance with Grayson Perry around Bavaria. Grayson loves his motorbikes, just like he loves his dresses, and he designed this rather incredible beast which doubles up as a sort of Popemobile for Grayson’s benign dictator teddybear, His Royal Highness Alan Measles. Over ten days we visited sites of great cultural significance for Grayson and his work, from the Nurburgring to Mad King Ludwig’s Neuschwanstein Castle, made famous by Disney in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Grayson kept an audio diary and you can hear his experiance on BBC Radio 4 on Monday 1 November at 11am. A lesson on the human importance given to inanimate objects. Visit Alan Measles' blog here
