Revision as of 16:52, 13 October 2008

The Square Chapel, Halifax, West Yorkshire was designed by Thomas Bradley and James Kershaw at the instigation of Titus Knight a local preacher. Construction started in 1772 and was visited by John Wesley in July that year.

The Congregationalist chapel was typical in Nonconformist design offering an uninterrupted view of the preacher, having no internal supporting structures. As its name suggests the Chapel has a square base. Untypical though for the Calderdale region it was built of red brick rather than local stone.

Since 1992, the Chapel has been used as an Arts Centre.

-==Music video==
-[[Image:Bjork Wanderlust.jpg|left|thumb|Björk in the music video.]]
-The [[music video]], directed by Encyclopedia Pictura in [[New York City]] in [[Stereoscopy|stereoscopic 3D]],<ref>[http://www.studiodaily.com/main/technique/casestudies/8811.html Making a 3D Music Video for Björk | Studio Daily<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> involves a mixture of large scale puppeteering, live action acrobatics, miniatures, and CG. It was choreographed by Chris Elam, artistic director of Misnomer Dance, and features Brynne Billingsley and Coco Karol. It officially premiered on Yahoo Music on March 31. In the video, a group of [[yaks]] crowd beside a river bank. Björk, in an ancient [[Mongols|Mongolian]] tribal costume, appears amongst them and creates a river from the ground. She rises up and leads the herd into the river, and they all float downstream, with Björk on the back of one of the yak-like creatures. Throughout the video, a clay personal demon (her 'painbody'{{citation needed}}) comes  out of her backpack and tries to attack her. Finally, a god creates a waterfall and Björk falls off the edge and into the water below, where a pair of hands catches her after a vortex of water has engulfed her and the painbody.
