Summary

Pathe synopsis: Fairs, with the times, are changing. Margate’s Dreamland has all the go-faster fun machines but even these are slipping behind the times. The latest attraction here is a Fun Palace - what they call an experiment in spatial awareness. Created by London inventor-designer Keith Albarn, the idea is to increase your awareness by exploring and activating its twenty weird chambers.
