Isn't that the chemical formula of MDMA, more commonly referred to as ecstacy? It's certainly an intersting form, there looks to be a reflection of a bridge in there. Care to expand for me, I think I'm too dim to link the title to the photo.

Yes Ben, that is ecstacy.

 

Nick, is it a new product at Smithfield? The image it's self has a dramatic grandeur about it and looks like a setting from a computer game.

 

Spill the beans Nick, explain.

Thanks Ben, thanks Pete - Sorry to be so obscure!

 

Yes the title is indeed the main psychoactive compound in the street drug Ecstasy, i.e. M.D.M.A. - The photograph is a detail from the door to "Fabric" which is one of the biggest (and currently popular) clubs on the London Dance scene. Thousands of people queue up to go clubbing in Fabric each friday and saturday night, and statistics suggest that at least 60% will consume at least one tablet (pill) of "E" to enhance their Dancing experience. Fabric is round the corner from where I live, and the image stems from the fact that last weekend when I was walking home from the pub (a time when such clubs are just opening), an itinerant drug dealer enquired if I wanted to buy any pills - I'm a 34 year old doctor for heavens sake! - I didn't know wheather to be flattered or insulted, needless to say, I just went home to bed having consumed far too much of my own favorite drug, namely alcohol!

 

On reflection, I found the whole insident rather amusing, so the next day I took this photograph. - The reflected image is that of the Meat Market of West Smithfield, along with orange light from a street lamp.

 

All things considered, I quite liked the results. Thanks for putting up with the unnessessary intrigue!

 

Best wishes, Nick.

How ironic that a meatmarket sits opposite a nightclub. Thanks for satisfying our curiosity.
