Hayden Lorimer asks poets, thinkers and entropy tourists why we love fragments and scraps more than finished art works?

From the ruins of a modern architectural masterpiece on the banks of the River Clyde.

With:

* Alice Oswald and Patrick McGuinness
* Mark Ford and Seamus Perry

With the music of:

* Bob Dylan
* Pere Ubu
* Christian Marclay

These fragments I have shored against my ruins, wrote TS Eliot in The Waste Land.

Are we all cultural vultures now?
