The '''Workshop for Non-Linear Architecture''' ('''WNLA''') was thea group name of experimental artists and [[Psychogeography|Psycho geographers]]. The group was active in parts of [[United Kingdom|Great Britain]] and [[Glasgow]] during the 1990s. Informed to a large degreeBased byon the urban practices of the [[Paris]]-based [[Lettriste Internationale]] (1952–1957), the workshop focused its practice on developing the Letterist theory of [[Unitary Urbanism]]. The development of the theory was done through physical research and behavioral intervention.

The artist, [[Ralph Rumney]] (1934-2002), who had known many of the original Parisian leaders, participated in one of the groups derived in London in 1995. He is credited with bringing the activities of the workshop to a wider audience. The workshop appears to have disbanded shortly after the release of the fourth and final issue of its journal ''Viscosity''. The journal is now infamous for having been selected by the [[K Foundation]] to announce their 23-year ban on all artistic practices.
