Andy Wilson has been a prominant figure on the UK experimental music scene for three decades now. His pioneering work as Raudive Bunker Experiment in the early eighties has recently been reissued as a lavish box set. Since then he has worked as a member of Bourbonese Qualk and written the book Faust: Stretch Out Time and now records and performs his own music as both sunseastar and The Grand Erector. Andy provided Parking Non-Stop with some hydrophone recordings he had made at Portland Chesil beach in Dorset in July 2006, which were subsequently used in the PN-S track Crystalline on Species Corridor. In return, Parking Non-Stop gave Andy some of their field recordings, notably those made in the RAF bomb depot, Llanberis on the 9th February 2007 which he then treated and used on The Grand Erector's self titled debut LP, release in October 2008.

Parking Non-Stop first met the Czech artist Matin Zet at the Ars Poetica festival in Bratislava in September/October 2004. Since then, their paths have crossed several times, travelling to his home in Lubišín to visit him and see his exhibition at Dul Mayrau coal mine in October 2006, collaborating live with him at Studio Rubin, Prague in May 2007 and meeting up again to film his public interventions in Newcastle upon Tyne in October 2007.

Alan and Zoë returned to perform again at the Ars Poetica festival in Bratislava, Slovakia in October 2009. On this occasion they were joined on stage at the A4 by the noted Slovak actress Lucia Rózsa Hurajová, who performed the Slovak versions of the texts, as translated by the poet Martin Solotruk..

Zoë first encountered the Slovenian poet Gregor Podlogar at a translation conference in Scotland in August 2006 and was instantly taken with not only his writing but also his DJ skills, when he kept everyone up all night dancing to DFA remixes and drinking Jura whisky. Zoë and Alan were subsequently delighted to be invited to perform at the 2008 Dnevi poezije in vina (Days of Wine and Poetry) festival in Slovenia, seizing the opportunity for a collaboration with Gregor. At the festival, much excellent wine was consumed and Gregor provided the slovene translations of Zoë's poems, which were also recorded and appear in part on Parking Non-Stop's split vinyl LP on the Pure Pop For Now People label.

Parking Non-Stop spent much of 2005 involved in collaboration with other artists. In April, Alan and Zoë visited Dutch writer Bas Kromhout at his home in Den Haag, where they recorded various household appliances in his flat. Recordings of Bas's refrigerator and gas fire were then interwoven with sounds from PN-S's own plumbing system to create an international domestic symphony. This was then overlaid with some of Dewi's most cinematic string arrangements, along with Bas's reading of J.C. Bloem's poem "Altjid November" and Zoë's responses to the poem. The resulting piece appeared on the Parking Non-Stop album Species Corridor.

October 2004 brought about an interesting collaboration when Parking Non-Stop performed at the Ars Poetica festival in Bratislava,Slovakia where they were joined on stage by the noted Slovak actress Tana Pauhofova, who performed the Slovak versions of the texts, as translated by the poet Martin Solotruk. Visual contributions were provided in the form of digital projections by the graphic artist Jan Sicko.

In a further ongoing collaboration, they continued working with Annie Stubbs from London wicca group Devotion. One completed piece took the form of an evocative homage to the mythical Lorelei of Germanic folklore, featuring a quite otherworldly vocal performance from Annie, and is set to appear on a forthcoming album of her recent work. She is perhaps best known as a one-time member of pioneering industrialists SPK, and has also worked with Lustmord, The Long Decline, The Zuggs, 11th Hour, Blow By Blow, The Dekorators, Aquarelle, Pillow Talk and The Ominous Dr Clip-Clop (amongst others).
