Geographies of Youth Cultures Cool Places Music, drugs, clubbing and travel—this is the popular image of what it means to be young. However, young people’s lives are also bound up with the nitty-gritty everyday realities of home, school, work; and are circumscribed by globalising forces of the economy and processes of marginalisation and exclusion. Cool Places explores these contrasting experiences of contemporary youth. In chapters drawing on a wide range of examples—from Techno music and ecstasy in Germany, clubbing in London, global backpacking and gangs in Santa Cruz, to experiences at home of sibling rivalry, loitering on streets and seeking employment, leading contemporary writers from Geography, Cultural Studies and Sociology explore issues of representation and resistance; and geographical concepts of scale and place in young people’s lives. In the four parts which make up this book the authors consider how the media has imagined young people as a particular community with shared interests and how young people resist these stereotypes and create their own independent representations of their lives; the complex ways that youth cultures are played out across different scales; young people’s experiences of everyday geographical locations from the home to the street; and the power of young people to resist adult definitions of their lives and to create new spaces and ways of living. By drawing on a rich vein of empirical material and through employing young people’s vignettes, Cool Places aims to place youth and youth cultures on the geographic map and to stimulate new directions for youth- oriented research.

The 10 years of success and innovation that Blackstar has enjoyed, however, put the lie to that idea. I remember visiting Blackstar’s factory a few years ago and being shown a prototype of an ID:Core amplifier and wondering how on earth they’d gotten such a huge, room-filling sound out of such a small box. When they then told me that the amp was going to sell for the price of an effects pedal, it gave me an acute attack of what I now recognise as the Blackstar ‘Wow’ effect .

    THE SPEAK – NEW SINGLE RELEASE ‘FLOWERS (FOR JACKIE)’ The Speak are a Power Pop Rock band from Brighton UK. This classic guitar, bass and drums line-up of The Speak are all about tasteful harmonies, catchy lyrics and thumping rhythms to deliver a blistering live show. They have supported Dodgy, Peter Hook and the Light and Chris Difford of Squeeze.​ Driven by singer-songwriter Nick Endacott, who’s father is a worldwide famous musician, ex-Cure member Matt Hartley on bass, and Violet Stow (tours with Adam Bomb and has played with The Yardbirds and The Damned) and Jonny Barnett (tours with Paul Draper of Mansun and has worked with Depeche Mode and Steven Wilson) on Drums. Nick wants people to respect his music and not his history, and does not want to trade on his fathers name. The Speak have been in the recording studio for many years and their new single due for release Friday 13th November, titled ‘Flowers (for Jackie)’ is set to be a sensational hit for the band. ​ The roots of The Speak are in 60’s influences, the golden age of British music. “But that’s the root, not our musical family tree,” Nick says. “So much was invented in the 60’s but there has been far more created since and we have absorbed and learned from every exciting idea there has been in the last six decades. That’s given us a platform from which we’ve launched The Speak and everything that’s unique about what we do.” ​ Nick has been the mastermind behind The Speak and he is passionate about his songwriting and defining the sound in the studio – which is constantly evolving.

  • NEGOTIATING RELIGION: Inquiries Into the History Workshop 3 and Present of Religious Negotiating Religion Accommodation in Urban Space
    Workshop 3 LONDON’SNEGOTIATING GLOBAL RELIGION: UNIVERSITY in Urban Space Workshop Series NEGOTIATING RELIGION: Inquiries into the History Workshop 3 and Present of Religious Negotiating Religion Accommodation in Urban Space Research Initiative Religion and Society @ UCL’s Grand Challenge of Intercultural Interaction Workshop 3 NEGOTIATING RELIGION: in Urban Space RATIONALE OF THE WORKSHOP SERIES - NEGOTIATING RELIGION Throughout history, religious belief and religious affiliation have been extremely powerful factors in shaping human societies. They have defined individual identities and communities, governed the relationship between commonwealths, and inspired human creativity. Religious hopes and fears have also contributed to the unleashing of conflict and violence. For an overwhelming and growing majority of people living on our planet today, religious belief answers questions central to the human existence and allows it to cope with difficult or decisive moments as well as with the rhythm of everyday life. Over the past generations, however, stark regional and social differences have emerged regarding the place and impact of religious belief. In a world marked more than ever before by migration and global connectivity, societies which tend towards religious neutrality or indifference need to define anew their relationship to communities with strong religious commitments. In the past as well as today, the relationship between individual and community, between different confessions and religious communities, between these communities and the state, are negotiated in complex processes of moderation, sometimes involving conflict or even violence. This series of four workshops presents and debates the complex processes through which religious communities create or defend their place in a given commonwealth, both in history and in our world today.
