Gary Numan - Hammersmith Apollo, London - November 28, 2014
1 Gary Numan - Hammersmith Apollo, London - November 28, 2014 by Mireille Beaulieu Original French version © Obsküre magazine - http://www.obskuremag.net http://www.obskuremag.net/articles/gary-numan-live-hammersmith-apollo-londres- 28112014/ Gary Numan’s recent concert at London’s Hammersmith Apollo had long been announced as a major event. This show was the crowning moment of the world tour Numan had undertaken in October 2013, as he was promoting his new album Splinter (Songs from a broken mind ). Undoubtedly one of the artist’s major works, Splinter garnered unparalleled public and critical acclaim. It even entered the UK Top 20 – the first Numan album to do so since Warriors in 1983. Gary Numan started this long tour in the US before visiting the UK, Ireland, Israel, continental Europe (but sadly not Paris), Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Photos: Louise Barnes and Jim Napier © Jim Napier 2 But it was also a “homecoming concert”, a return to his roots for Numan, who currently resides in Los Angeles. For the first time since 1996, he was to take over the Hammersmith Apollo, the legendary UK venue formerly known as the Hammersmith Odeon. This is where David Bowie killed off his Ziggy Stardust character in 1973... Around the same period, a teenage Gary (then still Gary Webb) would often attend gigs there. Then, with the explosion of the Numan phenomenon in 1979, the “Hammy” became for many years the London venue of his choice when he was touring. Gary, who was born in Hammersmith, obviously has a deep connection with the place.

Legitimacy and the Celebrity Single-Issue Candidate
Legitimacy and the celebrity single-issue candidate While news coverage of General Elections can be argued to ‘crowd out’ other topics of public interest in the public sphere, some saw the election as an opportunity to attract publicity to a cause. The artist Bob and Roberta Smith stood in Michael Gove’s Surrey Heath constituency in protest at the coalition’s changes to the education curriculum downgrading the importance of art, while the comedian Al Murray’s ‘Pub Landlord’ candidacy in South Thanet was presented, perhaps more ambiguously, as a satirical criticism of fellow candidate Nigel Farage (the initials of Murray’s ‘Free United Kingdom Party’ (FUKP) illustrating the blunt nature of any ironical intent). Murray’s manifesto pledged to brick up the channel tunnel using British bricks and Polish workers; Smith’s platform was built around placing art at the centre of the curriculum. Towards the end of the campaign, and notwithstanding the final outcome, legitimacy - in the sense of the various potential parliamentary combinations of the main parties - became a key media topic. To what extent was the legitimacy of candidates such as Murray and Smith questioned? Mainstream media coverage of Smith was limited, but some supportive niche media emphasised his artist-activist credentials. This is perhaps partly due to the ‘safe’ seat he was contesting, which was never likely to change hands; he could not be argued to be disrupting ‘legitimate’ electoral politics. The campaign was also constructed around a positive, niche single issue - the importance of art education both culturally and in economic terms - which could be treated by other candidates and the media as a legitimate (but marginal) topic.

Talkin' 'Bout a Revolution
1 Overview of talk We are not doing a comedy sketch we are doing a talk about politics which revolves around comedians Why are comedians like Brand & Grillo (or Dieudonné) capturing a political mood, in a way that pop stars would have done years ago? 2 Dieudonné Anelka doing the quenelle 3 The context, the background to our talk, is crisis. Or rather crises (plural). We currently face a set of intersecting crises. These include: 4 Economic crisis. Starting with the fi nancial crisis of 2007/08, which has generalised into a more or less global economic crisis – so-called Great Recession. Widening inequality: the top 1% increasingly living like sun gods, whilst for a rising proportion of the rest of us what Ed Miliband has been calling “the cost of living crisis” and what others have described as a crisis of social reproduction. That is, a crisis in our abilities to meet our need, to survive, and, increasingly, a crisis in our ability to imagine a better future, to hope. 5 Climate crisis 6 Energy crisis – these are the Alberta tar sands 7 Finally, there exists a crisis of political legitimacy, even a crisis of democracy. Plebgate is actually a rather minor chapter in this story. (No duck ponds or subscriptions to porn channels paid for by the taxpayer. No deaths in police custody or undercover offi cers fathering children by the women they’re spying on. No hacking into the phones of murdered school girls.) But what’s interesting about it is that it involves three major institutions or sets of actors: politicians, police and the Fourth Estate, the media.

Audiouk Response to Ofcom Call for Evidence Relating to BBC Sounds
AudioUK response to Ofcom call for evidence relating to BBC Sounds About the independent UK audio production sector 1. AudioUK is the trade body for the audio-led production sector in the UK. AudioUK has four core priorities: Business; Representation; Community; and Excellence – and has over 100 member companies based across the whole of the UK. AudioUK runs the Audiotrain skills programme. It also runs the Audio Production Awards, an annual celebration of the craft skills of audio production. AudioUK, along with Radiocentre, oversees the administration of the Audio Content Fund which distributes a grant from the UK government to fund public service content on commercial and community radio. As a member of the DCMS Broadcasting, Film and Production Working Group, AudioUK has produced guidelines for safe working in audio production during the coronavirus pandemic. 2. Outside of in-house radio and publishing production, audio production is carried out by a mixture of companies and self-employed individuals. In terms of companies we estimate there are between 180-200 SMEs spread around the UK. Traditionally audio production companies worked almost exclusively for the BBC, but activity has broadened out to podcasting, audiobooks and productions for commercial radio. The latter has been encouraged by the Audio Content Fund, which has created numerous new partnerships between indie audio production companies and commercial radio stations1. 3. We continue to support the existence of an independent and well-funded BBC, providing public service content to the Licence Fee Payer, nevertheless there is a real opportunity for the UK audio production sector to build its international reputation as a maker of first-class audio content, attracting more investment from partners such as podcast platforms, brands and national and international broadcasters.
