The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games have inspired a fantastic programme of activity across the UK and this Guide captures those creative and cultural events that define Scotland’s response to this amazing global event during this Year of Creative Scotland. Scotland’s programme is not only diverse and exciting, it is rooted in our ongoing plans for creative and cultural celebration – not just during this year of Olympic and Paralympic celebration but through to 2014, when we will be celebrating the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games and our second year of Homecoming. This year, Scotland’s culture and creativity is being celebrated in communities across the country and on the international stage. We are proud that the fantastic programme of events enjoyed in Scotland every year is enhanced by the London 2012 Festival and the great Scottish contribution for the Cultural Olympiad and Torch Relay and Paralympic Flame Festival. The programme is so rich and diverse that our communities and our visitors alike will definitely find something here to delight, to enjoy and to inspire. We have much to celebrate in 2012, the Year of Creative Scotland, and I warmly invite you to join us. Fiona Hyslop MSP Cabinet Secretary for Culture and External Affairs page 1 Introduction Scotland is in a unique position due to the proximity and profile of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games. At the heart of London 2012 is Pierre de Coubertin’s 1894 vision of art, sport and education coming together in one celebration within a UK-wide Cultural Olympiad. The modern Olympic movement was designed to promote the practice of sport and the joy derived from effort. The Games aimed to build a better world by bringing together people from around the globe to compete to the best of their abilities in the spirit of fair play and friendship. The Commonwealth Games’ core values are humanity, equality and destiny and, like the Olympic and Paralympic Games, culture is an integral part. It is used to celebrate both sporting achievement and the gathering of many nations and people. Creative Scotland recognises that this context provides an unprecedented opportunity for commissioning new cultural experiences for Scotland’s diverse communities and visitors to encourage richer participation and create new sites and settings for the cultural sector to develop their work. In doing so Creative Scotland is bringing together a cultural programme that presents a fresh, sophisticated and contemporary image of Scotland while building a long-lasting, meaningful cultural legacy that contributes to the quality of our daily lives. Combined, both Games present one incredible opportunity for Scotland to present an inspiring programme of extraordinary cultural activity ranging from spectacle and ceremony to more intimate experiences. Activity takes place in a diverse range of settings to illustrate and illuminate the distinct layers and rich cultural context of Scotland, creating moments, places and spaces, experiences, impressions and memories of a country that is truly creative. Creative Scotland’s role is to develop a cultural programme of activity in partnership with Scotland’s cultural sector and to build UK and international cultural collaborations. Creative Scotland is working in close partnership with London 2012, Legacy Trust UK, Glasgow 2014, Glasgow Life and The Scottish Government to realise creative ambitions for both events. At the heart of Scotland’s London 2012 Cultural Programme are the creative people that are collaborating, partnering and striving to meet the ambition and aspiration set out by London 2012 and Creative Scotland to create a summer like no other. This, set within the Year of Creative Scotland, is the perfect atmosphere to prepare for Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, when Scotland will become the focus of the world’s attention. Leonie Bell, Creative Programmer, London 2012 and Glasgow 2014 2 Iain Munro, Director of Creative Development, Creative Scotland page ‘Every element of this exhilarating programme is a testament to the quality of Scotland’s creative talent. The programme has been produced in partnership with Creative Scotland’s great skills in developing strong creative collaborations which will be an asset as the country prepares to welcome the Commonwealth Games in 2014.’ Ruth Mackenzie London 2012, Director of Culture and Director of London 2012 Festival page 3 Programme areas The London 2012 Festival is the biggest cultural festival the UK has ever seen, with artists from all over the world taking part, and millions of opportunities to join in across the UK. The London 2012 Festival is the climax of the Cultural Olympiad and runs from 21 June to 9 September 2012. www.festival.london2012.com The London 2012 Cultural Olympiad is the largest cultural celebration in the history of the modern Olympic and Paralympic Movements. Running from 2008–2012, it is designed to give everyone in the UK a chance to be part of London 2012 and inspire creativity across all forms of culture. 16 million people across the UK have taken part so far. www.london2012.com/cultural-olympiad The Olympic Torch Relay will shine a light on the whole of the UK – from dynamic urban areas to places of outstanding natural beauty. Representing peace, unity and friendship, the Flame will be carried by 8,000 inspirational Torchbearers during the relay. Summer of Song: Celebrating the Olympic Torch Relay in Scotland enables every area of Scotland to welcome the Torch on its journeys. www.london2012.com/olympic-torch-relay Paralympic Torch Relay Celebrating the power of human endeavour and energy, the London 2012 Paralympic Torch Relay will see Flame Festivals staged in London, Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff from 24-27 August followed by the Paralympic Flame Lighting Ceremony in Stoke Mandeville on 28 August.

    1 Update Report on the Winning Years Prepared for the Scottish

    Update Report on The Winning Years Prepared for the Scottish Parliament’s Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee 9 September 2013 INTRODUCTION This report updates the Scottish Parliament’s Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee on the activity and results from The Winning Years; eight milestones over three years which VisitScotland and partners have been promoting to, and working with, the tourism industry on. The overall ambition behind the development of the Winning Years concept is to ensure that the tourism industry and wider visitor economy is set to take full advantage of the long-term gains over the course of the next few years. The paper is divided into sections covering each of the milestones: Year of Creative Scotland The 2012 London Olympics The Diamond Jubilee Disney.Pixar’s Brave Year of Natural Scotland The Commonwealth Games The 2014 Ryder Cup Homecoming Scotland 2014 (incl. up to date list of events) From this report Committee members will see that excellent progress has been made, with strong interest in Scotland’s tourism product from around the world as the country builds to welcome the world in 2014. All of this despite the continuing global economic difficulties. Evidence of bucking the global trend and the success of the 2012 Winning Years milestones can be seen in VisitScotland’s announcement at the end of August that its two main marketing campaigns brought nearly £310m additional economic benefit for Scotland since January 2012. This is a rise of 14% on the same period the year before. VisitScotland’s international campaigns target Scotland’s main markets across the globe including North America, Germany and France as well as emerging markets, such as India and China.

    Research & Development White Paper WHP 289 March 2015 Covering the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games using IP Studio Alexander Rawcliffe BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION White Paper WHP 289 Covering the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games using IP Studio Alexander Rawcliffe Abstract BBC Research & Development’s IP Studio project is investigating the use of an IP-based infrastructure for live broadcasting, using a combination of theoretical design and experimental prototyping. During the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, IP Studio technology was used to produce a live ‘IP-end-to-end’ outside broadcast. Using network connectivity provided by Virgin Media, JANET and the BBC, live ultra-high definition video was captured from cameras in several competition venues, and delivered into a software-defined production system. Ancillary production facilities such as talkback and camera tally indicators were also implemented using the same IP network. This facilitated a highly distributed production workflow, with operational tasks being undertaken at several sites throughout the UK. Final programme output was delivered over IP using MPEG-DASH, and also broadcast from selected existing digital terrestrial television (DTT) transmitter locations using HEVC compression over DVB-T2. This paper describes the components and configuration of the IP Studio system used during the games, and explores the geographically distributed, collaborative workflows it enabled.

    No Longer and Not Yet

    1 Title: No Longer and Not Yet Author: Edward Hollis Architecture_media_politics_society. vol. 3, no.2. September 2013 Photograph: Edward Hollis The forest of Kilmahew, around twenty miles west of Glasgow, conceals an architectural cautionary tale. In the 1960’s, the landscape was radically transformed by a building. St Peter’s seminary was built to house around a hundred catholic novices. Its plan and section, the work of the architects Gillespie Kidd and Coia, were a rigorous statement of the modernist maxim that form follows function. But within a ARCHITECTURE_MEDIA_POLITICS_SOCIETY Vol. 3, no.2. July 2013 1 2 decade, there were not enough priests to fill it; and St Peter’s became a form without a function. That was 1987, and since then it has resisted numerous attempts to provide it with a new one: designed as closely as it was to a specific programme, the building remains empty, and derelict. It is no longer what it used to be, and not yet what it can be. The caution is simple: design a building programmatically, and you’ll end up with a ruin. This author has been involved since the Venice Biennale of 2010 with a new proposal for St Peter’s led by the Glasgow arts collective NVA (Nacionale Vitae Activa). We have no images of what it will look like, or when it will be ready. St Peter’s isn’t going to be restored any time soon. Instead, we propose to leave the building perpetually incomplete – both ruin and building site. It’s a model of what all buildings should be: they are, in environmental terms, expensive.

    SCOTLAND’S FILM AND TELEVISION STUDIO AND BUILDSPACE OVER 10K SQ FT JULY 2020 Welcome In addition to the free locations finding and research service provided to those wanting to film in Scotland, the Screen Commission Team at Screen Scotland recognise that filmmakers need good quality studio and set building spaces, and have compiled this list of studios, empty warehouses and potential buildspace. The list will provide a full and detailed record of industrial space available in Scotland, and will also show which productions have used the space previously. As this is a working document, the list is subject to change and inclusion in this list does not guarantee that a space will be available. The Screen Commission Team at Screen Scotland has compiled the list: it is up to the production to deal with owners directly, arrange for the use of the space and complete all the necessary paperwork. Creative Scotland cannot be held responsible for the state of the buildings. Please be aware that some spaces may require cleaning or additional blackout/soundproofing. We are happy to amend any details if they are incorrect. www.screen.scot | @screenscots [email protected] July 2020 Contents BBC Studios – Dumbarton 4 BBC Studios – Pacific Quay 6 Buchanan Business Park – Glasgow 8 First Stage Studios – Edinburgh 10 Parkhouse Business Park – Glasgow 12 Pyramids Business Park – Bathgate 14 The Shed – Glasgow 16 Wardpark Studios – Cumbernauld 18 Westway – Renfrew Glasgow 20 3 BBC Scotland Dumbarton Studios Name of site BBC Scotland – Dumbarton

    ECC Report 306 CEPT investigations on possible usage of low power audio PMSE in the band 960-1164 MHz approved 6 March 2020 ECC REPORT 306 - Page 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction: For many years, CEPT has worked on identifying suitable long-term solutions for wireless microphones to compensate for the reduced spectrum availability within the “UHF TV broadcast band", as a result of the introduction of IMT systems in the 800 MHz band, following decision at WRC-07, and planned complete reallocation of the 700 MHz band to the mobile service following decisions at WRC-12 and WRC-15. CEPT discussions on the possible introduction of PMSE within the band 960-1164 MHz were triggered by the decision by Ofcom in the United Kingdom to make the band available in the UK to low power (<17 dBm) audio PMSE in March 2016. Ofcom (UK), was invited ECC #42, Stockholm, June 2016 to present the work undertaken. Investigations on regulatory and legal issues on the feasibility of introducing low power audio PMSE in the band 960-1164 MHz: Appendix 1 addresses various regulatory and legal issues with regard to the feasibility of introducing audio PMSE in the frequency band 960-1164 MHz. Within the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio Regulations (RRs) the frequency band 960- 1164 MHz is allocated to the Aeronautical Radionavigation Service (ARNS), Aeronautical Mobile (Route) Service AM(R)S and in part to the Aeronautical Mobile-Satellite (Route) Service (AMS(R)S) (Earth-to-space). In addition, the frequency band is shared with Link 16, a military datalink and communications system and Radiolocation Systems for Short Range Navigation (RSBN), a military short-range navigation system.
