Fudge the Elf
1 Fudge The Elf Ken Reid The Laura Maguire collection Published October 2019 All Rights Reserved Sometime in the late nineteen nineties, my daughter Laura, started collecting Fudge books, the creation of the highly individual Ken Reid. The books, the daily strip in 'The Manchester Evening News, had been a part of my childhood. Laura and her brother Adam avidly read the few dog eared volumes I had managed to retain over the years. In 2004 I created a 'Fudge The Elf' website. This brought in many contacts, collectors, individuals trying to find copies of the books, Ken's Son, the illustrator and colourist John Ridgeway, et al. For various reasons I have decided to take the existing website off-line. The PDF faithfully reflects the entire contents of the original website.

A Discourse Analysis of Pigs in Motion Pictures
Cinematic “Pigness”: A Discourse Analysis of Pigs in Motion Pictures By Mark von Schlemmer Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Catherine Preston ____________________________ Chairperson Chuck Berg ______________________________ Tamara Falicov ______________________________ Kevin Willmott ______________________________ Barbara Barnett ______________________________ Date defended: July 2, 2010 Acceptance Page This Dissertation Committee for Mark von Schlemmer certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Cinematic “Pigness”: A Discourse Analysis of Pigs in Motion Pictures Catherine Preston ____________________________ Chairperson Chuck Berg ______________________________ Tamara Falicov ______________________________ Kevin Willmott ______________________________ Barbara Barnett ______________________________ Date Approved: July 28, 2010 ii Abstract The representations of “others” in film have been contentious since filmmaking began. Fraught with misrepresentations, cinema has been held responsible, and occasionally credited, for influencing cultural practices and helping to shape discourses in American society. This study suggests that the media representations of nonhuman animals also have a profound effect on how Americans think about animals and that these representations warrant examination to uncover the naturalized messages and assumptions that are presented about animals. Explored here are the extent to which these images depict animal-ness – moments of authentic nonhuman behavior or experience that are not simply a reflection of humanity but have meaning for the animals themselves. This study highlights the case of “food animals” – specifically pigs. The disjunction between how we represent them – the narratological roles they fill in animal films – and the way that actual pigs are used in American society is vast and disturbing. -

Press 2 March 2021 Somerset House to Celebrate the Beano & the Art Of
FAD Magazine Somerset house to celebrate the beano & the art of breaking rules Mark Westall 2 March 2021 Somerset house to celebrate the beano & the art of breaking rules Dennis and Gnasher, Minnie the Minx, Bash Street Kids and the rest of the Beano gang take over Somerset House this autumn in a contemporary celebration of the world’s longest-running comic. This autumn, Somerset House presents Beano: The Art of Breaking the Rules, a major exhibition celebrating the world’s longest- running weekly comic and a British cultural icon: Beano. First released in 1938 and still crafted weekly from its home in Dundee, Beano has entertained and inspired across the decades, forming a lasting impact on the contemporary cultural landscape and, crucially, on today’s artists themselves, by always applying one simple rule – rules should be broken. This landmark exhibition explores both Beano’s and contemporary art’s unruliness and irreverence, through the eyes of extraordinary artists who embody the Beano sensibility of rebellion. Image: Minnie the Minx, 2020. Courtesy of Beano. In the 70th year of Beano’s top mischief-maker Dennis, Beano: The Art of Breaking the Rules will feature original comic drawings, never previously seen in public, selected across its 4,000-plus editions (to date) and rare archive artefacts, alongside works from leading artists and designers, imbued with the same Beano spirit of breaking the rules. Contributors include artists Bedwyr Williams, Hardeep Pandhal, Fourth Plinth artist Heather Phillipson, Holly Hendry, Lindsey Mendick, Sarah Lucas, Simeon Barclay andeditorial cartoonist Martin Rowson. Rebellion has always been at the heart of pioneering artistic practice, and for the past 82 years Beano has been right there too, inspiring generations of young people to discover the possibilities and sense of freedom that come through creativity. -
