Entitled The Frog, and commissioned in association with Bedford Creative Arts, the artwork by William Rounce was installed as part of the on-going development of Riverside Square. Taking its inspiration from Bedford’s brick-making past, the panels depict repeated images of the ‘frog’ or top of a brick and were commissioned by the developers of Riverside Bedford specifically to conceal an electricity substation that is situated on the square. William has also created an art trail for visitors to explore the inspiration for the piece. It includes the ‘Somewhere in England’ gallery at the Higgins Bedford, where William researched the Stewartby brickworks and saw the brick mould that ultimately formed the basis for the panels’ design. The Frog isn’t the only element of Riverside Bedford to have taken inspiration from the brickworks. Both Zizzi’s and Gourmet Burger Kitchen have referenced the town’s industrial heritage in their interior design, with exposed brickwork in evidence in both restaurants. As with most things in Bedford, the artwork has divided opinion, particularly among the many figurative art connoisseurs and critics. ‘But it’s not a frog’ and ‘When’s the hoarding being taken down?’ are typical of the ‘below the line’ comments on social media. We’re looking forward to seeing how the Frog blends into the publics’ consciousness over time; as visitors experience it up-close, understand it’s relevance to our social history and enjoy the visual trickery of the concave and convex ‘frog’ patterns. Once all of the Riverside Bedford building work is complete, all the units are filled and the square’s trees have matured, the Frog will no doubt become part of the furniture and something that everyone - even the figurative art fans - can grow to love. “Delightfully freaky" THE TELEGRAPH THE TWINS MACABRE: PLAYTIME Thursday 26 Oct, 7.00pm Maurice and Ivy Macabre are 10-year- Ticket price old psychic siblings who have a £12.50 penchant for finger painting and (£10.50 concessions) murder.

  • 2 to Be Somebody: Ambition and the Desire to Be Different
    2 To Be Somebody: Ambition and the Desire to Be Different The context for difference This chapter aims to identify some of the bands that enjoyed chart success during the late 1970s and ’80s and identify their artistic traits by means of conversations with band members and those close to the bands. This chapter does not claim to be a definitive account or an inclusive list of innovative bands but merely a viewpoint from some of the individuals who were present at the time and involved in music, creativity and youth culture. Some of these individuals were in the eye of the storm while others were more on the periphery. However, common themes emerge and testify to the Scouse resilience identified in the previous chapter. Also, identifying objective truth is a difficult task, as one band member will often have a view of his band’s history that conflicts with that of other members of the same band. As such, it is acknowledged that this chapter presents only selective viewpoints. Trying something new: In what ways were the Liverpool bands creative and different? ‘Liverpool has always made me brave, choice-wise. It was never a city that criticized anyone for taking a chance.’ David Morrissey1 In terms of creativity, the theory underpinning this book which was stated in Chapter 1 is that successful Liverpool bands in the 1980s were different from each other and did not attempt to follow the latest local or national pop music trends. None of the bands interviewed falls into the categories of punk, disco or New Romantic, which were popular trends at the time.

February 2009 saw the legendary Selectadisc bite the dust after forty years of trading. Twelve months later Funky Monkey on Pelham Street closed, which was a sad loss to local soul, funk and house DJs. Then this year began with OhMyGosh on Mansfield Road shutting up business after several years of serving up fat hip-hop beats. The latter blow was slightly mitigated by the fact that Bantum clothing have taken over the building to sell ace NG-centric t-shirts and hoodies. But all in all this is still a very worrying trend for music lovers everywhere… So when an event like Record Store Day comes along (Saturday 16 April) we decided to throw our full support behind it and celebrate those independent record shops in Notts still left standing.

This is a special commemorative centenary issue which we dedicate to the memory of Robert Louis Stevenson, writer extraordinaire. He was the originator of the concept of Student. He brought out a magazine, the forerunner to Student, at this university, with the idea of its being produced by students, for students. Little d id he realise that his idea was to develop and reach its 100th birthday. This issue is therefore a landmark in the history of student newspapers. The experience of working on Student has also been extrem ely beneficial to many. We hope that you will keep and treasure this historic issue of Student, with its added colour. Look out for Gerry Sadowitz, an up-and-coming Scottish comedian who is currently the toast of the trendies in London.
