It is important to mainstream rock was perhaps no more evident or lucrative than within the understand that Western cultures inherently possess a privilege that can musical career trajectory of the wildly popular new wave group, the Police be used to take advantage of other societies—especially those (1977–1983), comprised of lead singer/songwriter Sting (Gordon Sumner), comprising the so-called “third world.” The Police owe their substantial guitarist Andy Summers, drummer Stewart Copeland, and a promotional success to this imbalance, directly adapting the distinctive music cadre of behind-the-scenes agents and businessmen. Their particular practices of a foreign culture for their own musical purposes and industrial rock model enjoyed startlingly quick, widespread renown and recordings to create a sound that was unlike most popular rock groups success—within only a couple of years of their formation, the Police had of their time.

49 UP A Film by Michael Apted 135 minutes, color & b/w, 2005, UK First Run Features 630 Ninth Avenue, Suite 1213 New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600/Fax (212) 989-7649 email: [email protected] www.firstrunfeatures.com SYNOPSIS 49 Up , the latest installment of Granada’s landmark documentary series, revisits the group of people whose lives have been documented since they were seven, to see where they are now as they approach their half century. The original Seven Up was broadcast in 1964 as a one-off World in Action Special featuring children who were selected from different backgrounds and social spheres to talk about their hopes and dreams for the future. As members of the generation who would be running the country by the year 2000, what did they think they would become? Inspired by World in Action founder Tim Hewat’s passionate interest in both the Jesuit saying “Give me the child until he is seven and I will show you the man” and the rigid class system of 1960s Britain, Seven Up set out to discover whether or not the children’s lives were pre-determined by their backgrounds. The result was ground-breaking television – the very first example of a program recording real people living real lives – and the follow-up films have won an array of awards. Director Michael Apted, who has since moved to Hollywood to direct films including Gorky Park , The Coal Miner’s Daughter , The World Is Not Enough and Gorillas in the Mist , has returned every seven years to chart the children’s progress through life. -

It was a bit of a strawman. Something I thought might burn on exposure to the outside world. But so far it seems to have stayed somewhat flameproof, and hence now creates an opportunity to explore it a little more broadly. I thought what I’d do here is look at, probably the most important zone on the Landscape, the place where organisations, and especially innovation teams need to be in order to ensure that they have a chance of success in their endeavours. -
