Cover illustration: credit to Alicia Fernandes FOOD AND DRINK Food and Drink Ammu Indian Cooking to Nourish the Soul Asma Khan A heart-warming cookbook of comforting aromatic Indian flavours, from Asma Khan of Darjeeling Express and Netflix fame Food from home, cooked with heart. This book is a collection of recipes from Asma’s childhood, her Indian family kitchen. A celebration of where she comes from, of home-cooking, and the inextricable link between food and love. It is a chance for her to honour her ammu (mother), and to share with you the recipes that made her and root her to home. This book is a joyful celebration of memories of food, and its power to heal, restore and comfort. Asma includes her ammu's comfort food from her childhood, the recipes with which she taught Asma to cook, celebratory food (for births, deaths, weddings and all those special occasions in-between), slow-cooked recipes passed through the generations of her family and, finally, her own recipes, now that Asma herself is an ammu - all quick and easy, mixing the ingredients she has at hand in London with her favourite spices to offer immediate comfort. Asma Khan (@asmakhanlondon) is the chef and owner of Darjeeling Express in London. She moved to Cambridge from Calcutta in 1991 where she studied Law before completing a PhD in British Constitutional Law at King's College London. Now residing in London with her husband and two boys, she comes from a royal background – Rajput on her father’s side and Bengali on her mother’s. Cooking was always her passion and she began her food career in 2012 as a supper club in her home. In 2015, she opened a pop-up in a Soho pub to much acclaim, and Darjeeling Express the restaurant opened its doors in June 2017. A year later, her debut cookbook Asma’s Indian Kitchen was published by Pavilion, a Gourmand World Cookbook Awards Winner. Khan is the first British chef to feature in Netflix's Emmy nominated Chef's Table. 3 March 2022 | Laura Higginson for Ebury Press | 256 pp | Format (mm): 246 x 189 | US Rights: PRH UK | Translation Rights: PRH UK Food and Drink Mezcla Ixta Belfrage Reinventing 'fusion' flavours with simple, relaxing recipes to make cooking for yourself and others easy, from the co-author of bestselling Ottolenghi FLAVOUR.

  • Choice and Representation in New York City's Selective Exam Schools
    Rice Examiner The Ethics of Eating: A Comparative Study of Sustainable Restaurants in Austin, TX and London, UK Hope Lawrence A pressure is building which is bound to revolutionize the con- sumption habits of the developed world. It comes from the changes we are witnessing first hand—as global weather patterns continually reach new extremes and the oceans fill with plastics, we find homes flooded under nearly fifty inches of water and tangled, poisoned animals washed up on our beaches. A new crisis emerges from every direction, making the task of finding solutions daunting. Corporations are capable of large-scale impacts but prioritize profit over morality, so although the individual con- sumer is responsible only for a fraction of the environmental toll currently burdening our planet, consumers must be held accountable for imple- menting the changes they want to see. As activist and author Anna Lappé so eloquently said, “every time you spend money, you’re casting a vote for the kind of world you want” (Lappé, 2010). Change in mass consump- tion habits may be achieved through a cultural shift in the ethics of our purchases, both lowering individual impacts while effectively and directly relating a company’s environmental initiatives and commercial profits to one another. Ethical consumption is a broad subject, making it dangerously undefinable and thus uncontrollable in marketing. The very idea of a perfectly ethical consumer is impossible to achieve due to the complexity of commercial ethics—one must consider a product’s materials’ origin, workers’ treatment and wages all along the chain of production, the product’s life span post-disposal, and much more.

  • The Itinerant Illustration: Creating Storyworlds in the Reader’S Space Steve Braund
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Falmouth University Research Repository (FURR) The Itinerant Illustration: Creating storyworlds in the reader’s space Steve Braund Imagine if you will an illustrated story, comprising of still images and text, with all its characters, plotline and narrative tension, but the world of that story [the diegesis], extends outwards from the printed page [or e-book], into what I am going to call here, the reader’s space. This paper explores the storytelling potential of direct address [otherwise known as breaking the fourth wall], by which I mean moments where fictional characters look out from their still-image world, whether picture-book, graphic novel or comic, into ours. It will consider the possibility of creating fictional worlds by employing direct address to generate narrative in the real time and space of the reader. This phenomenon is at the core of games design, where, through interactivity, real-time moving-image and sound, aim to give their audience the experience of actually being in the story itself. According to Professor of Digital Games, Tanya Krzywinska, ‘Digital games trade on putting you in a position of the “other”, on inhabiting a character’s perspective, on presenting multiple points of view.’ There are many examples like Minecraft, Skyrim, and World of Warcraft that demonstrate the storytelling prowess of digital gaming. There are games you can play, put down and return to, like Everquest, DOTA and League of Legends, known as jump-in, jump-out games. And one of the best examples is the earlier PS Vita system game, Tear-away, where the hand-held device has a back-plate and hand-roll for the players fingers, which then appear within the game transposed onto the screen along with real-time video of their face as they play.

  • Understanding Manga, Comics and Graphic Novels. Dr Mel
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Northumbria Research Link ‘So what is this mango, anyway?’ Understanding manga, comics and graphic novels. Dr Mel Gibson. Literacy Consultant and Senior Lecturer, University of Northumbria. Graphic novels, comics and manga can play an important part in encouraging reading for pleasure amongst students of any age and also have a role in teaching in many subject areas. I’m going to offer a small snapshot of the least well known of these, manga, below, but want to start with a few general points about the comic strip medium. Graphic novels, comics and manga are often seen as texts specifically for younger male reluctant readers, but such an assumption underestimates this enormously flexible medium, as it can be used to create complex works of fiction or non-fiction for adults and young adults, male and female, as well as humourous stories for the very young. The comic strip has been used to create a range of work that encompasses the superb Alice in Sunderland, by British creator Bryan Talbot, which explores memory, history and the nature of narrative, drawing on poetry, plays and novels, as well as other comics from around the world, as well as the slapstick humour of The Beano, with it’s cross-generational appeal and playful approach to language and image. It also includes television spin-offs, most notably, perhaps, The Simpsons and Futurama, which offer clever, witty takes on family, relationships and media, as well as genres that have generated spin-offs in other media, like superhero comics, themselves capable of addressing a huge range of ages and abilities.

  • "Licensing Music Works and Transaction Costs in Europe”
    "Licensing music works and transaction costs in Europe” Final study September 2012 1 Acknowledgements: KEA would like to thank Google, the internet services company, for financing which made this study possible. The study was carried out independently and reflects the views of KEA alone. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Establishing and running online music services is a complex task, raising both technical and legal difficulties. This is particularly the case in Europe, where complex rights licensing structures hinder the development of the market and the launch of new innovative online services. Compared to the US, Europe is lagging behind in terms of digital music revenue. Furthermore, the development of the market is fairly disparate among different countries in the European Union. This study aims to identify and analyse transaction costs in music licensing. It examines the online music markets and outlines the licensing processes faced by online services. It offers a qualitative and quantitative analysis of transaction costs in the acquisition of the relevant rights by online music services. The study also suggests different ways of decreasing transaction costs. The research focuses on three countries (the UK, Spain and the Czech Republic) and builds on data collected through a survey with online music service providers available in the three countries as well as interviews with relevant stakeholders in the field of music licensing. THE EUROPEAN ONLINE MUSIC MARKET The music industry has steadily expanded over the past few years, away from selling CDs towards selling music online or through concerts and live music. (Masnick, Ho, 2012). Among the 500 licensed online music services in the world (according to IFPI), many emulate the physical record store, by offering ‘download to own’ tracks at a similar price point.
