  • Eisteddfod Branding
    The National Eisteddfod The National Eisteddfod is Wales’ largest festival, held alternately in north and south Wales, celebrating the Welsh language and culture of Wales. Its history can be traced back to the court of the Lord Rhys in 1176, with the modern day Eisteddfod held every year bar one since 1861. The festival has evolved and developed greatly over the past ten years, with over 1,000 events held across the Maes (site) during the eight-day festival. The Eisteddfod also plays host to over 200 competitions, with many of these held in the main Pavilion during the week. The other events are held across the Maes, some in semi- permanent buildings and others in attractive tents and yurts, such as Tŷ Gwerin and Caffi Maes B. We know the Eisteddfod and the community project are unique. Our brand needs to celebrate and embrace this uniqueness. Information on the festival and all events can be found online, www.eisteddfod.wales The project The Eisteddfod is looking to rebrand the festival and the organisation over the next year. The Eisteddfod festival is an iconic brand, the word itself is known across the world, and our brand needs to reflect this, with the word playing a central part in any graphic. Typography is very important to us. With so many events and activities held during the week and the community project, the typography must be strong and instantly recognisable – emphasising the uniqueness of the festival and the project and its central place in the culture of Wales. The successful agency will need to deliver a brand which overcomes a number of challenges.

  • The Welsh Welsh – Y Cymry Cymreig: a Study of Cultural Exclusion Among Rural- Dwelling Older People Using a Critical Human Ecological ­Framework
    International Journal of Ageing and Later Life, 2018 12(2): 119–151. The Author doi: 10.3384/ijal.1652-8670.18399 The welsh Welsh – Y Cymry cymreig: A study of cultural exclusion among rural- dwelling older people using a critical human ecological framework BY BETHAN WINTER & VANESSA BURHOLT Abstract Research on cultural exclusion has not kept apace with transformations to rural populations, economy, family structures and community relationships. Cultural exclusion refers to the extent to which people are able or willing to conform to cultural norms and values. We theorise cultural exclusion using the critical human ecological framework and social comparison theory, taking into account period effects, area effects and cohort and/or lifecourse effects. Qualitative case studies in three rural areas of South Wales (United Kingdom) synthesise data from life- history interviews, life-history calen- dars, documentary sources and focus groups (n = 56). Our findings suggest that cultural exclusion is an issue for rural-dwelling older people, which they describe by temporal self- comparison and group comparisons. The critical human ecological framework provides new insight into the drivers (industrial decline, policy and population change, a shift from collectivism to individualism), and outcomes (sense of belonging, community cohesion) of cultural exclusion experienced by rural-dwelling older people. Bethan Winter & Vanessa Burholt, Centre for Innovative Ageing, College of Human and Health Sciences, Swansea University, Wales, UK. 119 International Journal of Ageing and Later Life Keywords: rurality, cultural exclusion, social comparison, critical human ecology, collectivism, individualism. Introduction This article focusses on the experience of cultural exclusion of older people living in rural areas of South Wales.

Historians, sociologists, political scientists and others are increasingly collaborating in their study of the evolution of Welsh identity. This concept which was for so long monopolised and marked by a strong reference to the Welsh language and the importance of having an ethnic Welsh identity is now giving way to a more inclusive notion of what it means to be Welsh.

  • Light Springs Through the Dark: a Vision for Culture in Wales FOREWORD Culture Is Important
    December 2016 Light Springs through the Dark: A Vision for Culture in Wales FOREWORD Culture is important. I am making this statement because I wish to… • Remind people how important culture is. At times like these it is more important than ever to people and communities; a vital buttress that protects and enhances our quality of life. • Promote more debate within Welsh politics and society about the value of culture, and how best we can work together to nurture and promote it. • Encourage bright ideas and initiatives, from whatever source. • Set out my ambitions for culture for this Assembly term, and unite our efforts across Government to extract maximum value from our investment in Culture. The Welsh Government is fully national goals. As the goal is described committed to culture. By ‘culture’, or this is about creating ‘a society that ‘diwylliant’ in Welsh, we mean the arts, promotes and protects culture, heritage music, literature and heritage or put and the Welsh language, and which another way, all of the creative activities encourages people to participate in the that give people purpose, and a sense of arts, and sports and recreation’. belonging and identity. However there is work to be done to We see culture as a priority. We believe re-unite our country. The result of the in it for its own sake, and in supporting Referendum on EU membership showed it with public funds. Culture is central to that we have a divided society.

  • Gareth Bonello & Ben Mcmanus in Conversation
    Gareth Bonello & Ben McManus in Conversation Video Transcript GARETH: Cyfarchion, everybody. My name is Gareth Bonello, and in the window this way, or possibly this way, is Ben McManus. I’m in Cardiff, and Ben is over in Aberystwyth. The Smithsonian has asked us to do some programs, do some songs, do some talking about the 2009 program in the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, which featured Wales as a host country, and so we met up last week and recorded some songs. And also, we did do an interview outside in Ben’s garden in Aberystwyth, but unfortunately it was a bit windy, so the audio was unusable, so we’re having to do the interview again, this time via “dreaded Zoom” so our apologies for the Zoom. BEN: Modern day of recording, sign of the times. GARETH: Exactly. But hopefully the content will be interesting enough to distract you from the monotony of looking at yet another Zoom interview. So, we’re just going to talk a little about the year of Wales in 2009 when we went over to the Smithsonian Folklife Festival in Washington, D.C. I was very lucky to be invited over, and performed there under my stage name, The Gentle Good. And we’re also going to talk about Ben’s time working as an intern in the Smithsonian archive, and his more recent work looking at archives and metadata for his master’s. So, we’re going to do a quick interview, and it’s going to be cut with some of our musical performances.
