  • The Night and Cultural Benefit: the Case for a Holistic Approach to Licensing
    Roberts, M, et al. 2020. The Night and Cultural Benefit: The Case for A Holistic Approach to Licensing. Entertainment and Sports Law Journal, 18: 9, pp. 1–10. DOI: https://doi.org/10.16997/eslj.245 ARTICLE The Night and Cultural Benefit: The Case for A Holistic Approach to Licensing Marion Roberts, Adam Eldridge, Guy Osborn and Simon Flacks University of Westminster, GB Corresponding author: Marion Roberts ([email protected]) This research article critically engages with the Licensing Act (2003), arguing for a more holistic approach to licensing. Drawing on primary research conducted in London for the Greater London Authority (GLA), the article considers the benefits of licensed venues and the possibility of extending current licensing objectives to recognise the role of these venues in sustaining urban vitality. The current licensing objec- tives are geared towards minimising negative outcomes, the assumption being that licensing is primarily a tool of control, with the role of minimising harm. The argument developed here is based on two alterna- tive conceptions of the role of licensing. Firstly, licensing has a key role to play in developing sites for sociability and community cohesion. Though focused around alcohol, licensing is central to enabling or constraining more traditional as well as emerging spaces which combine entertainment, dining and other experimental forms of leisure. Second, the article argues that by addressing urban vitality and cultural benefit, the Act could be more attuned to the positive influence of licensed premises on a broader scale. The need for planning and licensing to work more cooperatively is considered in light of how licensing decisions reach beyond individual venues and impact on entire neighbourhoods or areas.

  • The Sounds of Science Music Project
    Issue 65 February 2010 A NEWSLETTER OF THE ROCKEFELLER UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY THE SOUNDS OF SCIENCE MUSIC PROJECT John LaCava When do sounds become music? An answer to this question has been sought in the realm of audio recording since the 1940s, start- ing within the genre known as musique concrète. One does not need to dig back that far to find primary examples of artists incorporat- ing sounds not derived from traditional instruments, or electronic synthesis, into their compositions. Off the top of my head: Square Pusher, Amon Tobin, and Matmos are all relevant and well-known examples of this sort of artist. People are using diverse sources of sound as the basis of successful and popular musical compositions. They must have figured out when sounds become music. Some examples produced by the above artists can be consid- ered quite niche, and others more popular. With this in mind, I want to tell you about a little project I have going: The Sounds of Science (SoS) Music Project. This project takes audio samples de- rived from recordings made in biology laboratories and uses those samples as a big part of the basis for a composition with musi- cal appeal to a broad audience. That’s right, the SoS team, armed with microphones and recording gear, stomped into the lab and recorded the sounds of machines and apparatus found commonly in biology laboratories. The sounds recorded were basic things like water bath shakers, centrifuges whirring, magnetic stir bars stir- ring in liquid filled carboys, Falcon tubes of liquid being vortexed and high pressure air valves releasing.
