  • Community Mirror a Data-Driven Method for ‘Below the Radar’ Research
    Nesta Working Paper No. 15/07 Community Mirror A Data-Driven Method for ‘Below the Radar’ Research Gaia Marcus, RSA Jimmy Tidey, Royal College of Art Community Mirror A Data-Driven Method for ‘Below the Radar’ Research Gaia Marcus Jimmy Tidey RSA Royal College of Art Nesta Working Paper 15/07 May 2015 www.nesta.org.uk/wp15-07 Abstract This report presents the findings of a study undertaken between June 2014 and November 2014 with the LocalNets.org project at the Royal College of Art (RCA), using the RSA’s existing on-the-ground research conducted for the London Borough of Hounslow. This collaborative research project, Community Mirror, was carried out to understand the ways in which online data-gathering techniques compared to door-to- door research in understanding how a local community works. The study concludes that digital methodologies do offer a promising approach to mapping the ‘below the radar’ social economy assets. There was a significant amount of overlap between the community assets mapped by the two different research approaches, with 31% of the community assets surfaced in the offline research also discovered by the LocalNets online app. Acknowledgements: This paper was prepared by Gaia Marcus to report on work undertaken while at the RSA. The relevant contact at the RSA is now Matthew Parsfield. Corresponding author: Gaia Marcus, c/o Matthew Parsfield, The RSA, John Adam Street, London WC2N 6EZ; [email protected]. The Nesta Working Paper Series is intended to make available early results of research undertaken or supported by Nesta and its partners in order to elicit comments and suggestions for revisions and to encourage discussion and further debate prior to publication (ISSN 2050-9820).

  • London's Longest Running Blues Festival Is
    PRESS RELEASE: LONDON’S LONGEST RUNNING BLUES FESTIVAL IS BACK! AND BIGGER THAN EVER! 22-23 July 2017 - 30 years old this year! Founded in 1987, the 30th birthday of the Ealing Blues Festival will take place in Walpole Park, Ealing, on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd July, with music performances between 12.00pm – 10.30pm across three stages. Proudly presented in the London Borough which boasts the location of Ealing Club, meeting place of The Rolling Stones and where Alexis Korner & Cyril Davies started the country’s first dedicated electric Blues Club in 1962, thus giving birth to British Rock Music. The 2017 headline acts are Mungo Jerry and The Blockheads, alongside an array of the best up and coming and established acts in British Blues. The Ealing Blues Festival prides itself on its affordability, with the admission price pegged below £10 per day, making it possibly the ‘best value’ event of its kind. This contributes to the festival being highly family-friendly, with the advantages and facilities that a well- managed park has to offer. The main stage is within an open sided circus tent providing shade when it’s hot and wet weather cover when it’s not. The Festival is served by a wide selection of food stalls and large bar area. Sat 22 July Headline – The Blockheads. Very popular with the Blues & Roots audience having appeared at several other UK Blues Festivals. The observational and witty lyrics of their late frontman, Ian Dury, have much in common with those of many of the great blues singers.
