The proposed order is termed the Network Rail (Oxford Station Phase 2 Improvements (Land Only)) Order ('the Order'). 1.2 The purpose of the Order is to facilitate improved capacity and capability on the “Oxford Corridor” (Didcot North Junction to Aynho Junction) to meet the Strategic Business Plan objections for capacity enhancement and journey time improvements. As well as enhancements to rail infrastructure, improvements to highways are being undertaken as part of the works. Together, these form part of Oxford Station Phase 2 Improvements ('the Project'). 1.3 The Project forms part of a package of rail enhancement schemes which deliver significant economic and strategic benefits to the wider Oxford area and the country. The enhanced infrastructure in the Oxford area will provide benefits for both freight and passenger services, as well as enable further schemes in this strategically important rail corridor including the introduction of East West Rail services in 2024. 1.4 The works comprised in the Project can be summarised as follows: • Creation of a new ‘through platform’ with improved passenger facilities. • A new station entrance on the western side of the railway. • Replacement of Botley Road Bridge with improvements to the highway, cycle and footways.

    1 MONSTROSITIES MADE IN THE INTERFACE: THE IDEOLOGICAL RAMIFICATIONS OF ‘PLAYING’ WITH OUR DEMONS A Thesis submitted by Jesse J Warren, BLM Student ID: u1060927 For the award of Master of Arts (Humanities and Communication) 2020 Thesis Certification Page This thesis is entirely the work of Jesse Warren except where otherwise acknowledged. This work is original and has not previously been submitted for any other award, except where acknowledged. Signed by the candidate: __________________________________________________________________ Principal Supervisor: _________________________________________________________________ Abstract Using procedural rhetoric to critique the role of the monster in survival horror video games, this dissertation will discuss the potential for such monsters to embody ideological antagonism in the ‘game’ world which is symptomatic of the desire to simulate the ideological antagonism existing in the ‘real’ world. Survival video games explore ideology by offering a space in which to fantasise about society's fears and desires in which the sum of all fears and object of greatest desire (the monster) is so terrifying as it embodies everything 'other' than acceptable, enculturated social and political behaviour. Video games rely on ideology to create believable game worlds as well as simulate believable behaviours, and in the case of survival horror video games, to simulate fear. This dissertation will critique how the games Alien:Isolation, Until Dawn, and The Walking Dead Season 1 construct and themselves critique representations of the ‘real’ world, specifically the way these games position the player to see the monster as an embodiment of everything wrong and evil in life - everything 'other' than an ideal, peaceful existence, and challenge the player to recognise that the very actions required to combat or survive this force potentially serve as both extensions of existing cultural ideology and harbingers of ideological resistance across two worlds – the ‘real’ and the ‘game’.

    Agenda Item 5 West Area Planning Committee 13th June 2017 Application Number: 17/00250/FUL Decision Due by: 24th May 2017 Proposal: Alterations for the continued use of the buildings as student accommodation comprising: External alterations to elevations and roofs of the existing buildings; tree planting (including containers and supporting structures); alterations to, and landscaping of the courtyards; new cycle stores; alterations to existing lighting; and the formation of pedestrian pathways on the east side of Blocks 5 and 8 and the three gatehouses. Site Address: Castle Mill, Roger Dudman Way (site plan: appendix 1) Ward: Jericho And Osney Ward Agent: Mr Nik Lyzba Applicant: Chancellor, Masters And Scholars Of The University Of Oxford Recommendation: The West Area Planning Committee are recommended to grant planning permission for the following reasons Reasons for Approval 1 It is considered that the proposed design mitigation strategy for the existing buildings will, on balance, provide some mitigation for the harm that has been caused to the significance, in particular to the settings of a number of high value heritage assets. The Environmental Statement has assessed the strategy in respect of the landscape and visual impacts, historic environmental impacts, and impacts on ecology and nature conservation and considers that there will be some beneficial effects from the measures on these matters. Similarly it is not considered to give rise to any impacts with respect to highway matters, land contamination, air quality, and archaeology and any such matters could be addressed by appropriately worded planning conditions. The proposal is considered to be acceptable in terms of the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework, and relevant policies of the Oxford Core Strategy 2026, Sites and Housing Plan 2011-2026, and Oxford Local Plan 2001-2016 REPORT 13 2 In considering the application, officers have had specific regard to the comments of third parties and statutory bodies in relation to the application.

    “Apocalypse Whatever,” by Tara Isabella Burton “Chaos of Facts,” by Nathan Jurgenson “What Was the Nerd” by Willie Osterweil “Broken Windows, Broken Code,” by R

    FASCISM “Apocalypse Whatever,” by Tara Isabella Burton “Chaos of Facts,” by Nathan Jurgenson “What Was the Nerd” by Willie Osterweil “Broken Windows, Broken Code,” by R. Joshua Scannell With the rise of fascist leaders in the U.S. and elsewhere, it’s natural to want to investigate the degree to which new communication technologies have facilitated it. Much as Horkheimer and Adorno indicted the incipient mass media and the “culture industry” for mid–20th century fascism, we might look at 21st century social media in the same light. Online platforms have become instruments for meting out brutality, suppressing freedom of thought, reinforcing marginalization and social exclusion, and enforcing orthodoxy. But it makes sense also to think of fascism itself as a political technology, an approach to social control that relies on negating the truth, sowing confusion, destabilizing shared values, and setting unmoored bureaucracies against the population and one another. We face an unprecedented combination of seemingly opposed ideologies that have come to reinforce each other: Big Data positivism generates an endless stream of uninterpretable information that post-truth demagoguery can triumphantly push aside. —Rob Horning FASCISM APOCALYPSE magic”—when something espoused and af- firmed in the digital realm also becomes true be- WHATEVER yond it.

    Rallying Speech May 2013

    Campaign to save Port Meadow: Presentation to CPRE June 2013 My name is Sushila Dhall, community campaigner and a founder member of the Campaign to Save Port Meadow, which CPRE is supporting. I joined CPRE recently on the basis of your care to protect this and other public green spaces in Oxfordshire. The Campaign to Save Port Meadow has become a high profile one, with a legal challenge from yourselves awaiting an outcome, and other legal action being discussed should a Judicial Review not be called for in response. The issues are many and seem to increase as time goes on, with numerous dubious issues in the planning process having come to light. I am here to give you a sense of the background to this campaign, how it started and where it came from. This time last year the view across Port Meadow was as it had been for centuries, with peaceful views all round of greenery and spires, with a few rooftops showing through as allowed by stringent planning rules. People were shocked to see that view suddenly change, when last September eight ugly blocks covered with scaffolding started rising from behind the mature leafy willows at the southern end of Port Meadow, and were already in those early weeks damaging the beautiful view of the Grade I listed St Barnabas tower. Last September the character of Port Meadow was fundamentally altered by the ugly intrusion of blocks which are too large and tall, too close together, too uniform, too visible. The precious sense of a place of relaxation and refuge that Port Meadow provided residents and students of this pressured town was being wiped away.

Despite the sunlight that filled much of the garage, the stairs were dark and littered with debris. As I started my descent, a vision of zombies appeared unbidden. I could imagine zombies swarming the bottom of the stairs and blocking my exit. Or perhaps, they would stumble upon me from the stairs above.

Paik Few periods have witnessed so strong a cultural fixation on apocalyptic calamity as the present. From fictions and comic books to Hollywood films, television shows, and video games, the end of the world is ubiquitous in the form of apocalyptic and post- apocalyptic narratives. Imagining world-changing catastrophes, contemporary apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic narratives force us to face urgent socio-political questions such as danger of globalization, effect of neoliberal capitalist hegemony, ecological disasters, fragility of human civilization, and so on.
