I want to say that I enjoyed every minute I spent with you over the last year, but that would not be true. When I first met you, I dare say, you exasperated me - a new culture and lifestyle that made me feel out of place. I missed home, I hated the weather, couldn’t figure out the customs and I just wanted out. There have been times when I’ve felt like giving up, when things were not going my way. Each time, you were there to remind me of my worth as a human being. You accepted me, even before I let go of my preconceived notions about you. You introduced me to how wonderful the locals could be if one just went up to have a wee banter, taught me how much fun it was to enjoy a Chip-Butty while sipping Irn Bru in the rain, let me peek into your history when I tramped around town, showed me the wonderful Clockwork Orange on a sub-crawl and explained why Sauchiehall Street buzzed on a Saturday night while Kelvingrove Park teemed with people on a sunny day.

  • Mogwai – As the Love Continues
    Mogwai – As The Love Continues (1:01:24, Digital, CD, Vinyl, Rock Action Records/[PIAS]/Rough Trade, 2021) Neun vollwertige Studioalben und diverse Live-Aufnahmen, Soundtracks und EPs haben uns Mogwai bisher in ihren 26 Jahren Bandgeschichte beschert und dabei den Sound des Post Rock- Genres so sehr geprägt wie kaum eine andere Band. „As The Love Continues“ ist nun das zehnte reguläre Album der Schotten und erscheint exakt ein Vierteljahrhundert nach deren Debütsingle ‚Turner’/’Lower‘ und nur wenige Monate nach dem Soundtrack für die Serie „ZeroZeroZero“. Und schon nach wenigen Takten ist „As The Love Continues“ eindeutig als Mogwai-Album identifizierbar. Sprich, auf dem neuen Album der Formation aus Glasgow ist (fast) alles beim Alten geblieben. Langweilig wird es dadurch allerdings nicht, denn auf „As The Love Continues“ spielen Stuart Braithwaite (Gitarre), Dominic Aitchison (E-Bass, Gitarre), Martin Bulloch (Schlagzeug) und Barry Burns (Keyboard, Flöte, Gitarre, Bass) noch immer Post Rock auf aller höchstem Niveau. „As The Love Continues“ beginnt in Form von ‚To The Bin My Friend, Tonight We Vacate Earth‘ mit sehr dezenten Tönen, sanftem Schlagzeugspiel und sparsamen Melodien. Ganz in Bandtradition legen die Schotten im Laufe dieses Stücks Soundschicht um Soundschicht übereinander, bevor der Einsatz verzerrter Gitarren und die so Mogwai-typische Laut-Leise- Dynamik das Stück in einer voluminösen, aber dennoch organischen Wall of Sound zu Ende gehen lassen. Das anschließende ‚Here We, Here We, Here We Go Forever‘ wird durch piepende Synthesizer-Sounds eingeleitet, welche stilistisch an die schottischen Landsleute vonBoards of Canada denken lassen. Die Melodieführung des Stückes ist so eingängig wie zuletzt vielleicht auf dem 2001er Album „Rock Action“, klingt jedoch so, als würden die Instrumente von einem Roboter gespielt werden.

  • 'The Neo-Avant-Garde in Modern Scottish Art, And
    ‘THE NEO-AVANT-GARDE IN MODERN SCOTTISH ART, AND WHY IT MATTERS.’ CRAIG RICHARDSON DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (BY PUBLISHED WORK) THE SCHOOL OF FINE ART, THE GLASGOW SCHOOL OF ART 2017 1 ‘THE NEO-AVANT-GARDE IN MODERN SCOTTISH ART, AND WHY IT MATTERS.’ Abstract. The submitted publications are concerned with the historicisation of late-modern Scottish visual art. The underpinning research draws upon archives and site visits, the development of Scottish art chronologies in extant publications and exhibitions, and builds on research which bridges academic and professional fields, including Oliver 1979, Hartley 1989, Patrizio 1999, and Lowndes 2003. However, the methodology recognises the limits of available knowledge of this period in this national field. Some of the submitted publications are centred on major works and exhibitions excised from earlier work in Gage 1977, and Macmillan 1994. This new research is discussed in a new iteration, Scottish art since 1960, and in eight other publications. The primary objective is the critical recovery of little-known artworks which were formed in Scotland or by Scottish artists and which formed a significant period in Scottish art’s development, with legacies and implications for contemporary Scottish art and artists. This further serves as an analysis of critical practices and discourses in late-modern Scottish art and culture. The central contention is that a Scottish neo-avant-garde, particularly from the 1970s, is missing from the literature of post-war Scottish art. This was due to a lack of advocacy, which continues, and a dispersal of knowledge. Therefore, while the publications share with extant publications a consideration of important themes such as landscape, it reprioritises these through a problematisation of the art object.

  • Free Yourself from Fears with NLP: Overcoming Anxiety and Living Without Worry
    Praise for Free Yourself From Fears “It has been said that the two great emotions are love and fear, and that they form the foundation for all others. Fear tends to be the source of most of the difficult feelings we experience. Learning to deal with fear is thus one of the most important life skills a person can learn. In Free Yourself From Fears Joseph O'Connor provides a wealth of knowledge and tools to help people better understand their fears and transform them into positive actions. As with his previous books, Joseph demonstrates his great gift for presenting rich and complex knowledge in a form that is both practical and easy to understand. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to move more easily and confidently through life.” ROBERT DILTS, AUTHOR OF FROM COACH TO AWAKENER & CHANGING BELIEF SYSTEMS WITH NLP “This book is an excellent example of Joseph O’Connor's elegant, enriched writing style and conveys pertinent, powerful learning for dealing with the fears of the volatile world in which we live today.” SUE KNIGHT, AUTHOR OF NLP AT WORK “With uncommon knowledge and authority, Free Yourself From Fears gives us a fresh view on our everyday anxieties. In plain language O'Connor combines the analytical with the intuitive and does it with heart. Therapists, managers and communicators in all fields will use his practical exercises for dealing with fear for years to come.” MICHAEL COLGRASS,PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING COMPOSER AND NLP TRAINER Free Yourself From Fears To Andrea Free Yourself From Fears Overcoming Anxiety and Living Without Worry Joseph O’Connor First published by Nicholas Brealey Publishing in 2005 3–5 Spafield Street 100 City Hall Plaza, Suite 501 Clerkenwell, London Boston EC1R 4QB, UK MA 02108, USA Tel: +44 (0)20 7239 0360 Tel: (888) BREALEY Fax: +44 (0)20 7239 0370 Fax: (617) 523 3708 http://www.nbrealey-books.com http://www.lambentdobrasil.com © Joseph O’Connor 2005 The right of Joseph O’Connor to be identified as the author of this work has been asserted in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

  • FFS (UK / USA) «FFS» (Domino Records, Release: 05.06.2015)
    FFS (UK / USA) «FFS» (Domino Records, Release: 05.06.2015) Collaborations, as FFS would have us believe on their debut album, don’t work. You start off deferential, and strangely reverential – and eventually, you’ll need the Dalai Lama to mediate, between all the patronising, agonising, navel-gazing and differences in work ethic. So when Los Angeles duo Sparks and Glasgow-based quartet Franz Ferdinand decided to record together, it was a flawed and potentially disastrous idea, right? FFS, you couldn’t be more wrong! Not only is ‘Collaborations Don’t Work’ one of the star attractions of the self- titled record that sprang from their collective loins but ‘FFS’ is also one of the strongest albums of either bands’ career. The love of artful corkscrew pop that created a mutual appreciation society kicks off with the lead single ‘Johnny Delusional’ and its soon-come successor ‘Call Girl’, though the hooks driving ‘Police Encounters’, ‘So Desu Ne’ and ‘Piss Off’ are no less fabulous and merciless. This dynamic thrill is countered by the subtler charms of ‘Dictator’s Son’ and ‘Little Guy From The Suburbs’, the haughtier ‘The Power Couple’ and ‘Collaborations Don’t Work’ itself, a multi-tiered quasi-musical that shows off the compositional ambition and savvy humour that defines ‘FFS’. “The real motivation was to make something new, not ‘Franz featuring Russell Mael’, or ‘Sparks with Franz Ferdinand backing them’,” declares FF frontman Alex Kapranos, whose intertwining lead vocals with Russell is another of the record’s principal thrills, like a male version of the Abba approach.

The artist has a habit of resisting any attempt at taxonomy however, wriggling free from the entomologist’s chloroform bottle and display pin, to be unruly, unpredictable and provide no favours for the art historian. Yes, we had The Glasgow Boys, a coherent group of realist painters before the beginning of the 20th Century. And then came The Scottish Colourists, our first modernists, who certainly exhibited as a group and can be understood as British post-impressionists. In the post-War years the choice seemed to be to stay in Scotland under the wing of your Art College or move to the South, like Colquhoun and MacBryde, Alan Davie, William Gear and W. Barns-Graham. Of course the complex reality denies a simple telling; for every adherent there is an opponent and many of the most powerful and individual painters of the period like James Cowie or Joan Eardley neither left nor taught in Glasgow or Edinburgh.
