It’s your resident Agony Aunt, here to help solve your troubling queries and qualms about a range of different subjects. In this edition, I will be answering questions about the various new changes that come with joining the Sixth Form. I hope you enjoy reading this and I hope I help to wash those worries away! I am new to the college and am struggling to make friends. I am feeling like everyone has someone to hang out with and although I have said hello to a few S people in lessons, I still don’t have anyone to sit with at break and lunch. Please help. This big change in your school life can be very hard to handle alone. Luckily, many of our students are friendly, accepting, and more than happy to become friends with others. Making acquaintances within class is a good first step, maybe you could even ask your form tutor to introduce you to the members of your form: you're almost guaranteed to make a connection being in the same form for the next 2 years! At break and lunchtimes, try spending time in the Sixth Form canteen and get involved with some of the friendship groups there. It's important to remember that you aren't the only one having trouble making friends; previous and other new AMVC students may feel just as lost, so you aren't alone in your worries! I feel so overwhelmed with all the work being set in lessons; I didn’t think the jump from GCSE to A-level would be this hard. Worry not! It's very common to be overwhelmed over the first few weeks, the change is daunting and the workload much larger for everyone. Firstly, use your silent studies wisely. You'll have heard this from teachers too, but trust me, using these designated times to catch up on classwork or starting on homework early can really help when it comes to staying calm and organised. Chipping away at the work bit by bit allows you to manage your workload more efficiently. Obviously, silent studies alone may not provide enough time to do everything. When studying at home however, try to avoid working for long hours late into the night on essays and work sheets. Instead, try to limit yourself to 2 hours of work. And remember: look after yourself. Eat properly, stay hydrated, rest and relax! At this point in the year, you need to focus on taking notes in class, getting homework in on time and making revision resources for future exams. Everyone seem to know what they want to do next year but I don’t. I don’t know whether I want to go to university, do an apprenticeship or just work! I don’t think I will ever know and everyone keeps asking me to make decisions. I'll do my best to assist! First things first, not everyone has a plan. You certainly aren't expected to know exactly what you want to do by now, and even the most thought out plans for the future may not work out perfectly. Try making a list of subjects you enjoy and jobs or university courses that sound interesting to you. With this in mind, try asking your subject teachers, form tutor, or the heads of Sixth Form about options for the future that could be right for you. Do a bit of research at home or in silent studies about what options are available and the grades you should aim for, but keep in mind that none of your decisions are set in stone! Try not to worry too much about the future or other people’s expectations- no matter how much parents and other 2 people may nag. A Crash Course Guide to Arthur Mellows Sixth Form A new chapter of your academic life is opening; GCSE's are so last summer. It's time to forget about the exam season breakdowns and tearful result days, by stepping into a new, exciting and more mature schooling period. Yes. Sixth form. Long have you wondered about the glamourous lifestyle of the higher years, trotting in and out of school as they please, clothed in designer office wear and clutching their pristine folders, filled with the secrets to their academic success. Whether you're new to AMVC or you've spent previous years here, it's easy to see that Year 12 is completely different to any previous educational experience. However, the huge gap that lies between the seemingly bland Year 11 and the glitzy high- life of sixth form appears extremely daunting. Especially, if you've decided to leave behind your GCSE years at another school and walk into a completely new academic life at Arthur Mellows. But, let's leave the stress for exam period, and allow myself- a fellow sixth former and member of AMVC since year 7- to guide S you through a quick crash course, teaching you the basics of survival here at AMVC. Firstly, I want to begin with addressing, what I like to call, the crossroads of chaos. If you've spent any time at all at AMVC, you know exactly what I'm talking about; those double doors of terror at the end of the main corridor that become flooded with a mass of green and black after every beep of the bell. In order to avoid being trampled by this stampede, I advise you to avoid this area at peak rush hour. This includes the beginning and end of break periods as well as the split seconds of chaos between lessons. However, if you do find yourself in the unfortunate situation of being imprisoned by fellow students in a waterfall of suffocation: STAY CALM. Take a deep breath and shuffle along with the herd for ease. Oh, and in your panic, please refrain from joining in with the act of pushing, it is wholly unhelpful and entirely unnecessary. At the end of the day, try to minimise your panic… unless you are seriously claustrophobic then, unfortunately, I am unable to offer you any helpful advice. Secondly, I would like to offer some advice regarding the number of canteens and circumstances surrounding each of these spaces. AMVC has three separate canteens, two of which are available to sixth form. These are the sixth form coffee lounge/canteen and the main canteen, the one sandwiched between the science and English blocks. The favoured canteen among the higher years, tends to be the coffee lounge, as spending lunch and breaks here means no risk of cross contamination with younger years.

  • From Shadow Citizens to Teflon Stars
    From shadow citizens to teflon stars cultural responses to the digital actor L i s a B o d e A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2004 School of Theatre, Film and Dance University of New South Wales Abstract This thesis examines an intermittent uncanniness that emerges in cultural responses to new image technologies, most recently in some impressions of the digital actor. The history of image technologies is punctuated by moments of fleeting strangeness: from Maxim Gorky’s reading of the cinematographic image in terms of “cursed grey shadows,” to recent renderings of the computer-generated cast of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within as silicon-skinned mannequins. It is not merely the image’s unfamiliar and new aesthetics that render it uncanny. Rather, the image is received within a cultural framework where its perceived strangeness speaks allegorically of what it means to be human at that historical moment. In various ways Walter Benjamin, Anson Rabinbach and N. Katherine Hayles have claimed that the notion and the experience of “being human” is continuously transformed through processes related to different stages of modernity including rational thought, industrialisation, urbanisation, media and technology. In elaborating this argument, each of the four chapters is organized around the elucidation of a particular motif: “dummy,” “siren,” “doppelgänger” and “resurrection.” These motifs circulate through discourses on different categories of digital actor, from those conceived without physical referents to those that are created as digital likenesses of living or dead celebrities. These cultural responses suggest that even while writers on the digital actor are speculating about the future, they are engaging with ideas about life, death and identity that are very old and very ambivalent.

  • ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM BLUE WEEKEND JUNE 4Th 2021
    ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM BLUE WEEKEND JUNE 4th 2021 FIRST SINGLE “THE LAST MAN ON EARTH” OUT NOW WATCH VIDEO HERE (download high-resolution here - please credit Jordan Hemingway) Wolf Alice, one of Britain’s most revered bands and winner of the Mercury Prize 2018 for their last album Visions of Life, today announce their highly-anticipated third album, Blue Weekend, due for release on June 4th via Dirty Hit/RCA Records. The first glimpse into this new world, “The Last Man On Earth”, was tonight premiered as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record in the World on BBC Radio 1, continuing a tradition started when Annie played “Giant Peach,” from the band’s debut LP My Love Is Cool, as her first song when taking over the weekday evening show in 2015. “The Last Man On Earth” is an evocative return, finding Wolf Alice blurring the lines between classic songwriting, graceful atmosphere and their signature pin-sharp choruses. It is a song full of poise and confidence, the work of a band who raise the bar with every single release. Lead singer Ellie Rowsell is an artist with a rare songwriting gift - the ability to tread the fine line between consummate storyteller and confessional lyricist. The song arrives with a video by director Jordan Hemingway (Gucci, Raf Simons, Comme Des Garçons), featuring Rowsell in the spotlight and signalling a bold introduction to this new era of Wolf Alice. Elaborating on who the titular The Last Man on Earth is, singer and guitarist for Wolf Alice Ellie Rowsell says, “It’s about the arrogance of humans.
