Three members of the community, including the Suya’s Chief, visited the UK and Germany to speak about the endangerment of their language and culture and to suggest ways for interested people to help them preserve their way of life. Dan Everett, Professor of Phonetics and Phonology at the University, commented: “The Suya people, language and culture have survived for centuries but their very way of life is threatened by outside influences; such as encroachment upon their territory by large-scale farming and growing contact with the economic pull of Western civilisation. www.llc.manchester.ac.uk/CentreforLatinAmercianCulturalStudies/ 4 UniLife News Film 2005 The University sponsored the opening night of the 2005 Commonwealth Film Festival last month, at an event co-hosted with the Australian High Commission.

  • You Gotta Fight (For Your Right to Make Music) | Nouse
    Nouse Web Archives You gotta fight (for your right to make music) Page 1 of 4 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists You gotta fight (for your right to make music) By Robin Seaton Thursday 4 May 2006 Robin Seaton met Fightstar in Leeds on their third UK headline tour. They talked about the metal/punk scene and their attempts to forge a post-Busted fanbase You have to admire Charlie Simpson’s optimism, and his bravery. There’s something almost American about his desire for reinvention, something suicidal about his courage in forming a metal/punk band after having left Busted, a group who were one of the most successful manifestations of the legalised child exploitation racket that is pop music. There was almost something postmodern in their management’s attempts to create a patina of ‘rock respectability’ to cover the fundamentally teenager-targeted music. Their (unplugged) guitars, their ‘personalised’ clothes, that bloody endless ‘punk’ gurning. They weren’t fooling anyone, and they knew it. So how did the pretty-boy singer imagine that he could get away with forming a band playing music to punks and metalheads, two groups of music fans notorious for their abilities to sniff out anything fake, popular or safe, then gob on its face and kick its head in? Surely one man and his monobrow could not stand alone against such a tide of beered-up hatred? I went to Leeds to find out. Fightstar’s an appropriate name for a band who’ve had to fight against one kind of fame in order to achieve another.

For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected]. Abstract There is a dark mythology surrounding the post-punk band Joy Division that tends to foreground the personal history of lead singer Ian Curtis. However, when evaluating the construction of Joy Division’s public image, the contributions of several other important figures must be addressed. This thesis shifts focus onto the peripheral figures who played key roles in the construction and perpetuation of Joy Division’s image. The roles of graphic designer Peter Saville, of television presenter and Factory Records founder Tony Wilson, and of photographers Kevin Cummins and Anton Corbijn will stand as examples in this discussion of cultural intermediaries and collaborators in popular music.
