Manchester 24 Manchester 24 11 November 2004 – 4 January 2005 at Urbis, Manchester One city on one camera in one day Stolichnaya and Urbis co—production Urbis and Stolichnaya, the authentic Russian vodka, celebrate Manchester‟s real personalities through a unique photography exhibition exploring a day in the life of Manchester. „Manchester 24‟ presents the diverse lives and perspectives of forty Manchester inhabitants, each telling their story through the lens of an original cult Russian Lomo camera. Participants were chosen to reflect as many different aspects of life in Manchester as possible. The task for them will be to shoot their life on one role of film in the space of 24 hours before Urbis exhibits the results for all to see. From a pilot who regularly flies into Manchester to a police person who patrols its streets, the wide range of participants will give a real and personal insight into what it means to live, work and play in Manchester today. Celebrity participants include singer-songwriter, Badly Drawn Boy, cult author, PP Hartnett and ex-frontman of Inspiral Carpets, Tom Hingley. Emily Gleed, from Stolichnaya said: “Stolichnaya has set out to create an exhibition centred around the theme of „authenticity‟. We are delighted to be working alongside Urbis on a project that will provide an incredibly personal insight into the contributor‟s lives and worlds through unplanned and off-the-cuff photography.” Scott Burnham, Creative Director for Urbis, said: “After twelve months exploring unique aspects of cities around the world with our international exhibitions, Urbis is very proud to round out the year by putting the spotlight on one of the most unique aspects of our home city – Manchester‟s people and their authentic views of their own city, as they capture the daily vibe that makes this the great place that it is” Admission: FREE - ENDS - For further press information please contact: Peggy Manning at Urbis T: 0161 605 8212 E: [email protected] Katie Maynes @ Revolver Communications T: 020 7251 5599 E: [email protected] Notes to Editors • The £30m construction and development of Urbis was managed by Manchester City Council Special Projects Team and are funded as part of the £42m Manchester Millennium Quarter by the Millennium Commission, the European Regional Development Fund, Manchester City Council and the Department of Local Government, Transport and the Regions (DLTR) and the Northwest Development Agency. • Stolichnaya‟s the most famous of all Russian vodkas – a classic spirit that‟s been produced for over 100 years.

  • Precious but Not Precious UP-RE-CYCLING
    The sounds of ideas forming , Volume 3 Alan Dunn, 22 July 2020 presents precious but not precious UP-RE-CYCLING This is the recycle tip at Clatterbridge. In February 2020, we’re dropping off some stuff when Brigitte shouts “if you get to the plastic section sharpish, someone’s throwing out a pile of records.” I leg it round and within seconds, eyes and brain honed from years in dank backrooms and charity shops, I smell good stuff. I lean inside, grabbing a pile of vinyl and sticking it up my top. There’s compilations with Blondie, Boomtown Rats and Devo and a couple of odd 2001: A Space Odyssey and Close Encounters soundtracks. COVER (VERSIONS) www.alandunn67.co.uk/coverversions.html For those that read the last text, you’ll enjoy the irony in this introduction. This story is about vinyl but not as a precious and passive hands-off medium but about using it to generate and form ideas, abusing it to paginate a digital sketchbook and continuing to be astonished by its magic. We re-enter the story, the story of the sounds of ideas forming, after the COVER (VERSIONS) exhibition in collaboration with Aidan Winterburn that brings together the ideas from July 2018 – December 2019. Staged at Leeds Beckett University, it presents the greatest hits of the first 18 months and some extracts from that first text that Aidan responds to (https://tinyurl.com/y4tza6jq), with me in turn responding back, via some ‘OUR PRICE’ style stickers with quotes/stats. For the exhibition, the mock-up sleeves fabricated by Tom Rodgers look stunning, turning the digital detournements into believable double-sided artefacts.

  • Interview with Tim Vigon, Creator of World Famous Made of Paper Fanzine (15/08/2014)! !
    Interview with Tim Vigon, creator of world famous Made Of Paper fanzine (15/08/2014)! ! ! ! ! ! First things first how are you?! ! All good my friend. Thanks for asking!! ! ! Can you talk us through your up bringing?! ! My upbringing was pretty normal, I was brought up in Macclesfield which is about 20 miles South of Manchester, my parents were teachers and I went to a normal comprehensive school in Macc, when I was 16 I went to 6th form college in Moss Side, Manchester and that kind of opened up the world to me in a big way. Macclesfield is a small town , even though it’s close to Manchester people couldn’t be more different. It was totally different for me when I started hanging around with people who lived in a real City, it was 1987 when I started going to college in Manchester, so an amazing time to be there! ! ! ! ! What was the first music you got into?! ! Like most people it was just through whatever I could find of my mum and dads. They had a BASF 90 cassette (yep i’m that old) of the Beatles live at Hollywood Bowl with Sgt Peppers and Let It Be on the same tape. I played that tape to death. I’m still obsessed with the Beatles. I have a little doll of one of the Beatles on every door handle in my house and lots of bits and pieces of Beatles memorabilia. I just went to see Paul McCartney this weekend in LA. That was the first music I listened to and I’ve never got bored of it.

  • Oasis, the Psychology of Siblings, Rebirth and the Trickster's Cycle
    Harvest (Online); Bi-Annual Don’t Look Back in Anger Volume 4(2); 2019 DON'T LOOK BACK IN ANGER: OASIS, THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SIBLINGS, REBIRTH AND THE TRICKSTER'S CYCLE Ari Katorza Historian, Music Critic & Cultural Studies Scholar, Sapir Academic College Israel Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Phone: 972-54-4791459 Abstract Popular music research was stretching for some decades from subcultures theories to music sociology; from traditional musicology to new musicology, and from cultural studies of modernist and post-modernist culture to semiotics and music aesthetics. Yet, there were hardly – to say at least – any researches concerning popular music bands of siblings and their music. In the 1990s, Oasis was the best-selling band in Britain. TheGallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, who led Oasis, epitomized the era of Britpop. It was a musical and cultural movement that was based on "returning to Englishness", and produced attractive and highly commercial rock music by indie bands. A crucial part of Oasis' success depended on the brothers' relationship. The siblings competed for leadership, control and attention. Their rivalry turned the media obsessed with the band. Journalistic historians of Britpop, Oasis' biographers and academics, have related to the 1990s, the Britpop movement, the band's well- publicized rivalry with Blur, the new post-Thatcherism euphoria, and the rise of Tony Blair and the New Labour, as all part of Oasis Phenomenon. However, I'd like to I understand Oasis' successful music from a different perspective, from a psychological point of view: as a product of the dysfunctional family syndrome, and especially the idea of brothers in a family and a musical unity.
