@AllanWatson1 @CreativePEC Interesting research & report. My current fieldwork into the experimental electronic music scene in Manchester suggests many underground artists are charting a militantly independent course, building alternative alliances & circuits. To them the 'music industry' is an irrelevance

@sevensixfive Same here, though my most prolific namesake apparently works in medical research, so the papers I’ve purportedly authored often seem to involve things like comparative studies of rectal thermometer usage 🙄

@docrussjackson It’s not that they’re deemed unsuitable for plebs, it’s because they equip people with the critical thinking tools to question the system. Here’s the ideological logic: https://t.co/Au9ldKcqoO

Lefebvre in a 1997 interview telling Kristin Ross about driving to the Pyrenees with Debord & various Situationists:"we had a fabulous feast in Sarlat, and I could hardly drive...I got a ticket; we were almost arrested because I crossed a village going 120 kilometers per hour."

@michaellondonsf These people made bespoke musicians’ hearing protectors for me (my research requires me to attend some very loud gigs!). They were very professional, good bedside manner & cost seemed reasonable. They appear to do general audiology too. https://t.co/KuTVacQgL7

@moveincircles @DannyDutch @DavidDPaxton My mum, brought up in a poor working-class family in Manchester during the 1920s, 30s & 40s, often referred to making a ‘cup of char’, which you have to imagine being said with a long, flat ´a’ & a silent ‘r’. I’ve always assumed it had both class *and* regional inflexions.
