Can poor city planning make people fly out of windows?



c. George Logan

I have been haunted by a radio interview I heard yesterday when a mother living in the Red Road flats asked, "how can you explain to a 4 year old why folk are flying out of windows?" The tragic suicide of three asylum seekers fContinue

Irene to screen in competition at the Northern Lights Film Festival

We're delighted that Irene is to screen in competition at the Northern Lights Film Festival in Newcastle later this month. Northern Lights has a rather unusual approach to a competitive shorts programme and the festival invites the movers and shakers from the worlds of film, tv and games to talk about how they spot, manage and market breakthrough talent.

"We want to kno… Continue

The Chatroulette Twins


The great US photographer Diane Arbus was fascinated by twins, something about their genetic replication, apparent closeness to each other and the idiosyncratic way that they can sit side-by-side similar and yet so profoundly unique. Twins have always compelled artists and writers… Continue

Plans


Two frequent comments at workshops: “We can’t tell you what we need unless we see some plans” - “We don’t believe you’ll listen to what we say because you’ve already drawn up the plans.” Spot the fatal flaw in reconciling this philosophical impasse.

How are organisations addressing Digital Asset Management?

It's still in its infancy but you are welcome to join the Stirling Coffee Morning group, a chance to meet and exchange ideas with like-minded colleagues.
The digital coffee morning began as an Edinburgh phenomenon when local digital enthusiasts from informatics and digital agencies met in George Street's Centotre, cafe in 2007. Glasgow followed in 2008. Dundee already had its own drunken variants and now it's Stirling's turn.
