But when his boss asks him to go to India to investigate the murder of a British engineer who was found with eighteen arrows stuck in his body, Kamil agrees to take the case, as long as Anjoli can accompany him.When they arrive in Mumbai, they find someone is on a gruesome killing spree, striking down those connected to the engineer in increasingly macabre ways. Meanwhile, an old friend of Kamil's gets in touch to beg for his help: he believes his family are cursed, and that he is going to die on his 47th birthday, just like his father and grandfather before him.As the body count rises, Kamil is torn between solving a very real murder case and protecting his friend from a grisly – if far-fetched – fate.

Jakten på evigt liv är gammal. Under 1900-talet fick idén nya former. Dan Jönsson ser en poäng i att hålla liv i odödligheten. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Ursprungligen publicerad 2019-02-26.På morgnarna när jag står framför badrumsspegeln och begrundar de djupnande vikarna i hårfästet faller min blick på en liten medicinflaska jag köpte en gång för många år sedan i en butik på Brick Lane i Londons East End. Flaskan innehåller något som heter Blessed Seed Oil, en hemlig mixtur som sägs hjälpa mot allt från impotens och håravfall till reumatism och ögonsjukdomar. Enligt någon guru som citeras på förpackningen innehåller Blessed Seed ”ett botemedel mot alla sjukdomar, utom döden”. Det låter förstås livsfarligt; ändå är det för det där citatet som flaskan har fått stå kvar på hyllan. Trots allt skänker den lite hopp i förgängligheten, hoppet om att även döden faktiskt är en sjukdom bland andra, även om vi till dags dato inte har hittat någon bot för den.En revolution var knappast värd sitt namn om den inte också ville spränga gränserna i tid och rum.Men vad vore den mänskliga civilisationen om vi inte åtminstone försökte? Den 7 april 1928 dog den sovjetiske forskaren och revolutionären Alexander Bogdanov i sitt laboratorium i Moskva. Dödsorsaken lär ha varit blodförgiftning, eller möjligen malaria. Bogdanov var en av den ryska revolutionens veteraner, han hade varit med när bolsjevikpartiet grundades och efter revolutionen ledde han den kommunistiska kultur- och propagandaorganisationen Proletkult. Men han var också besatt av tanken att partiets stora uppgift, när kapitalismen väl var avskaffad, var att övervinna döden. Hans idé var egentligen ganska enkel: med hjälp av regelbundna blodtransfusioner kunde man hjälpa kroppen att bromsa åldrandet och på så vis skjuta döden på en oviss framtid. I sitt Institut för Blodtransfusioner utförde Bogdanov under några år på tjugotalet en serie experiment, som alltså fick ett fatalt slut när han av misstag råkade byta blod med en malariasjuk patient.Den här historien är nästan glömd idag, men faktum är att i den ryska revolutionens tankegods var sådana här spekulationer inte oviktiga. Ursprunget finns hos författaren Nikolaj Fjodorov, som i några uppmärksammade skrifter i slutet av artonhundratalet proklamerade en rörelse han kallade ”kosmismen”, vars program gick ut på att mänsklighetens uppgift var att göra sig till herre över tid och rum – mer konkret verka för odödlighet och de dödas uppståndelse samt kolonisera rymden. Fjodorov själv var långtifrån någon revolutionär, ändå tog många revolutionärer till sig hans idéer och utvecklade dem under namnet ”biokosmism” som en logisk förlängning av det egna emancipationsprojektet. En revolution var knappast värd sitt namn om den inte också ville spränga gränserna i tid och rum. Avskaffandet av döden sågs inte minst som en fråga om upprättelse för dem som fallit offer för historiens tyranner; en befrielse som bara omfattade de levande var helt enkelt inte rättvis.Från att i årtusenden ha förankrats i det religiösa blev alltså drömmen om ett evigt liv till ett vetenskapligt och politiskt projekt. Liksom de kosmiska fantasierna: det var biokosmisternas idéer som tände gnistan till det som med tiden blev det sovjetiska rymdprogrammet, och när raketforskningen tog sina första stapplande steg på tjugo- och trettiotalen var de ideologiska banden fortfarande starka. Konstantin Tsiolkovskij, som brukar anses som det sovjetiska rymdprogrammets fader, var starkt inspirerad av Fjodorov, och även om Alexander Bogdanovs död på laboratoriebänken blev slutet för de revolutionära odödlighetsdrömmarna, så överlevde de alltså på sätt och vis i sublimerad form. De sovjetiska rymdfärdernas betydelse som symboler för den djärva, himlastormande kommunismen är omöjlig att överskatta.Men det här betydde inte att idéerna om odödlighet hade tömt ut sin politiska kraft. Nästan samtidigt som i Ryssland, mellan de båda världskrigen, pågick bland tyska kristna intellektuella en intensiv debatt om evighet och odödlighet. Bakgrunden var i stort sett densamma som hos biokosmisterna: en religiös världsbild som i takt med den moderna rationalismens framväxt krympt ihop till en historisk horisont där evigheten helt enkelt inte fick plats längre. Framför allt Darwins evolutionsteori hade fått de eviga perspektiven att framstå som myter och vidskepelse, och i den samhällssyn som växte fram vid nittonhundratalets början sågs det istället som den centrala uppgiften att ägna kraft åt att förbättra förutsättningarna för livet här och nu, helst med vetenskapliga metoder; en ambition som den svenske statsvetaren Rudolf Kjellén redan 1916 kallade för ”biopolitik”. I pilens ännu oanade riktning låg förstås den rasbiologiska forskningen och nazisternas eugenik.Mot den här utvecklingen protesterade teologer som Franz Rosenzweig och Karl Barth. Tvärt emot att som de ryska biokosmisterna se odödligheten som en del av ett rationalistiskt samhällsomstörtande projekt, där forskning och ny teknik spelade en avgörande roll för att spränga jordelivets gränser, så såg de modernitetens materialistiska livssyn som själva grundproblemet. För Rosenzweig och Barth kunde den mänskliga tillvaron inte begränsas till ett ändligt, historiskt och materiellt, perspektiv. Som teologen Mårten Björk formulerar det i sin avhandling ”Life Outside Life” från 2018 sökte de sig bortom den förgängliga världen, mot dess ”utsida”. Det var där, i föreställningarna om evighet och odödlighet de fann det enda perspektiv som kunde ge människans tillfälliga, historiska existens en mening.som individuellt projekt är risken snarare att evigheten skulle föda en varelse som är mer monster än människaDen politiska hållning som blev synlig från denna livets utsida handlade förstås inte ett dugg om att här på jorden förverkliga ett odödligt människosläkte och de dödas uppståndelse. Utan helt enkelt om hur man som människa bör leva, nämligen i ständig medvetenhet om döden och, särskilt hos Barth, i en strävan att undkomma den antagonistiska, nedbrytande kampen för överlevnad. Livet är mer än så, mer än död och dödande. Det är nog ingen överdrift att säga att Barth, Rosenzweig och andra tänkare i samma anda med sitt sätt att vända ryggen till en destruktiv historisk utveckling förebådade den civilisationskritik som ligger till grund för mycket av dagens gröna ekoideologi – som ju på många sätt också den försöker hitta ett politiskt metaperspektiv, ett sätt att se på världen från andra sidan utvecklingens gränser, med andra ord från dess kosmiska ”utsida”.Och visst är det så att politiken, i och med de senaste årens klimatlarm, mer och mer har fått en dragning åt den här sortens utsidesperspektiv? Helt logiskt, när man tänker på saken – för handlar kanske inte det politiska i sig om att överskrida det individuella livets horisont, i både tid och rum? De ryska biokosmisterna, mitt i sina utspejsade fantasterier, hade förstått den saken, och vår tids stamcellsforskning kan ju på sätt och vis ses som ett historiskt eko av Alexander Bogdanovs blodtransfusionsexperiment. Om det är svårt att tänka sig något mer dystopiskt än de kryotekniska laboratorier som om några hundra år kommer att återuppväcka sina nerfrysta kunder till en förstörd planet, så kan jag ändå tänka mig att odödligheten rent politiskt vore en bra idé, just för att den skulle vidga perspektiven och befria oss från de småskurna drivkrafter som förstör vår värld. Rent politiskt, alltså – för som individuellt projekt är risken snarare att evigheten skulle föda en varelse som är mer monster än människa. Odöd, snarare än odödlig. Då tappar jag nog hellre håret.Dan Jönsson, författare och kritikerLitteraturMårten Björk: Life Outside Life: The Politics of Immortality, 1914-1945. Göteborgs universitet, 2018.

In this episode of Danny Hurst´s Unusual Histories Podcast, he is joined by former Manchester City midfielder and football agent, Barry Silkman, who grew up in the East End. He shares his insights into what it was like then as well as how he became a professional football player despite there being quite a lot of prejudice against Jews at the time. Barry talks about the pubs, local characters (including The Krays) and how people from different cultures developed a close community. As you would expect there are also a few footballing insider stories.

KEY TAKEAWAYS The area has changed so much that when Barry went back there 18 months ago at times he didn´t really know where he was. When Barry was a kid, the area was very Jewish. Now, not many Jews live there. Despite its bad reputation, the East End of Barry´s childhood was a very safe place. The community was quite mixed. There were differences but most people integrated so everyone got along. Petticoat Lane market, one of London’s oldest, was always very busy. Both of Barry´s parents worked there for many years. BEST MOMENTS “Now everyone's so wary .. the dimension of the East End has changed.” “I'm very proud of my heritage.” “Three out of four doors were wide open until 10 at night…There weren’t people getting mugged, getting stabbed.” “The first time I played against Spurs, it was just a strange feeling.” “What I went through being Jewish as a kid made me mentally and physically very strong, so nothing gets me down.” “A lot of our friends were Indian people from Brick Lane, because we went to school with them.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Silkman Petticoat Lane Market History - https://surveyoflondon.org/map/feature/1742/detail Demographics of Stepney - https://www.towerhamlets.gov.uk/Documents/Borough_statistics/Ward_profiles/SDSG-Ward-Profile.pdf Jewish Football Players - https://www.jta.org/2022/02/25/sports/british-jews-love-soccer-so-why-are-there-no-jews-in-the-premier-league https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cable_Street https://www.jewisheastend.com/garden.html HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students.

It's July 7th 2005, and it's a typically busy morning on London's underground. It's like any other day. But then, simultaneously, three trains and a double decker bus explode. Smoke fills the carriages, and panic and devastation takes over London. Detective Gary Powell was sitting at his desk when he heard what we now know as the 7/7 terrorist attacks. Gary sits down with host Brent Sanders to talk about this case, and others from his time in the counter terrorism unit of the UK police. This content contains references to suicide.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to The Artist Kitty (@kitty_arttist71) who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September.I have known The Artist Kitty for over 25 years, all that time and more she has battled severe mental health, namely Paranoid Schizophrenia; sometimes ahead of the battle, others not so. She was previously very creative, working for a screen printers', and drawing & painting. I had tried to encourage her to revisit it many times, but confidence and change of route had become a challenge.Then at the start of lock-down, out of the blue, she ordered several canvases, brushes and an array of paints and started painting. Within no time, she developed her own style; that just ooze happiness & positivity.She now says that painting is as beneficial as any medication; the BIRDS represent this new-found freedom, FLOWERS her growth and the CAGE that occasionally appears, is her condition... That seems to show itself a lot less nowadays.I have tried so many times to get Kitty on the pod, but her lack of confidence has always got the upper hand... Until today! Kitty has never shown her work outside of Instagram, where she has developed a much appreciated following; from 27-29 September, I will be showing/selling her work at the New Artist Fair at in the Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, London, E1 – For more details go to https://www.newartistfair.com/ To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofarts For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.orgEmail: ministryofartsorg@gmail.comSocial Media: @ministryofartsorg Hosted on Acast.

An Indian curry house is one of the most popular places to go out for a meal in the UK, and is part of British life. But many people don't know their origins lie in what is now Bangladesh, after a wave of migration from there in the 1970s. In this episode Devina Gupta traces their history and flavours on Brick Lane in east London, where many people settled and started restaurants. Many have closed over the years, but their legacy lives on. And now more diverse and authentic flavours are becoming popular in the capital and elsewhere.

My expertise primarily stems from self-teaching, supplemented by short courses in drawing, sculpture, mould making, casting, 3D modeling, and product design. However, it was only three years ago that I made the conscious decision to fully embrace the world of fine art photography, from concept, photography, printing and framing.

In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Jonny Mellor (@JonnyMellorArt) who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September 2024I am an artist strongly influenced by minimalism and geometric abstraction. I use this visual language to create paintings, prints and hand cut paper art . The exploration of colour, process, materials, space and form are central to my practice.I am interested in taking forms, shapes and patterns and combining these with carefully considered colour combinations. I am continually striving to achieve balance and harmony within my works composition and colour pallet.Amongst the barrage of visual stimulation and the overall increasingly chaoticness of life, minimalist art is at rest, creating a quiet harmony and balance which offers the viewer a space of calmness and contemplation.

In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Stella Zuegel (@stellazuegelart) who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September 2024Contemporary geometric artist Stella Zuegel creates unique art using both watercolour on paper, and acrylic and oil paint on canvas. Each piece is painted free hand and takes between 3-24 months to complete. In her work, Stella plays with shapes and colours to create depth, dimension and cohesion. These curate a journey of free-flowing exploration through individual shapes, larger patterns and the composition as a whole for the audience.Stella's work is inspired both by the poignant stories and emotions of herself and the people she meets and by an organic curiosity towards the very nature of self and the universe. Her work is thus a geometric representation of her inner path to discover the essence of her being and her journey towards understanding the world and its people, whilst also being a colourful expression of human experience and emotion.

On No Tags 25, we meet Jonny Banger: T-shirt hustler, avant-bootlegger, visionary rabble-rouser, DJ battle champ and bossman of the anarchic anti-fashion brand Sports Banger.From a certain angle, it can seem like the clothes are the main event at Sports Banger, from the original Free Tulisa tee and bootlegged NHS logos to wearable inflatables and a Chanel toilet seat headpiece. Naturally, Jonny has been asked a lot of questions in previous interviews about his designs and his philosophical take on bootlegs and infringement. But there's another side to the Banger story that hasn't been excavated: obviously, the music.Flipping through Sports Banger: Lifestyles of the Poor, Rich and Famous, the book that charts the first decade of the project, you can find musical references on almost every page: pilfered record label logos, Skepta in a postie's hi-viz jacket, descriptions of his studio's fine-tuned sound systems, playlists of tunes that inspired the Sports Banger runway shows, and even allusions to Jonny's previous life in the UK rap scene.We invited Jonny to go deep into the musical side of his story, from tape packs to free parties to the “shit mix jar” that collected fines in the first Sports Banger studio. He told us about his teenage years as a scratch DJ, his previous life as a club booker on Brick Lane, his ravey links with Swamp 81, School Records, Shangri-La and his own Heras label, and how he finally fell in love with free parties. And, most exciting for our resident KLF dweeb, he gave us a hint of what to expect from Sports Banger's forthcoming collaboration with K2 on the People's Pyramid.It's been a wild ride, and he's got the stories to prove it.If you enjoyed this big fat interview episode of No Tags then we implore you to press all the buttons and like, rate, review or subscribe on your podcast app of choice.

A while back, Tim came to London to perform at the Isokon building in Belsize Park, and I managed to catch up with him to record this podcast. As a small boy in the Seventies, Tim quietly absorbed the lessons of modernist architecture. He remembers accompanying his parents to a dinner party at a modern house, where the sound of laughter reverberated around the circular lounge; his career seems to have been about trying to recapture that heady moment. In 2003, he bought his own modernist house in Sydney, a move which, he says, ‘changed my life for the better'. His fascination with architecture and design had previously been a solitary pursuit, but the house provided a way to meet like-minded people and a launchpad for his TV career. Tim is really great company, and we talk about all sorts of things. He explains how he's an outlier in his family, and what it felt like to perform on stage for the first time. He tells me about the day the Beastie Boys came to visit and wouldn't leave, why he'd rather learn to be a builder than go through the stress of another renovation project, and why he swears by the uplifting effects of tinted moisturiser.This episode was recorded in person in Brick Lane, London.For more: Visit The Modern House website to see images of the spaces discussed in this episodeDiscover more about Tim Ross and his live showsSee more of his Sydney homeProducer: Hannah PhillipsEditing: Oscar CrawfordGraphic Design: Tom Young and Ben TuckerMusic: Father Hosted on Acast.

It's 25 years since London suffered three vicious nail bomb attacks - holdalls filled with 4-inch nails and hand-made explosives planted in Brixton market, Brick Lane and in the bar of the Admiral Duncan pub in Soho, intended to cause damage to those in the immediate vicinity and to the notion of a tolerant, diverse capital city. The attacks are recorded in photographs shared at the time by the press - of London streets strewn with damaged buildings and injured people, an x-ray of a toddler with a nail embedded in his skull, the wedding photograph of two victims (one killed, the other severely injured) and the police mugshot of the perpetrator, a far right terrorist who hoped to start a 'racial war in this country'.Fragments looks again at these images - some taken by Chris Taylor who happened to be on assignment in Soho's market photographing vegetables - to consider what it means for an instant to be captured and to endure in our memories and understanding of traumatic events.Including contributions from photographer Chris Taylor; Jonathan Cash, who survived the Soho attack, Emdad Talukder, who was injured in Brick Lane and business owner Leo Epstein. Music composed by Alan Hall, with Eleanor McDowall (chimes) and Alan Hall (trumpet)Producer: Alan Hall A Falling Tree production for BBC Radio Four(Photo credit: ChrisTaylorPhotography.com)

Embark on a journey with us through Britain's lesser-known history, spotlighting the transformative movements spearheaded by black and brown activists. Dive into the tales of the IWA, Bristol Bus Boycott, BlackPower, Mangrove Nine, Fasimbas, Oval Four, Black Liberation Front, BlackEducation Movement, Brixton Black Women's Group, OWAAD, BrunswickStrike, Battle of Brick Lane, Asian Youth Movements, and the Bradford 12. These narratives have been instrumental in molding the UK'ssocio-political fabric. Gain insights from Preeti Dhillon, the esteemed researcher, writer, andhistorian behind "The Shoulders We Stand On." Unearth how theseoften-overlooked movements were pivotal in confronting racism andcapitalism in the UK from the 60s to the 80s and changing the veryfabric of the country. In the spirit of Angela Davis's words, our video seeks to highlight notjust remarkable individuals but the collective endeavors that broughtabout change. Let's honor the unsung heroes and movements that have been right here, awaiting their rightful recognition.
This week I speak with Paul Bowker, Managing Director of Brick Lane Brewing company. The small brewing movement was built on a lot of romantic ideas about brewing that were born from a reaction to a brewing duopoly that didn't offer consumers a lot of choice. The craft narrative was small, traditional and independent, it initially eschewed a lot of brewing techniques and business strategies that were seen as not being craft…and in doing so spawned a million discussions about what the term craft meant. In this world, a brewery such as Brick Lane - well-resourced from the outset with the help of business people and celebrities, and openly adopting the modern brewing techniques that its resources provided - was viewed by a craft industry with some cynicism. And yet, in 2023, the brewery has won a swag of major awards for beer quality and - in world where so much news is on craft businesses struggling - Brick Lane appears to be going from strength to strength. These are the observations that continue to fascinate me, and I always enjoy discussing Brick Lane's role in the brewing industry with Paul Bowker as a result.

It is nearly two weeks since Israel launched its ground offensive into Gaza and more than a month since it began intensive air strikes against Hamas, following the brutal attacks in Israel in which more than 1,400 people were killed. ActionAid is one of the many charities responding to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and its UK CEO Halima Begum is urging countries that finding a humanitarian solution is paramount, with thousands of civilians dead and the majority of Gaza's 2.3 million residents having been displaced. Today on Ways to Change the World, Halima Begum tells Krishnan Guru-Murthy about her journey from youth activism to NGO work, the West's ‘moral responsibility' to humanitarian aid and the need for an immediate ceasefire in the Israel-Palestine war. Produced by Silvia Maresca.
The 1999 London nail bombings were a series of bomb explosions in London, England. Over three successive weekends between 17 and 30 April 1999, homemade nail bombs were detonated respectively in Brixton in South London; at Brick Lane, Spitalfields, in the East End; and at the Admiral Duncan pub in Soho in the West End. Each bomb contained up to 1,500 4-inch (100 mm) nails, in holdalls that were left in public spaces. The bombs killed three people and injured 140 people, four of whom lost limbs.On 2 May 1999, the Metropolitan Police Anti-Terrorist Branch charged 22-year-old David Copeland with murder. Copeland, who became known as the "London nail bomber", was a Neo-Nazi militant and a former member of two political groups, the British National Party and then the National Socialist Movement. The bombings were aimed at London's black, Bengali and LGBT communities.[1] Copeland was convicted of murder in 2000 and given six life sentences.[1]This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

This week we meet Marie Claire Jarratt, brewing shift lead at Brick Lane Brewing Company. Marie Claire, better known as MC, has had a very interesting pathway into the brewing industry. With a background in physics and mathematics, MC was working towards a PhD in experimental quantum physics when she discovered the craft brewing industry in Sydney's inner West. Her passion fired, MC wrote as a blogger on her own blog and beer writer and was awarded the beer Media Award at the Australian International Beer Awards in 2020. For that varied background, you'll hear MC's path forked many times and could have gone in many directions, but she has ended up working as a brewer, currently at Brick Lane brewing, a role in which saw her spend quite a lot of time on stage at awards ceremonies of late.. Her path to brewing has given her unique insights into beer, brewing and the brewing industry and this is a great chat with one of the emerging leaders of the next generation of Australian brewers. This episode of Beer is a Conversation is presented by HPA. Australia's leading hop grower offers a huge range of Aussie, international and innovative hop products that can help breweries of all sizes become more efficient, more sustainable, and more profitable.

8月5日-12日。上周末,几名在伦敦皇家艺术学院就读的中国留学生,在伦敦东区红砖巷(Brick Lane)将一处有名的涂鸦墙刷成了白色,并刷上了鲜红色的24字“社会主义核心价值观”,这个所谓“行为艺术创作”在中文互联网引发了巨大争议。涂鸦策划人一鹊表示,自己“要充分弘扬社会主义价值观”,给作品加上了高深的理论解释——“用社会主义的构建方式来反殖民西方的虚假自由”,并引用《道德经》,将作品命名为“反者道之动”。然而,就在海内外热议这条价值观标语之时,策划人却将此前的“爱国论述”紧急更换为了“中立论述”,称自己“没有政治立场”。或许令标语作者们没有想到的是,这面涂鸦墙很快就被加上了各种二次创作,原有的文字被反抗话语覆盖包围,各种涉及辱包、六四、女权、审查、防疫的“二创敏感内容”,令“爱国墙”成了“辱华墙”。好笑的是,有粉红将二创图片搬回微博并嘲讽“殖人破防”时,相关图片却遭到了删除,微博还将话题“#伦敦涂鸦墙”屏蔽。 本周,工信部要求开展App备案的信息令IT行业人心惶惶,担心该领域将迎来彻底荒漠化的未来。新政策要求app主办者履行备案手续,否则将被拒绝接入互联网,备案手续需在2024年4月前完成。无征兆降临的“app白名单制度”让不少人担心手机硬件厂商也会被迫跟进,未来国行手机系统或将内置一套“应用白名单”,最终可能导致网址白名单的出现,令中国的防火高墙最终成型。这样的联想并非毫无根据,去年年底,就有网友发现小米手机的MIUI13系统内置了“国家反诈中心”,而在几天前,MIUI系统开始将海外通讯应用Telegram提示为“恶意应用”,导致用户无法自主更新程序。 过去一周,“加速”一词再度频繁进入人们的视野,各类重大事件频发,连官方审查也出现了应对不瑕的情况。例如,河北霸州灾民群起抗议、红十字会再被网民深扒、房企巨头碧桂园承认暴雷、海外游客入境中国人数暴跌、医疗领域大规模反腐愈演愈烈......各种社会危机的集中爆发,恰如77年前新华日报那句社论——“一党独裁,遍地是灾”。 时间轴: 00:48 编者的话 06:50 一周荐读 08:30 一周词条 09:10 一周关注 17:15 一周惊奇 23:45 一周故事 在中国数字时代网站阅读全文:https://chinadigitaltimes.net/chinese/699312.html 在中国数字时代YouTube频道观看视频播讲:https://www.youtube.com/@CDTChinese/videos 在电报(Telegram)平台向我们投稿:https://t.me/cdtmedia_bot 支持CDT: https://chinadigitaltimes.net/chinese/paypal
There's been a bridge over the Thames in London for about 2000 years. In the time since its founding during the Roman Empire, London has become one of the world's most diverse cities. Today, it's as well known for its Indian food (try the restaurants in Brick Lane) and Middle Eastern cuisine (visit Edgeware Road) as it is for a proper afternoon tea (finger sandwiches, scones, pastries, and endless pots of tea). It's also a book lover's paradise with museums dedicated to literary classics — Hello, Sherlock Holmes! Good day, Mr. Dickens! – along with the British Library (don't miss the tour), Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey, and Shakespeare's Globe where you can watch a play in a faithful reproduction of the Bard's theater. In this episode, we clear up any confusion about London's main bridges, make a case for why you should visit the Tower's Ravenmaster (and his six raven friends), and learn about the mad skills of London cab drivers. Then we recommend five great books that took us there on the page, including a twisty courtroom drama, a time-traveling guidebook, a murder mystery set in London's North End, a beloved urban fantasy, and a modern classic with an unlikely hero. Here are the books about London we recommend on the show: Something to Hide by Elizabeth George Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch Anatomy of a Scandal by Sarah Vaughan London: A Travel Guide Through Time by Matthew Green Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit our show notes.

After a series of racially motivated murders in the East End of London in 1978, a large resistance formed against racism. In this episode, we take a look at three separate crimes that happened over three consecutive months, including the death of 10-year-old Kennith Singh, attacked just metres from his home in Plaistow, Altab Ali who was stabbed in the neck whilst walking through Whitechapel and Ishaque Ali who had been beaten by three youths in Hackney. This episode contains racial language which may cause offence. Lady Justice is a true crime podcast; therefore deals with incidents of violence, disturbing imagery and explicit content.

(Kate Bryan, Head of Collections for Soho House)'John Ball's work was a like a breath of fresh air on Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year in 2017 with its unique sense of mood and use of colour. The melancholic scenes that he constructs are poetic in themselves and full of story, to the point that they demand your attention and hold it very firmly indeed.' (Kathleen Soriano, curator)Commissioned by Teeth of the Sea (Rocket Recordings) to produce their debut album cover in 2009 and subsequently 'your mercury' (2010) and 'Master' (2013).John has previously exhibited in The National Portrait Gallery with the BP Portrait Awards in 2007 with his painting 'Commuter' This was also published in the '500 Portraits' hardback in 2011.In 2018 His first solo show ‘beware the void' debuted in Escondido, California.From 23-35 September, John will be showing his work at The New Artist Fair at in The Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, London, E1 – For more details go to https://www.newartistfair.com/For more information on the work of John Ball go to: https://www.beware-the-void.com/To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofartsIf you would like to promote your work, exhibition or any other creative project, please contact us at:Social Media: @ministryofartsorgEmail: ministryofartsorg@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Edgar Arts (@edgar._.arts) Edgar Arts is a collaborative group of three (Luke Edgar, Matthew Huggett and Jay Goodwin), who are all both tattoo artists and fine artists, all of which is created under the same roof in north Essex. LUKE EDGARTATTOO AND FINE ARTIST Luke works freehand to create undeniably creative tattoos. This is only bolstered by his impressive work on metal. Never content to plateau, you can expect fresh perspectives when working with him on your tattoo or fine art project. MATTHEW HUGGETTTATTOO AND FINE ARTIST Heavily inspired by his print methods of working, Matt freely juggles tattooing and art in one hand whilst savouring his morning coffee in the other. His work explores rugged, worn textures contrasting with smooth or negative space. JAY GOODWINTATTOO APPRENTICE AND FINE ARTIST Jay, despite being the least experienced tattoo artist in the studio, is an immense talent with oil and canvas. His photo realism painting technique renders his surreal concepts with great expertise. This confidence with the brush allows him to easily hone his tattoo art.

Abi Morgan is a BAFTA and Emmy-award winning playwright and screenwriter whose credits include The Iron Lady, Suffragette, Sex Traffic, The Hour, Brick Lane and Shame. She is the creator and writer of BBC drama, The Split. She has now written her first book. This is not a Pity Memoir about an extraordinarily tumultous period in her and her family's life. Prima Facie starring Jodie Comer, best known for her role as Villanelle in Killing Eve, is making her West End debut. Both star and play have been performing to glowing reviews. It is an incisive investigation into the criminal justice system, how it deals with sexual assault and then fails those seeking justice through it. A one-woman show, it tells the story of a criminal defence barrister who is raped by a colleague. Suzie Miller, who wrote the play, joins Emma Barnett in the Woman's Hour studio. Would you let your 2 year old walk to the shops on their own? The long running Japanese TV show Old Enough!, which has become available to stream on Netflix, follows kids as young as 2 while their parents send them off on their first ever errand away from home. Unknowingly followed by undercover TV camera operators. It has sparked debate about how much freedom we give our toddlers in the UK. Presenter: Emma Barnett Producer: Lucinda Montefiore
