Simon Grennan's book A Theory of Narrative Drawing (Palgrave MacMillan, 2017) offers an original new conception of visual storytelling, proposing that drawing, depictive drawing and narrative drawing are produced in an encompassing dialogic system of embodied social behavior. It refigures the existing descriptions of visual story-telling that pause with theorizations of perception and the articulation of form. The book identifies and examines key issues in the field, including: the relationships between vision, visualization and imagination; the theoretical remediation of linguistic and narratological concepts; the systematization of discourse; the production of the subject; idea and institution; and the significance of resources of the body in depiction, representation and narrative. It then tests this new conception in practice with two original visual demonstrations to clarify the particular dialectic relationships between subjects and media, in an examination of drawing style and genre, social consensus and self-conscious constraint. The book's originality derives from its clear articulation of a wide range of sources in proposing a conception of narrative drawing, and the extrapolation of this new conception in these two visual demonstrations. In this Interview Dr. Grennan discusses different strategies for reading this book, explains the graphiotactic array, and talks about how one can draw in drag. Dr. Simon Grennan is a Professor of Art and Design, at the University of Chester and has been practicing internationally as an artist since 1990. As part the collaborative team Grennan & Sperandio (Kartoonkings.com), he is well known as a pioneer of interventionist, New Genre and post-relational practice, through publishing, television and social action projects. Dr. Grennan is also an educator and an awarded scholar of narrative drawing, with particular expertise in the histories of drawing, comics, remediation and inter-media. He is a recognised theorist of the pedagogic relationship between practice and research and is an experienced, public facing practitioner.

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Conor Grennan, the head of Generative AI and Dean of Students at New York University's Stern School of Business, a TEDx speaker and a #1 Inernatonal Best-selling author of Little Princes: One Man's Promise to Bring Home the Lost Children of Nepal. In this episode, they discuss how ChatGPT, BARD, BING, their extensions and plug-ins can power your career and make you the go-to person for AI in business and life. ... Prior to working at NYU, in search of adventure, a then-29-year-old Conor Grennan traded his day job for a year-long trip around the globe, beginning with a three-month stint volunteering at the Little Princes Children's Home, an orphanage in war-torn Nepal. When Conor learned the unthinkable truth about their situation, he was stunned: The children were not orphans at all. Child traffickers were promising families in remote villages to protect their children from the civil war—for a huge fee—by taking them to safety. They would then abandon the children far from home, in the chaos of Nepal's capital, Kathmandu. For Conor, what began as a footloose adventure becomes a commitment to reunite the children he had grown to love with their families, risking his life in the process. Grennan's experience is captured in his international best-selling book (see below).

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.05.14.097014v1?rss=1 Authors: Balasubramani, P. P., Ojeda, A., Maric, V., Le, H., Grennan, G., Alim, F., Zafar-Khan, M., Diaz-Delgado, J., Silveira, S., Ramanathan, D., Mishra, J. Abstract: A fundamental set of cognitive abilities enable humans to efficiently process goal-relevant information, suppress irrelevant distractions, maintain information in working memory, and act flexibly in different behavioral contexts. Yet, studies of human cognition and their underlying neural mechanisms usually evaluate these cognitive constructs in silos, instead of comprehensively in-tandem within the same individual. Here, we developed a scalable, mobile platform that we refer to BrainE (short for Brain Engagement), to rapidly assay several essential aspects of cognition simultaneous with wireless electroencephalography (EEG) recordings. Using BrainE, we rapidly assessed five aspects of cognition including (1) selective attention, (2) response inhibition, (3) working memory, (4) flanker interference and (5) emotion interference processing, in 102 healthy young adults. We evaluated stimulus encoding in all tasks using the EEG neural recordings, and isolated the cortical sources of the spectrotemporal EEG dynamics. Additionally, we used BrainE in a two-visit study in a subset of 25 young adults to investigate the reliability of the neuro-cognitive data as well as its plasticity to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We found that stimulus encoding on multiple cognitive tasks could be rapidly assessed, identifying common as well as distinct task processes in both sensory and cognitive control brain regions. Event related synchronization (ERS) in the theta (3-7 Hz) and alpha (8-12 Hz) frequencies as well as event related desynchronization (ERD) in the beta frequencies (13-30 Hz) were distinctly observed in each task. The observed ERS/ERD effects were overall anticorrelated. The two-visit study confirmed high test-retest reliability for both cognitive and neural data, and neural responses showed specific TMS protocol driven modulation. This first study with the BrainE platform showcases its utility in studying neuro-cognitive dynamics in a rapid and scalable fashion. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Tom Grennan Born in Bedford but based in London, singer-songwriter Tom Grennan first found fame as the guest vocalist on Chase & Status’s track “All Goes Wrong”. A Hottest Record on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 Show, the track gave Grennan the chance to cut his teeth in the Radio 1 Live Lounge and on BBC Two’s Later… with Jools Holland. But it might not have turned out that way. As a teenager, he had a promising football career, playing for Luton Town, Northampton Town, Aston Villa and Stevenage. “I was close to playing over in the States but something was telling me not to and obviously it was the music,” he told Music Week earlier this year. “My head was turned by music and people saying I had a voice!” Tom’s first album Lighting Matches was one of the 10 best-selling debuts of 2018. Filled with huge tunes like “Found What I’ve Been Looking For”, “Barbed Wire” and “Something In The Water”, the album showcased Tom’s emotional, careworn voice, a rasp full of devilment and mischief as well as love and solace. Tom’s new single “This is the Place” is a song about finding a place of complete calm and escaping utter chaos and carnage.

Join one of Gladfest’s most notable, energetic speakers for another trip into the surprising side of the Victorian age. In 2017 Simon found an illustrated novel, published in 1877, on the shelves at Chetham’s Library, Manchester. The Story of a Honeymoon was written and illustrated by Charles H. Ross and Ambrose Clarke – but Simon knew better. Having spent some years immersed in Victorian cartooning Simon was well-placed to identify that Ambrose Clarke was in fact, the cross-dressing, comic-strip-writing, Ally-Sloper-drawing, very-much-female Marie Duval (1845-1890). Simon tells more of his extraordinary discovery.

Obscure musical beginnings for Tom Grennan Apparently, and according to himself, Tom's musical beginnings are hazy. He remembers singing a Kooks track at a party and was encouraged by his friends to take up music. Playing accompanied by his acoustic guitar in pubs around London for three years, Tom was eventually picked up by an Insanity Records rep. After a debut EP, and as listener Jamie so rightfully said, Tom was featured on a Chase and Status track and was voted Hottest Record on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show. A big break for Tom. As a result of this, he has been featured on Radio 1's Live Lounge and BBC2's Later with Jools Holland. Buy Tom Grennan's new LP on super-delicious red vinyl here. With a cocksure swagger, Grennan's assured debut makes Bedford sound like HollywoodNME Magazine With an admirable 4 out of 5 stars rating from NME, Tom's debut LP Lighting Matches is set to put him on the right path. Whether or not this is enough to get him there is yet to be seen. It certainly lights the touch paper. The strength of his cross-generational and genre-hopping appeal has helped him sell out venues such as the Brixton Academy even before the wax was released. This debut isn't perfect, but it at least marks out his territory and sets the stage for things to come. We feel Tom Grennan knows exactly what he's doing. However, he may have the voice but he has yet to find the magic to set himself apart from the other chart wallers. Good luck Tom, we'll watch your career with gusto. What do we do here?

Join Simon Grennan as he immerses you in the exciting, strange and compelling world of Victorian comics genius Marie Duval, lost for 130 years. You will follow his voyage of discovery, hearing the story of unearthing Duval’s work with colleagues Roger Sabin and Julian Waite, and bringing over 1,500 comic strips, vignettes and drawings to light. Duval was a stage actress as well as a cartoonist. You will both hear and see how experiences of the Victorian stage profoundly influenced her drawings and her comic vision. Simon, Roger and Julian are the creators of 'The Marie Duval Archive', available free online at www.marieduval.org. They have also just published the first ever book of her work: Marie Duval (Myriad Editions) recreates the oddball thrills, slapstick humour and keen pleasures of observation that mark her uniquely drawn brand of visual comedy, and which prove her to be one of the founders of British comics.

Beautiful and haunting to look at, 'Dispossession' embeds the reader in a uniquely wrought experience of the mid-nineteenth century.
