Ian Macdonald (b. 1946) is an internationally acclaimed photographer born and raised in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire, UK. He studied Graphic Design and Printmaking at Teesside College of Art in 1968 and went on to study Painting and Photography at Sheffield School of Art, Photography and Graphic Design at Birmingham Polytechnic and Education at Lancaster University. He pursued photography alongside drawing – his first love - painting and printmaking.Since 1968, Ian has consistently photographed the people and places of Teesside, one of Europe's most heavily industrialised areas in the north east of England. His love of the region, the beauty of the landscape – great expanses of wildness nestling among industrial settings - and his solid admiration for the people working and living amongst this environment has resulted in a completely honest and passionate depiction of a place and its community.“The most successful of my photographs seem to be a product of an exploration into my environment and the people I live and work amongst and an excitement generated in me by what I confront. Sometimes by-product would seem a more appropriate term, because only rarely do images really come near to saying anything about the strength, humour, vitality, atmosphere, pathos and despair which seems to make up what goes on around us all. Always, I am spurred on by a tingling sensation at the possibility, this time, perhaps, the image may really say something”.Ian's work has been included in various publications, such as England Gone, Smith's Dock Shipbuilders, Images of the Tees, Eton and The Blast Furnace. His work has been exhibited internationally and is included in many private and public photography collections around the world. In 2024 Ian had a major retrospective entitled Fixing Time, covering the first twenty years of his work, displayed across two venues in the north east of England - Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens and Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art.Ian is currently working on a series of forthcoming books with GOST Books. In episode 252, Ian discusses, among other things: His recent dual exhibitions, Fixing Time, in the North East of EnglandHow his fascination for drawing took him to art collegeHis discomfort with his work being put in the documentary pigeonholeFinding it hard to approach your subjectsA brief description of the area he grew up and photographed inHis transition from drawing to photographyGreatham Creek and the portrait (above) that made him excitedHis early memories of his grandfather and father and wanting to celebrate and document their historyHis year spent as artist in residence at Eton CollegeHis reasons for choosing to teach in a school and not at art college Referenced:Len TabnerCesare PaveseBruce DavidsonBill BrandtVic Allen, Dean Clough GalleryGraham SmithMartin ParrChris KillipTom WoodMax BeckmanGoyaTitianDelacroixWebsite | Short film about Ian by Jamie Macdonald“When I first went to Greatham Creek, there was no history anywhere about it. I couldn't find anything written down. So I wrote a lot down. I talked to people. I went into pretty deep research into archives in the local library and stuff like that. And I guess this was part of the drive for [photographing] both the shipyard and the furnace. Because maybe I did have an inkling, because there was nothing about the creek - where's the stuff about the furnace?… about the men who worked there, like my dad and granddad? Where is their history? And I wanted to celebrate their history. I wanted to celebrate what they were. I wanted a record, a document, a memory of them. And that's what drove me to do it.” Become a full tier 1 member here to access exclusive additional subscriber-only content and the full archive of previous episodes for £5 per month.For the tier 2 archive-only membership, to access the full library of past episodes for £3 per month, go here.Subscribe to my weekly newsletter here for everything A Small Voice related and much more besides.Follow me on Instagram here.Build Yourself a Squarespace Website video course here.

Dr Tanzil Shafique discusses his forthcoming book, City of Desire: An Urban Biography of the Largest Slum in Bangladesh, on Episode 127 of A is for Architecture.  Published by Bloomsbury, and out in November, City of Desire describes ‘Karail, the largest informal settlement in Bangladesh [and] the production of informal urbanism through a brand-new approach rooted in deep ethnography and spatial mapping.' There's also, in a way a deep reading of a place as something more than just stuff. As Tanzil suggests, ‘following Latour's elegant actor network theory, there has been a lot of talk about how materials matter, but I want to take it up a notch and talk about [matter] at a settlement scale, and how, even within a city, how it [matter/ Korail] actively, you know, is an is an agent by itself.' Now there's an idea. Tanzil is Lecturer of Urban Design and Director of the Postgraduate Programmes at The University of Sheffield School of Architecture. He is there, on X and LinkedIn.

Sanjukta Jitendhar​​​​ is an architect working at Mikhail Riches. In this episode she discusses her professional philosophy and aspirations, and her views on rent affordability and home ownership, particularly for her generation. She also talks about refurbishing and repurposing existing homes and buildings, rather than demolishing and rebuilding them.Sanju (as she's known) started to develop an interest in sustainable and equitable living for all as she was child in Bangalore, southern India. As the city enjoyed an extraordinary tech boom, millions of workers moved to Bangalore to service the tech pros' needs. Her grandparents also moved to look after Sanju while her parents, computer scientists, worked long hours, six days a week. Watching a developing inequitable housing situation gave Sanju the motivation to move to the UK and study architecture as a young adult. It also gave her the impetus to seek employment with a company that met her values of sustainable and equitable living across generations and societies.Mentioned in this episodeSanjukta Jitendhar professional profileMikhail Riches architectsRIBA Stirling Prize 2019 winner Goldsmith StreetThe Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA)Bangalore: India's high-growth tech hubUniversity of Sheffield School of ArchitectureUniversity of Westminster Master of ArchitectureAbout ProGRESS Each episode of ProGRESS features podcast host and long-time journalist Sandra Kessell in conversation with people working, teaching and learning in Green, Ethical, Sustainable and Socially Responsible sectors (the GRESS of ProGRESS).

Housing and neighborhoods have an important contribution to make to our wellbeing and our sense of our place in the world. Housing for Hope and Wellbeing (Routledge, 2023), written for a lay audience (with policy makers firmly in mind) offers a useful and intelligible overview of our housing system and why it is in ‘crisis' while acting as an important reminder of how housing contributes to social value, defined as community, health, self development and identity. It argues for a holistic digital map-based planning system that allows for the sensitive balancing of the triple bottom line of sustainability: social, environmental, and economic value. It sets out a vision of what our housing system could look like if we really put the wellbeing of people and planet first, as well as a route map on how to get there. Written primarily from the point of view of an architect, the account weaves across industry, practice, and academia cross-cutting disciplines to provide an integrated view of the field. The book focuses on the UK housing scene but draws on and provides lessons for housing cultures across the globe. Illustrated throughout with case studies, this is the go-to book for anyone who wants to look at housing in a holistic way. Flora Samuel is Professor of Architecture at the University of Cambridge. She helped set up the new School of Architecture at the University of Reading and is former Head of the University of Sheffield School of Architecture and the first RIBA Vice President for Research. The author of Why Architects Matter: Evidencing and Communicating the Value of Architects (Routledge, 2018) she has spent the last decade researching the positive impact of good design on people. Her interests are now moving to land use and social justice, both key to addressing climate change. She is well known as an industry advisor on the social value of the design of housing and places and a strong advocate of social value mapping. She is also known for her unorthodox writings on Le Corbusier, about whom she has published extensively. A mother of three daughters, she is based in Wales. Aleem Mahabir is a PhD candidate in Geography at the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica. His research interests lie at the intersection of Urban Geography, Social Exclusion, and Psychology. His dissertation research focuses on the link among negative psychosocial dispositions, exclusion, and under-development among marginalized communities in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Richard Holland and Jonathan Harvey, founders of Holland Harvey Architects.    The practice is on a mission to celebrate the everyday through design. It is committed to high environmental and social impact standards, galvanized through its status as a Certified B Corporation. The studio creates extraordinary sustainable buildings and interiors across the UK and abroad. Richard's focus within the studio is creating aspirational hospitality environments, recently having completed Inhabit Hotels' second site at Queen's Gardens in London's Paddington, alongside several other ongoing hotel refurbishment projects. He sees London as the world's largest refurbishment project, which fuels his passion for the conservation and adaptive reuse of existing and historic buildings – breathing new life into the unloved. Jonathan studied architecture at The Bartlett, University College London, Sheffield School of Architecture, as well as Westminster University. During his early career, Jonathan worked with Michael and Henry Squire at Squire and Partners as well as for Michaelis Boyd Associates, working on a range of high-profile commercial and residential projects. During his time both at university and in his early career, Jonathan found a passion for the role the architect can play in magnifying social impact. He founded ‘Free Architecture', a social enterprise that facilitates pro bono design to the third sector.  Alongside running Holland Harvey, Jonathan commits actively to the academic sphere by teaching Architecture at the University of the Creative Arts in Canterbury.”   In this episode, we will be discussing: The economic and business benefits of becoming a B Corp The benefits of Financial transparency inside a business 1% Pro bono offering   To learn more about Richard & Jonathan, visit their: Website: https://hollandharvey.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollandharvey/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/hollandharvey/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HH_Architects Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hollandharveyarchitects   ► Feedback?

In our latest Health on the Line podcast, Matthew talks to Professor Sue Mason, University of Sheffield School of Health and Related research about the changes needed to Urgent and Emergency Care ahead of NHS England's review, including returning to ‘corridor medicine' in Emergency Departments to help with ambulance handover delays and that the resources that go in to NHS 111 does not reduce demand on emergency departments and the resources could be used in a much more effective way. Sue has written an NHS Confederation report to be published shortly setting out recommendations to improve Urgent and Emergency Care. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Juliet Sakyi-Ansah is an architect experimenting with architecture as a tool for driving social and environmental change using participatory and collaborative approaches. Invested in the potential of collective action, Juliet's explorative work and approach often centres on people and place identity and how that manifests in the practice, process and production of architecture and the built environment. Juliet's emerging Studio OASA is her creative space for her research and design practice, process and production. Juliet has taught at the Birmingham School of Architecture and Design as a Visiting Tutor. She has co-organised architecture conferences and symposiums including The Production of Place at UEL School of Architecture and Ecology theory forum 09 at the Sheffield School of Architecture. She recently collaborated with the Place, Culture and Identity research group on the inaugural Black in Architecture symposium on Race in Architectural Education: Decolonising the Curriculum at Oxford Brookes School of Architecture. Juliet founded and spearheads The Architects' Project. Here, she conceived and developed Narratives, a semi- academic publication space for projects exploring new and emerging ways of practice, writings on planning, politics and policy in architecture, the built environment and related subjects. As part of The Architects' Project, Juliet is creating /tap Collective platform as a collaborative and creative lab that addresses complex social and environmental challenges and opportunities. Juliet's current work on this platform includes Black in Architecture research unit, a change initiative addressing race and equity in UK Architecture. She also works on Learn/Play, a place-based design initiative that explores design opportunities for underused and abandoned outdoor spaces. Through the /tap Exchange platform at The Architect's Project, Juliet convenes interdisciplinary experts and communities for dialogue. For this, she currently coordinates the /tapTakeoverWeekends. She uses /tap Reach platform for community outreach projects. Juliet received her BA Architecture and M.Arch from the Sheffield School of Architecture and completed her RIBA Part 3 at the Architectural Association School of Architecture. She is currently completing her PhD in Architecture and the Built Environment at Oxford Brookes University.

In Episode 10 of A is for Architecture, I speak with the architects and educators Maggie Ma, assistant professor of Architecture at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Mark Kingsley, who collectively run the Hong Kong-based not-for-profit architecture practice, Domat. We discuss their work in detail, focusing on the social production of community spaces, particularly for lower-incomed and informal people. I first met Mark at Sheffield School of Architecture when we both studied in Doina Petrescu's Unit 2, an educational moment which has had a lasting impact on both our careers, orientating us (I think) towards the social capacity and identity of architecture and its production. Through Mark I got to meet Maggie and have watched as their expertise has moved from paper to the real world of practice and enactment. Domat can be found here: https://www.domat.hk/; Maggie's academic profile is here: http://www.arch.cuhk.edu.hk/person/ma-kit-yi-maggie/ Happy listening. www.aisforarchitecture.org + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Music credits: Bruno Gillick

Editor's note: Fiona Boissonade, PhD, is Professor of Neuroscience and Director of Impact and External Engagement at the University of Sheffield School of Clinical Dentistry, UK. She is also an executive member of the University of Sheffield Neuroscience Institute and leads the Institute's “Technology: Devices and autonomous systems” cross-cutting theme. Dr. Boissonade has a major research interest in the mechanisms of altered neuronal excitability that contribute to the development of chronic pain. Much of this research has been done at the academic-industrial interface. Collaborations with GSK, Pfizer, Daiichi Sankyo and Eli Lilly have funded a wide range of translational studies, using preclinical (in vitro and in vivo) models and human tissues to identify and validate a range of regulators of neuronal excitability as potential targets for the development of novel analgesics and anti-inflammatory therapeutics. Dr. Boissonade also has significant expertise in nerve regeneration. This work investigates methods of improving nerve repair through the use of a range of therapeutic agents, bioengineered conduits and cell therapies. Other projects include investigation of neuronal-stromal interactions in tumor progression and wound healing. In this podcast, Dr. Boissonade speaks with PRF Correspondent Frederick Jones, CASE PhD student, University of Leeds, UK, and Eli Lilly & Co, US, to discuss her work in the area of nerve repair and pain, the importance of bridging the translational divide in research, and more.

Is your child 'school ready'? Your answer will depend on what you think that term means. And from policy makers to parents, and teachers to pupils, everyone seems to have a different view.  “There is no clear definition about school readiness actually means, therefore, it has been left open to interpretation,” explains Dr Louise Kay, who researches EYFS practice at the University of Sheffield School of Education. On this week’s Tes Podagogy she talks at length about the problems with the school readiness concept and the way it is assessed by government.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Features of a bad thesis - Tim Corcoran of the University of Sheffield School of Education argues that a lack of current content in the Literature Review and a failure to consider alternative positions to that of the author would be weaknesses in a thesis.

Jonvee click name above to listen to the showSinger, Poetess, Actress and Photographer Demetra Jonvere Artis, better known in the poetry world as Jonvee, was born May 17, 1958 in Washington DC to Margaret E Artis and Richard Blandon a well known Doo Wop singer and recording artist.  Jonvee, raised by her Mom and Grandparents was always a gifted child especially with drawing. She grew up singing in her gospel choir and would spend hours sitting in her window sill writing short stories.   She was only thirteen when she entered an art contest and people showed up at her door wanting her to attend their school of arts, which at the time her family just could not afford. She attended Johnson Jr. High School in S.E. Washington, DC where she excelled in singing and running track. She even acted in a couple of plays for drama class.  Where she excelled in extracurriculars she failed in classwork.  Some of her teachers considered her to be to slow.    For as long as she could remember she had heard this and it cut deep inside her mentally.  No matter how hard she tried she just could not keep up so she gave up.  She dropped out of school, got married and had her first child all at the age of seventeen.  Life was hard with her husband money was tight and the family grew. She tried to pursue other careers such as modeling for magazines such as Sears and JC Penny’s but there were many road blocks and it wasn’t easy, so she decided to stay put and be a stay at home mom only taking jobs when things got tight.  She taught her children to read and write and realized that if she could teach her children to read, write and recite poetry all before they started school how slow could she be.  So when her youngest child was in high school she told him that she would graduate before he did.  That she did with very high grade point averages in history and science.     On an academic roll she attended Strartford Career Institute for Interior Decorating and later went on to Sheffield School of interior Design where she received her Certificate of Graduation from both schools.  In 2007 Jonvee went back to school classes attending P.G. College in Maryland.  She is an amateur photographer and is now thinking of taking those photography classes.  Jonvee turned fifty in 2008 and does not have any plans of slowing down.  She says Life is just beginning and it’s never too late to try.  She is still singing and recording her poetry and has done poetry readings for UNESSCO Center for Peace Arts Festival and other poetry readings for women’s church groups etc.She has many offers on the table right now but decided to get her recording out first.  She’s Looking forward to performing her works in the future. Not bad for a girl that they say was to slow.  Now Jonvee is taking private photos for couples and working with other artist promoting their work. Recording her poetry has been a long time coming with the upcoming release “Moma’s Wildflower” and another due out in the summer of 2013.
