Led by the University of Buckingham, this event series included workshops and events around Dickens’s last unfinished novel, ‘The Mystery of Edwin Drood’. These events contributed to an ogoing international project which explores this unfinished work through a reading group and blog developed from a digital re-release of Dickens's original monthly instalments, becoming a crowd-sourced whodunnit inquiry into which character the public believe committed the murder of Edwin Drood.

June 16 was just two days after the first anniversary of the defining event in the UK last year — the Grenfell Tower fire, an entirely preventable disaster, in which 72 people died when an inferno engulfed a 24-storey tower block in North Kensington in west London — and, to mark the anniversary, the survivors’ group Justice4Grenfell and the Fire Brigades Union organised a solidarity march in central London, starting and ending outside 10 Downing Street, and including a visit to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government on Marsham Street, which is where this photo was taken, as the march came to a halt outside the ministry.
At each of the locations, there were powerful speeches about the need for accountability, and the need for everyone affected by the fire — everyone in social housing, for example, and everyone who understands the dangers of the prevailing neo-liberalism that preys on everyone except the rich — to keep on working together, to build on the extraordinary solidarity created in the Grenfell community in the last year, and to always remember those whose lives were so needlessly lost.
The disaster last June should never have happened because the tower was built of concrete that is largely resistant to fire, and because of a ‘compartmentalisation’, which is meant to ensure that any fire will be contained within the individual apartment in which it breaks out for an hour, giving the fire services time to arrive on the scene. However, Grenfell’s structural integrity had been fatally compromised during recent refurbishment, which was designed to make it look better, but which involved the application of highly flammable cladding.
The truth about Grenfell, which is slowly coming to light in the government’s official inquiry but was known to anyone paying attention at the time of the fire, is that those responsible for the safety of the residents of social housing in tower blocks — central government, local government, management companies and contractors — were all part of a world in which red tape had deliberately been cut to enable greater profits to be made, and it was somehow considered acceptable for dangerously inflammable material to be used as cladding. It’s also important to note that the establishment’s position now seems, shamefully, to be to blame the FBU for the disaster, when , of course, the real blame lies with those who turned a safe tower into a death trap in the first place.
For a truly shocking warning of the fire before it happened, see this Grenfell Action Group article from November 2016, just one of many ignored by Kensington and Chelsea Council and the Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation, which managed all of the council’s social housing: grenfellactiongroup.wordpress.com/2016/11/20/kctmo-playin...

"A leaf is an organ of a vascular plant, as defined in botanical terms, and in particular in plant morphology. Foliage is a mass noun that refers to leaves as a feature of plants.[1][2]
Typically a leaf is a thin, flattened organ borne above ground and specialized for photosynthesis, but many types of leaves are adapted in ways almost unrecognisable in those terms: some are not flat (for example many succulent leaves and conifers), some are not above ground (such as bulb scales), and some are without major photosynthetic function (consider for example cataphylls, spines, and cotyledons).
Conversely, many structures of non-vascular plants, or even of some lichens, which are not plants at all (in the sense of being members of the kingdom Plantae), do look and function much like leaves. Furthermore, several structures found in vascular plants look like leaves but are not actually leaves; they differ from leaves in their structures and origins. Examples include phyllodes, cladodes, and phylloclades.[2]" WIKIPEDIA

📓 Sun Tzu - The Art of War:
Defines the source of strength as unity, not size, and discusses the five factors that are needed to succeed in any war. In order of importance, these critical factors are: Attack, Strategy, Alliances, Army and Cities.
📝 Type: eDucational book
🎨 Style: Military Art

👩🏫 The Art of War (孫子兵法) is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the Late Spring and Autumn Period (roughly 5th century BC). The work, which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ("Master Sun"), is composed of 13 chapters. Each one is devoted to a different set of skills or art related to warfare and how it applies to military strategy and tactics. For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that was formalized as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080. The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has influenced both Far Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy, politics, sports, lifestyles and beyond.
The book contains a detailed explanation and analysis of the 5th-century BC Chinese military, from weapons, environmental conditions, and strategy to rank and discipline. Sun also stressed the importance of intelligence operatives and espionage to the war effort. Considered one of history's finest military tacticians and analysts, his teachings and strategies formed the basis of advanced military training for millennia to come.
The book was translated into French and published in 1772 (re-published in 1782) by the French Jesuit Jean Joseph Marie Amiot. A partial translation into English was attempted by British officer Everard Ferguson Calthrop in 1905 under the title The Book of War. The first annotated English translation was completed and published by Lionel Giles in 1910. Military and political leaders such as the Chinese communist revolutionary Mao Zedong, Japanese daimyō Takeda Shingen, Vietnamese general Võ Nguyên Giáp, and American military generals Douglas MacArthur and Norman Schwarzkopf Jr. are all cited as having drawn inspiration from the book.

“I was diagnosed with a brain tumour when I was ten. In order for them to remove it during surgery they had to go through the area which affected my sight. My parents had the difficult decision of weighing that up. It could have been that I lost all my sight, but they managed to save some and I have partial central vision now.”
“What’s been the hardest thing to overcome?”
"Accepting it myself. I was told by a friend that I needed to make others feel comfortable, so that I could feel comfortable with it. I know it sounds backwards but it really was true. I couldn’t be shy about it, I had to be confident and own it. Accepting help was difficult at first, getting the cane for example. I’d say that, ‘I don’t need it’ or 'I can do without it’. I didn’t want it to define me but eventually I realised that there’s nothing wrong with asking for help, in fact it’s necessary to lead a normal life.”

BYOBW - "Bring Your Own Big Wheel" race (San Francisco).
This is a free and unauthorized event. People race with Big Wheel toy tricycles and other non-motorized vehicles down the steep and curvy segment of Vermont Street in Potrero Hill. The racers reach dangerous speed and frequently crash. This race used to take place on the famous curvy segment of Lombard St, but because some of the Lombard St residents did not like the event and asked the police to shut it down, in 2009 they moved the BYOBW race to Vermont St where the neighbors have a more positive attitude.
For more information about this event, please read the album description.

Each participant wrote a word or phrase on a speech bubble that they felt should be considered in a definition of social inclusion.
The group then brainstormed examples of factors leading to social exclusion. e.g. age, gender etc.
These were then considered by the group and each group arrived at their own definition of social inclusion to work with for the day.

Wellington is quite an 'arty' and cultural sort of place. I've not met anyone yet really who doesn't at least go to a bar and take in some music regularly, if not more hardcore gallery viewings, opera, theatre and book convention visits. I kinda feel sometimes as though I'm little 'low-brow' in this city, but then I realise that even if I lack the language with which to define myself amongst this sea of 'cultured people' it doesn't matter anyway, it's the self expression and desire to say something about someone, somewhere or a something that matters.
The sea front, down at the water's edge in the city is littered with poetry cast into concrete, hung on the side of jetties and pinned to walls. It's a very common thing for visitors or locals to photograph when trying to describe their home, almost painfully so, yet these three words, an excerpt from a greater quote struck me.
Here they're seen almost out of context, but it's the context you can see this in that struck me. For all the many techniques and fancy fashions in photography, be it HDR's, off-camera-flash, ring flash, heroine chic portraits, selective colouring (dear lord may you burn alive for committing that particular sin!) the fact remains that by taking a photograph, you are defining your subject in terms of light and a moment. (I won't quote Henri Cartier-Bresson there, it's way too corny.) I admire the simplicity of that, a good photo doesn't have to be technique, and often isn't. We get so many photographers now hiding behind the veil of Photoshop that when stripped of all their toys struggle to take an image that excels simply with what your eye actually sees.
Take a moment guys, shoot something without your fancy toys and get back to the roots! :-)
