Pasonlini’s last work before he was murdered in 1975, Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom was only given an uncut release in the UK in 2000. Even though Salò is a very explicit and uncomfortable film to watch, its controversy often gets in the way of extraordinary film making about how monstrous humans can be. Introduced by Johnny Mains.

FoMO, mofos! is a dreamlike reflection on the consequences of hyper-connectivity and continuous self-exposure.

1989. Manchester. A frenzy of drugs, beats and bucket hats. Illegal raves. Acid parties. Just jumping up and down in a field and throwing two fingers to Thatcher… Remember it? Because we don’t. We weren’t even born. But Ian was. And Ian does remember. We’ve got f*ck all now (Ian tells us). So, we’re going back to 1989. We’re gonna neck a brown biscuit. We’re gonna get off our peanuts.

The political activism of Sir Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists (the Blackshirts) presented many problems for the police during the interwar period.

Utilising examples from Plymouth and Exeter, Dr Iain Channing, Lecturer in Criminology at Plymouth University, highlights the inconsistencies in policing practices, providing cultural, legal and practical explanations.

Haydn Nelson Mass
“Arguably Haydn’s greatest single composition”, as declared by his chief biographer, H.C. Robbins Landon, Haydn composed this highly dramatic and exciting work in 1798. Titled Missa in Angustiis (Mass for troubled times), it was later nicknamed Nelson Mass following a performance attended by Admiral Nelson in 1800.
It can sometimes be hard to notice and appreciate the world around us, we can so often be lost in a preoccupied world; yet we can find creative ways to disrupt our distracted habits.
This workshop, led by Duncan Moss, Lecturer in Clinical Psychology, Plymouth University and artist Karen Howse, introduces us to ideas and practices of ‘Contemplative Seeing’ – using something as simple as a pencil or pen, or reclaiming our gadgets as cameras, we can mark and celebrate moments of real awareness of the world.
If you have a phone/camera, pen and paper please bring it along,...
