I feel like I should write something.. Been here since around 12 and the time has just gone..
Dave sinclair - photographer, came in and that was good, so he could see what we were up to. He is still keen to do his live audio version with his photographs for the dockers and also with the 47. It would be good.
He said the thing he could see that was missing was Derek and Tony but also the issue of redundancies. I wonder if anyone has a copy of those redundancies.. and the tactics around that? Dave also has old copies of the militant too, which is brilliant.
Paula Roush also came in and said it was good I was doing this and that she might show me her protest sounds and work which related. She saw the December work which she liked. Funny as I dont recall her coming in...
Anyway today me and blutack go close and the walls got a bit more flyering.. which I think this helped. It needed some context, why now, what is happening now?

Whose side are you on? RSVP
Whose Side Are You on?
(47 Working Title) (45 Mins approx)
A pre-rough cut of a documentary about some of those involved in the campaign against cuts in Liverpool in the 80's will be shown over the next three days. This Liverpool 47, as they became known, and the surrounding campaign is becoming more and more relevant as many Labour councils chose to implement huge cuts, despite local and national opposition. They argue there is no choice, this piece is a tiny contribution to this ongoing debate. In London, there are only a few council seats being contested, however across the country 180 anti cuts (TUSC) candidates are standing, arguing there is a choice.
It is a relatively small collection of interviews, with some of the councillors, workers and local people involved at the time. Under Thatcher, the Tories made huge local and national cuts, Liverpool city council was one of a dozen councils that had voted NOT to pass on Tory cuts but in the end only Liverpool & Lambeth stood firm.
This pre-rough cut is a starting point to show a little of how & why they fought the cuts and built more council housing in 4 years than the rest of the country, as well as so much more.
Dave Sinclair (photographer) will has also agreed for his photographs to be shown as part of this. He also is likely to be in for an hour too.
I will show this 2-3 times a day (contact me if you have a short amount of time and need to know the schedule):
The Digital Art Gallery,
Borough Road, SE1
Between Elephant & Castle and Borough Tube.
11am - 5pm Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday this week only!
(Non LSBU staff & Students need to contact me to get on a visitors list)
Look forward to seeing you over this week and please forward to anyone you think might be interested in this and RSVP if you are thinking of coming.
This project may take a year to fully complete but we thought it best to get some feedback in now and see what you thought.
