Why are we commemorating Hiroshima’s 80th anniversary with new nuclear weapons? And why is the Govt backing idea of a glossy new PR campaign to persuade us we need nukes whilst simultaneously trying to block inquiry into impacts of nuclear war? Me for @indyvoices.bsky.social @cnduk.bsky.social

Last Friday @emmamcdoofus.bsky.social and I took our class on Audience Engagement to @lulgalleries.bsky.social to view the archives of @leedsanimation.bsky.social and it was really lovely dreaming up ideas for workshops. Sometimes I really love my job.

Remember LOP@rememberlop.bsky.social

A great #AnimatedActivism exhibition opened last night at @lulgalleries.bsky.social - so here's when the first film by @leedsanimation.bsky.social made front page news in LOP in 1978, plus a two page interview inside. Unlike LOP, btw, the workshop is still going today - respect.

Remember LOP@rememberlop.bsky.social

It's good to see LOP cited frequently among the sources in Gavin Butt's excellent book No Machos Or Pop Stars (@dukepress.bsky.social) - he's also got this par that neatly puts the paper in context with @redladder.bsky.social, @leedsanimation.bsky.social, #LeedsPostcards, #Suma and all the rest.

Remember LOP@rememberlop.bsky.social

And here's one of numerous pieces in #LeedsOtherPaper over the years about @leedswomensaid.bsky.social, this one from LOP 83 in June 1978. National and local #WomensAid archive material also features in the #AnimatedActivism exhibition at @lulgalleries.bsky.social @universityofleeds.bsky.social

Remember LOP@rememberlop.bsky.social

One night 45 years ago a brown envelope dropped through the letterbox at LOP Towers, giving #LeedsOtherPaper one of its biggest scoops. It was a leaked copy of the government's hitherto secret instructions on what to do in nuclear war. At the time, #ProtectAndSurvive was as scary as it was risible.

indyfilmlibrary.comNeat and tidy: Wallace & Gromit take the rot economy to taskWith technology firms having divorced their production processes from human needs, and instead undermining and harming our ability to do the things we enjoy in the name of progress/profit, the concept of AI being cool/powerful/scary has been used to quell criticism. Wallace & Gromit's latest adventure takes that to task, though, presenting AI and innovation for its own sake as not only harmful to a happy life, but utterly uncool.
