This Saturday, 6th of June at 2pm Hamza Shaikh, DS23 MArch student and the creator of a popular podcast series Two Worlds Design will be joined by three inspiring professionals in the field of architecture to discuss the difficult questions around employment in post-COVID-19 world. 

Hamza says:

Many students, myself included, are anxious and confused about the job landscape in architecture. There are many questions to be asked, but we don’t know whom to ask and when to ask. Well, the time to ask is now, and some of the people to ask are joining me this Saturday for this one-off event, LIVE on Instagram. But we need YOU to engage for this to work. Our last event was very successful, and this time we want to hear your voices. If you have any questions, views or experiences on this topic, PLEASE send me a message. We are looking for 3 people to join this event. Otherwise, send your general questions about what you would like to be addressed. See you there! 

The event will end with the announcements from Arthur Mamou-Mani and a collective Muslim Women in Architecture, so make sure you tune in!!!

Podcast: A Small Voice Conversations with Photographers

Posted on by Mirna Pedalo

Out NOW on A Small Voice podcast: David Moore on representation, the guilt-inducing, transgressive nature of documentary photography, his influential degree project “Pictures from the Real World” and why 30 years after it, he wrote a piece of verbatim theatre to help him deal with his discomfort over all those things. http://bit.ly/2Bg5VKr  Go listen! Learnings to made!

David Moore is a London based photographic artist once described as belonging to “the second wave of new colour documentary in Britain”. He has exhibited and published internationally and has work held in public and private collections. David has worked as a photographer and educator since graduating from West Surrey College of Art and Design, Farnham, in 1988. He is currently the Course Leader of MA Documentary Photography and Photojournalism at the University of Westminster. David’s 2017/18 project ‘Lisa and John’ responds to the archive of his influential 1988 graduation project Pictures from the real world – which was published as a book in 2011 – and employs theatre, installation, and collaboration. Lisa and John was launched at Format International Photography Festival in 2017, and included a theatrical play, The Lisa and John Slideshow, written and directed by David. The entire Lisa and John Project was exhibited and performed in London and Belfast in 2018 and received widespread acclaim.

Writer, Sean O’Hagan, wrote:

Moore is such a master of colour that he made me think more than once what William Eggleston’s photographs would have looked like had he been born in the north of England rather than the American south.

David’s current practice addresses agency and a critique of documentary as a genre using installation and theatre as a means posing questions around the production of knowledge through photography. 

In episode 115, David discusses, among other things:
