What are the forces that threaten it? Should academics ever be allowed near Twitter? In Academic Diary, Les Back has chronicled three decades of his academic career, turning his sharp and often satirical eye to the everyday aspects of life on campus and the larger forces that are reshaping it. Presented as a collection of entries from a single academic year, the diary moves from the local to the global, from PowerPoint to the halls of power. With entries like "Ivory Towers" and "The Library Angel, " these smart, humorous, and sometimes absurd campus tales not only demystify the opaque rituals of scholarship but also offer a personal perspective on the far-reaching issues of university life. Commenting on topics that range from the impact of commercialization and fee increases to measurement and auditing research, the diary offers a critical analysis of higher education today. At the same time, it is a passionate argument for the life of the mind, the importance of collaborative thinking, and the reasons that scholarship and writing are still vital for making sense of our troubled and divided world. 0aEducation, Higher. 0aEducation, HigherxSocial aspects. 0aUniversities and colleges.  aBK  aMARIONb40c20160407lGOL01h1321  aJENNIFERb40c20160412lGOL01h122601270cam  2200373   4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002800072020002500100035002700125035002200152035002800174035002100202035001400223040003500237245011100272264004100383300002800424336002600452337002800478338002700506490003300533500002000566504005100586650003800637650004700675650003100722700002700753830003400780993000700814995003800821995003700859u214035SIRSI20170627055436.0160926s2017||||enk||||||b||||000 0|eng|d  a9781906897390qhardback  a1906897395qhardback  a(Sirsi) i9781906897390  a(Sirsi) 000464337  a(OCoLC)959040823bOCoLC  a(OCoLC)959040823  a000464337  aYDXbengcYDXdBDXdOCLCQdMYG04aThe death of public knowledge? :bhow free markets destroy the general intellect /cedited by Aeron Davis. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c[2017].  axi, 262 pages ;c21 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier1 aGoldsmiths Press PERC series  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 0aPublic domainxPolitical aspects. 0aFreedom of informationxPolitical aspects. 0aCapitalism and mass media.1 aDavis, Aeron,eeditor. 0aGoldsmiths Press PERC series.  aBK  aMARIONb40c20170627lGOL01h1054  aDIANAb40c20170802lGOL01h102804200cam  2200433   4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002900072020002600101035002700127035002200154035001400176040007300190082001500263245017600278264004100454300002800495336002600523337002800549338002700577500002000604504005100624505264900675650002803324650001803352650003403370650004003404650003403444650003503478700004303513700003503556700003103591700003203622700002903654993000703683995003803690995003803728u214036SIRSI20170802153400.0170203s2017||||enk||||||b||||001 0|eng||  a9781906897406qhardcover  a1906897409qhardcover  a(Sirsi) i9781906897406  a(Sirsi) 000464338  a000464338  aDLCbengerdacDLCdBTCTAdOCLCOdOCLCQdOCLCFdMYGdYDXdYDXdOCLCO00a320.5122300aLiberalism in neoliberal times :bdimensions, contradictions, limits /cedited by Alejandro Abraham-Hamanoiel, Des Freedman, Gholam Khiabany, Kate Nash, and Julian Petley. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c[2017].  aix, 281 pages ;c22 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.00tWhat is "Neo" about Neoliberalism? /rWill Davies --tHuman Rights, Markets, States, and Movements /rKate Nash --tHuman Rights : From Universalism to Pragmatism /rDavid Chandler --tHuman Rights and the Paradoxes of Liberalism /rCostas Douzinas --tRights and Power : Illiberal Constitutions of Latin America /rRoberto Gargarella --tRights : What are They Good For? /rNivedita Menon --tSexual Subalterns, Human Rights and the Limits of the Liberal Imaginary /rRatna Kapur --tHuman Rights and Its Inherent Liberal Relativism /rAbdullahi An-Naim --tWho is the Human in Human Rights? /rAnne Phillips --tThe European Court of Human Rights : Would Marx have Endorsed It? /r[author name] --tIntervention : Imperialism or Human Rights? /rRay Kiely --tThe Role of 'Best Examples' in Human Rights /rMonika Krause --tThe Modalities of Media Liberalism /rJulian Petley --tLiberalism and the Media /rRobert W.

In a world dominated by the visual, could contemporary resistances be auditory? This timely and important book from Goldsmiths Press highlights sound's invisible, disruptive, and affective qualities and asks whether the unseen nature of sound can support a political transformation. In Sonic Agency, Brandon LaBelle sets out to engage contemporary social and political crises by way of sonic thought and imagination. He divides sound's functions into four figures of resistance -- the invisible, the overheard, the itinerant, and the weak -- and argues for their role in creating alternative "unlikely publics" in which to foster mutuality and dissent. He highlights existing sonic cultures and social initiatives that utilize or deploy sound and listening to address conflict, and points to their work as models for a wider movement. He considers issues of disappearance and hidden culture, nonviolence and noise, creole poetics, and networked life, aiming to unsettle traditional notions of the "space of appearance" as the condition for political action and survival. By examining the experience of listening and being heard, LaBelle illuminates a path from the fringes toward hope, citizenship, and vibrancy. In a current climate that has left many feeling they have lost their voices, it may be sound itself that restores it to them. 0aSoundxPolitical aspects. 0aPublic spaces. 0aProtest movements. 0aGoldsmiths Press sonics series.  aBK  aMKEKKIb40c20171214lGOL01h1728  aMKEKKIb40c20171214lGOL01h1729  aDIANAb40c20180316lGOL01h155105016cam  2200385   4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002800072035002700100035002200127035001400149082002100163245008600184264005000270264001000320264006000330264001000390300002800400336002100428337002500449338002300474500002000497504005100517505339600568520039103964610003804355650003804393650005504431700003504486700002704521993000704548995003804555995003704593u218996SIRSI20171204152247.0171019t20182018enk||||||b||||001 0|eng|c  a9781906897710qhardback  a(Sirsi) i9781906897710  a(Sirsi) 000473974  a00047397400a384.55/4094122302aA future for public service television /cedited by Des Freedman and Vana Goblot. 1aLondon, England :bGoldsmiths Press,c[2018]. 4cÃ2018 2aCambridge, MA :bDistributed by The MIT Press,c[2018]. 4cÃ2018  aix, 357 pages ;c24 cm.  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.0 aThe long revolution / Des Freedman -- Reflection on a future for public service television / Mark Thompson -- Public service television and the crisis of content / Jon Thoday -- TV advertising for all seasons / Tess Alps -- Inventing public service media / Amanda D.

Considering sound and listening as foundational practices in themselves leads music into a thrilling new territory: stretched time, wilderness, video monitors, singing sculptures, weather, meditations, vibration and the interior resonance of objects, interspecies communications, instructional texts, silent actions, and performance art. 0Toop sought to document the originality and unfamiliarity of this work from his perspective as a practitioner and writer. The challenge was to do so without being drawn back into the domain of music while still acknowledging the vitality and hybridity of twentieth-century musics as they moved toward art galleries, museums, and site-specificity. Toop focused on practitioners, whose stories are as compelling as the theoretical and abstract implications of their works.0'Inflamed Invisible' collects more than four decades of David Toop's essays, reviews, interviews, and experimental texts, drawing us into the company of artists and their concerns, not forgetting the quieter, unsung voices. The volume is an offering, an exploration of strata of sound that are the crossing points of sensory, intellectual, and philosophical preoccupations, layers through which objects, thoughts and air itself come alive as the inflamed invisible. 7aArt.2lcgft 0aSound. 0aGoldsmiths Press sonics series.  aBK  aANISKAb40c20191104lGOL01h102202037cam  2200373   4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002100072020002400093035002700117035002200144040005400166082001600220100002900236245004700265264003900312264000900351300002400360336002600384337002800410338002700438500002000465504004100485520095100526600002001477600003501497650001601532650002001548650003401568650001601602993000701618995003801625u225920SIRSI20191113153800.0190401t20192019enk|||||||||||000 0aeng|d  a1912685191qhbk.  a9781912685196qhbk.  a(Sirsi) i9781912685196  a(Sirsi) 000498967  aYDXbengerdacYDXdUABdTOHdOCLCFdOCLCQdUKMGB04a823/.922231 aAshworth, Jenn,eauthor.10aNotes made while falling /cJenn Ashworth. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2019. 4c2019  a199 pages ;c21 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references.  a"Notes Made While Falling is both a genre-bending memoir and a cultural study of traumatized and sickened selves in fiction and film. It offers a fresh, visceral, and idiosyncratic perspective on creativity, spirituality, illness, and the limits of fiction itself. At its heart is a story of a disastrously traumatic childbirth, its long aftermath, and the out-of-time roots of both trauma and creativity in an extraordinary childhood. Moving from fairgrounds to Agatha Christie, from literary festivals to neuroscience and the Bible, from Chernobyl to King Lear, Ashworth takes us on a fantastic journey through familiar landscapes transformed through unexpected encounters and comic combinations.

In Photography After Capitalism, Benedict Burbridge makes the case for a radically expanded conception of photography, encompassing the types of labor too often obscured by black-boxed technologies, slick platform interfaces, and the compulsion to display lives to others. His lively and polemical analysis of today's vernacular photographic cultures shines new light on the hidden work of smartphone assembly teams, digital content moderators, Street View car drivers, Google "Scan-Ops", low-paid gallery interns, homeless participant photographers, and the photo-sharing masses --cSource other than Library of Congress. 0aPhotography. 0aPhotographyxPhilosophy. 0aPhotographyxEconomic aspects.02772cam  22003135i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002900072020002600101035002700127082002500154245007800179264003900257264001000296300004500306336002600351337002800377338002700405500002000432504005100452520171600503650003702219650005202256650005902308650002902367700002802396700003402424u313431SIRSI20210908142216.0210908t20212021enka     b    001 0 eng d  a9781912685639qpaperback  a1912685639qpaperback  a(Sirsi) i978191268563904a791.43/65299604122300aBlack film British cinema.nII /cedited by Clive Nwonka and Anamik Saha. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2021. 4cÃ2021  axix, 228 pages :billustrations ;c23 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.8 aBlack Film British Cinema II considers the politics of blackness in contemporary British cinema and visual practice. This second iteration of Black Film British Cinema, marking over 30 years since the ground-breaking ICA Documents 7 publication in 1988, continues this investigation by offering a crucial contemporary consideration of the textual, institutional, cultural and political shifts that have occurred from this period. It focuses on the practices, values and networks of collaborations that have shaped the development of black film culture and representation. But what is black British film? How do such films, however defined, produce meaning through visual culture, and what are the political, social and aesthetic motivations and effects? How are the new forms of black British film facilitating new modes of representation, authorship and exhibition? Explored in the context of film aesthetics, curatorship, exhibition and arts practice, and the politics of diversity policy, Black Film British Cinema II provides the platform for new scholars, thinkers and practitioners to coalesce on these central questions. It is explicitly interdisciplinary, operating at the intersections of film studies, media and communications, sociology, politics and cultural studies. Through a diverse range of perspectives and theoretical interventions that offer a combination of traditional chapters, long-form essays, shorter think pieces, and critical dialogues, Black Film British Cinema II is a comprehensive, sustained, wide ranging collection that offers new framework for understanding contemporary black film practices and the cultural and creative dimensions that shape the making of blackness and race. 0aBlack people in motion pictures. 0aMotion picturesxSocial aspectszGreat Britain. 0aMotion picture producers and directorszGreat Britain. 0aRace in motion pictures.1 aNwonka, Clive,eeditor.1 aSaha, Anamik,d1977-eeditor.02578cam  2200313 i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002500072020002200097035002700119082002100146100003500167245011900202264003900321300004100360336002100401337002500422338002300447490001800470500002000488504005100508520155300559650004402112650002502156650002002181650002702201830003602228u313434SIRSI20211013103551.0210308s2021    enka     b    001 0 eng d  a9781912685790 (hbk.)  a1912685795 (hbk.)  a(Sirsi) i978191268579004a781.648089962231 aBrar, Dhanveer Singh,eauthor.10aTeklife, Ghettoville, Eski :bthe sonic ecologies of Black music in the early 21st century /cDhanveer Singh Brar. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2021.  a171 pages :billustrations ;c23 cm.  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier1 aSonics series  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.8 aTeklife, Ghettoville, Eski' argues that Black electronic dance music produces sonic ecologies of Blackness that expose and reorder the contemporary racialization of the urban ecologies that can never be reduced simply to their geographical and racial context. Dhanveer Singh Brar makes the case for Black electronic dance music as the cutting-edge aesthetic project of the diaspora, which due to the music's class character makes it possible to reorganize life within the contemporary city. Closely analysing the Footwork scene in South and West Chicago, the Grime scene in East London, and the output of the South London producer Actress, Brar pays attention to the way each of these critically acclaimed musical projects experiments with aesthetic form through an experimentation of the social. Through explicitly theoretical means, Brar foregrounds the sonic specificity of 12" records, EPs, albums, radio broadcasts, and recorded performances to make the case that Footwork, Grime, and Actress dissolve racialized spatial constraints that are thought to surround Black social life. Pushing the critical debates concerning the phonic materiality of Blackness, undercommons, and aesthetic sociality in new directions, Brar rethinks these concepts through concrete examples of contemporary Black electronic dance music production that allows for a theorization of the way Footwork, Grime, and Actress have--through their experiments in Blackness--generated genuine alternatives to the functioning of the city under financialized racial capitalism. 0aElectronic dance musicxSocial aspects. 0aBlack peoplevMusic. 0aMusic and race. 0aMusicxSocial aspects. 0aGoldsmiths Press sonics series.02188nam  2200289 i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002800072020002500100035002700125082001800152100003000170245007100200264003900271264001000310300002600320336002600346337002800372338002700400500002000427504005100447520130000498650004401798650002401842650003201866u313435SIRSI20211013114544.0210518t20212021enk      b    001 0 eng d  a9781912685882qhardback  a1912685884qhardback  a(Sirsi) i978191268588204a809.387622231 aShaviro, Steven,eauthor.10aExtreme fabulations :bscience fictions of life /cSteven Shaviro. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2021. 4cÃ2021  ax, 181 pages ;c21 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.8 aWith this book, Steven Shaviro offers a thought experiment. He discusses a number of science fiction narratives: three novels, one novella, three short stories, and one musical concept album. Shaviro not only analyzes these works in detail but also uses them to ask questions about human, and more generally, biological life: about its stubborn insistence and yet fragility; about the possibilities and perils of seeking to control it; about the aesthetic and social dimensions of human existence, in relation to the nonhuman; and about the ethical value of human life under conditions of extreme oppression and devastation.0Shaviro pursues these questions through the medium of science fiction because this form of storytelling offers us a unique way of grappling with issues that deeply and unavoidably concern us but that are intractable to rational argumentation or to empirical verification. The future is unavoidably vague and multifarious; it stubbornly resists our efforts to know it in advance, let alone to guide it or circumscribe it. But science fiction takes up this very vagueness and indeterminacy and renders it into the form of a self-consciously fictional narrative. It gives us characters who experience, and respond to, the vagaries of unforeseeable change.--Page 4 of cover. 0aScience fictionxHistory and criticism. 0aLife in literature. 0aFuture, The, in literature.00789nam  22002538i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002500072035002700097082001400124100003000138245004200168264003900210300006400249336002100313337002500334338002300359500002000382504005100402650002900453650003100482650002200513u313437SIRSI20210817170118.0210809s2021    enk           000 0|eng|d  a9781912685820 (hbk.)  a(Sirsi) i978191268582004a770.12231 aDewdney, Andrew,eauthor.10aForget photography /cAndrew Dewdney. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2021.  axiii, 241 pages :billustrations (black and white) ;c24 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 0aPhotographyxPhilosophy. 0aInformation visualization. 0aVisual analytics.00857nam  22003017i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072016001800091020002600109035002700135082001400162100002900176245006100205250001700266264003900283264001000322300002200332336002100354337002500375338002300400500002000423650003500443650002700478650002400505700002600529u313787SIRSI20200825114127.0191125t20202001enk           000 0 eng d  aGBC0179182bnb7 a0197018332Uk  a9781912685462q(pbk.)  a(Sirsi) i978191268546204a707.22231 aGaver, William,eauthor.14aThe presence project /cBill Gaver ; editor: Giles Lane.  a2nd edition. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2020. 4cÃ2001  a1 volume ;c21 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress 0aDesignxResearchxMethodology. 0aDesign and technology. 0aProject management.1 aLane, Giles,eeditor.03745nam  2200397 i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031010001700072015001900089016001800108019002700126020003100153020002900184020002800213020003100241035002700272040016600299084002000465100003400485245010600519264003900625264001000664300004500674336002600719337002800745338002700773500002000800504005100820504005000871505095300921520128701874650006803161650005103229650006703280u313790SIRSI20211105105259.0170912t20182018enka     b    001 0 eng    a  2017039950  aGBB8572022bnb7 a0188060702Uk  a1002294873a1124897690  a9781906897758q(hardcover)  a1906897751q(hardcover )  a1912685434q(paperback)  a9781912685431q(paperback)  a(Sirsi) i9781906897758  aDLCbengerdacDLCdOCLCOdBDXdYDXdBTCTAdOCLCQdTOHdYDXdOCLCOdOCLCFdYUSdUEJdCHVBKdOCLCOdUKMGBdOCLCAdKSUdNJBdOCLCAdSFBdYDXITdOCLCQdCNGULdOCLCO  a941-095.612clc1 aJungnickel, Katrina,eauthor.10aBikes and bloomers :bVictorian women inventors and their extraordinary cycle wear /cKat Jungnickel. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2018. 4cÃ2018  axii, 323 pages :billustrations ;c24 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.  aIncludes bibliographical references and index0 aPart I : Introduction: Making, Wearing and Inventing Futures -- 1 : 'One Wants Nerves of Iron': Cycling in Victorian Britain. -- 2 : From the Victorian Lady to the Lady Cyclist -- 3 : Inventing Solutions to the 'Dress Problem' -- 4 : The 1890s Patenting Boom and the Cycle Craze -- 5 : Extraordinary Cycle Wear Patents -- 6 : Patent No. 17,145: Alice Bygrave and Her 'Bygrave Convertible Skirt' -- 7 : Patent No. 6794: Julia Gill and Her Convertible Cycling Semi- Skirt -- 8 : Patent No. 8766: Frances Henrietta Mèuller and Her Three-Piece Convertible Cycling Suit -- 9 : Patent No. 13,832: Mary and Sarah Pease and Their Convertible Cycling Skirt/ Cape -- 10 : Patent No. 9605: Mary Ward and Her Convertible 'Hyde Park Safety Skirt' -- Part III :Conclusion: The Politics of Patenting (or How to Change the World One Garment at a Time) -- British Cycle Wear Patents 1890-1900 (for new or improvements to women's skirts for the purposes of cycling).0 a'The bicycle in Victorian Britain is often celebrated as a vehicle of women's liberation. But much less is known about another critcal technology with which women forged new and mobile public lives - cycle wear. Despite its benefits, cycling was a material and ideological minefield for women. Conventional fashions were wildly inappropriate, with skirts catching in wheels and tangling pedals. Yet wearing more identifiable 'rational' cycle wear could elicit verbal and sometimes physical abuse from parts of society threatened by newly mobile women. In response, pioneering women not only imagined, made and wore radical new forms of cycle wear but also patented their inventive designs. The most remarkable of these were convertible costumes that enabled wearers to secretly switch ordinary clothing into cycle wear. This highly visual social history of women's cycle wear explores Victorian engineering, patent studies and radical feminist invention. Underpinned by three years of in-depth archival research and inventive practice, this new book by Kat Jungnickel brings to life in rich detail the lesser-known stories of six inventors and their unique contributions to cycling's past that continue to shape urban life for contemporary mobile women.' --cDetails from publisher. 0aWomen cyclistsxClothingzGreat BritainxHistoryy19th century. 0aCostumezGreat BritainxHistoryy19th century. 0aCyclingxSocial aspectszGreat BritainxHistoryy19th century.01005cam  22002893i 4500001000800000003000600008008004100014020001800055020004300073035002700116037003600143040002600179100002100205245007100226264008300297300002300380336002600403337002600429500002000455338003600475650004900511700002200560700001800582700002300600856008100623999001100704u316856SIRSI220502s2022    xx      o     000 0 eng d  a9781913380120  a9781913380113 (Proquest Ebook Central)  a(Sirsi) i9781913380113  a6940985bProquest Ebook Central  aCaONFJCerdacCaONFJC1 aDavies, William.10aUnprecedented?: How COVID-19 Revealed the Politics of Our Economy. 1a[Place of publication not identified] :bMIT Press :bGoldsmiths Press,c2022.  a1 online resource.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aGoldsmithsPress  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier 0aCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-xPolitical aspects.1 aDutta, Sahil Jai.1 aTaylor, Nick.1 aTazzioli, Martina.40uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/goldsmiths/detail.action?docID=6940985  aONLINE01129nam  22003257i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031010001700072020003100089035002700120035002400147040006600171042001400237082001600251100003000267245008800297264003800385264001000423300005300433336002600486337002800512338002700540490002100567500002000588504004900608650005000657651004000707651005600747u317191SIRSI20220628100900.0220613s2022    enkab    b    001 0 eng d  a  2022287369  a9781913380069q(hardcover)  a(Sirsi) i9781913380069  a(OCoLC)on1259586897  aYDXbengcYDXdBDXdUKMGBdOCLCOdOCLCFdMYGdOCLCOdDLCerda  alccopycat04a942.1642231 aHewison, Robert,eauthor.10aPassport to Peckham :bculture and creativity in a London village /cRobert Hewison 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Pressc2022. 4cÃ2022  aviii, 246 pages :billustrations, maps ;c24 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier0 aSpatial politics  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographic references and index. 0aCity and town lifezEnglandzLondonxHistory. 0aPeckham (London, England)xHistory. 0aPeckham (London, England)xSocial life and customs.02460cam  22003495i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031010001700072015001900089016001800108020001500126020001800141035002700159035002400186040005900210082000800269100002800277245003300305264003700338264001000375300002300385336002600408337002800434338002700462500002000489504003900509520138600548600006001934610005701994610005902051u317192SIRSI20220628163006.0220628s2022    xx       b    000 0 eng d  a  2022286317  aGBC1K92662bnb7 a0204255862Uk  a1913380009  a9781913380007  a(Sirsi) i9781913380007  a(OCoLC)on1252762465  aYDXbengcYDXerdadBDXdERASAdUKMGBdOCLCFdMYGdDLC04a3061 aGere, Charlie,eauthor.10aWorld's end /cCharlie Gere. 1aLondonbGoldsmiths Press,c2022. 4cÃ2022  a193 pages ;c21 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographic references.8 aCharlie Gere's account of growing up in the World's End area of West London during the Cold War combines local history, cultural history, memoir, and a strong sense of the apocalyptic. Once a rundown part of Chelsea at the wrong end of the King's Road, the World's End has long been a place for bohemian writers and artists, including Turner, Whistler, Beckett, Bacon, and Bacon's muse Henrietta Moraes, all of whom evinced an appropriate apocalyptic sensibility. After World War II, in which the area suffered severe bombing, it became a center of the counterculture that emerged from what Jeff Nuttall called ?Bomb Culture, ? formed by the threat of nuclear annihilation.0The famous boutique Granny Takes a Trip opened there in 1966, joined later on by Hung On You, Puss Weber's Flying Dragon Tea Room, and the commune Gandalf's Garden. The area also featured trepanning aristocrats and pet lions, among other eccentricities. In the 1970s, the World's End was the center of punk rock. Gere's parents arrived as part of a wave of gentrification, and Gere, born and brought up there, witnessed its social and cultural evolution. As an adolescent, he was traumatized by the prospect of nuclear war. He has lived long enough to see the World's End now bearing the marks of out-of-control neoliberalism and its grotesque accompanying inequality. But this too shall pass as worlds end.10aGere, Charlie.1https://isni.org/isni/0000000039498599.20aWorlds End (London, England)xHistoryy20th century.20aWorlds End (London, England)xSocial life and customs.02717cam  2200349 i 4500001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072020002800091020002500119035002700144035006000171035002400231035002900255040006100284100002900345245008900374264003900463300002800502336002600530337002800556338002700584490003500611500002000646520155900666650003502225650002002260650001702280650003402297650003602331u317195SIRSI20211122154240.0210906s2021    enk           000 0 eng d  aGBC1F38712bnb  a9781912685905qhardback  a1912685906qhardback  a(Sirsi) i9781912685905  a(OCoLC)1272889413z(OCoLC)1237806629z(OCoLC)1266221635  a(OCoLC)on1272889413  a(UK-BtUSL)99881129402461  aUKMGBbengerdacUKMGBdYDXdBDXdERASAdOCLCOdUK-BtUSL1 aVallelly, Neil,eauthor.10aFutilitarianism :bneoliberalism and the production of uselessness /cNeil Vallelly. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2021.  axi, 234 pages ;c21 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier0 aGoldsmiths Press / PERC Papers  aGoldsmithsPress  aIf maximising utility leads to the greatest happiness of the greatest number of people, as utilitarianism has always proposed, then why is it that as many of us currently maximize our utility?by working endlessly, undertaking further education and training, relentlessly marketing and selling ourselves?we are met with the steady worsening of collective social and economic conditions? In Futilitarianism, social and political theorist Neil Vallelly eloquently tells the story of how neoliberalism transformed the relationship between utility maximisation and the common good.0Drawing on a vast array of contemporary examples, from self-help literature and marketing jargon to political speeches and governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, Vallelly coins several terms?including ?the futilitarian condition, ? ?homo futilitus, ? and ?semio-futility??to demonstrate that in the neoliberal decades, the practice of utility maximization traps us in useless and repetitive behaviors that foreclose the possibility of collective happiness.0This urgent and provocative book chimes with the mood of the time by at once mapping the historical relationship between utilitarianism and capitalism, developing an original framework for understanding neoliberalism, and recounting the lived experience of uselessness in the early twenty-first century. At a time of epoch-defining disasters, from climate emergencies to deadly pandemics, countering the futility of neoliberal existence is essential to building an egalitarian, sustainable, and hopeful future. 0aNeoliberalismxSocial aspects. 0aUtilitarianism. 0aCommon good. 0aSocial historyy21st century. 0aEconomic historyy21st century.02493cam  2200349 i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031010001700072020002600089020002900115035002400144040008500168042001400253043001200267082001600279100002700295245010000322264003900422300005000461336002600511336003300537336004000570337002800610338002700638500002000665504004100685520128100726650005202007650004802059650003602107u321455SIRSI20220720143820.0210825s2020    enkab    b    000 0 eng d  a  2021287574  a1912685663qpaperback  a9781912685660qpaperback  a(OCoLC)on1145283354  aYDXbengerdacYDXdBDXdOCLCQdTOHdOCLCOdOCLCFdERASAdUKOBUdYDXITdGZNdDLC  alccopycat  ae------04a361.2/62231 aClayton, Sue,eauthor.14aThe new internationalists :bactivist volunteers in the European refugee crisis /cSue Clayton. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2020.  axxi, 409 pages :billustrations, map ;c23 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  astill imagebsti2rdacontent  acartographic imagebcri2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references.  a"In The New Internationalists, Sue Clayton tells the story of the largest civic mobilization since the Second World War, when volunteers--many young and untrained--took on unimaginable responsibilities and saved thousands of lives. During the European refugee crisis of 2015-2020, they witnessed first hand the catastrophic failure of established NGOs, and the indifference--and frequently, the open hostility--of the EU and national governments. Many faced state hostility themselves. Their accounts show how activist volunteers have shaped today's European humanitarian agenda, and provide a powerful critique of failures of current policy. With The New Internationalists, Clayton offers a contemporary history and critical contextualization of this powerful new force. Mapping key flashpoint locations and curating unique first hand testimonies, she explores how during the crisis, when almost two million people reached Europe by deadly sea-crossings, more than 100,000 citizens came together in new grassroots social formations to rescue, support, and welcome them. She provides a unique and multifaceted account, based on evidence and testimonies, and situates it within current debates on humanitarianism and contemporary social and solidarity movements." --Amazon.com. 0aHumanitarian aid workerszEuropey21st century. 0aHuman rights workerszEuropey21st century. 0aRefugeeszEuropey21st century.00808nam  22002658i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072016001800091020002800109082001400137100002800151245009400179264003900273300002900312336002100341337002500362338002300387490003300410500002000443650004100463650001900504650001900523u322430SIRSI20230728100731.0220905s2022    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC2G38402bnb7 a0207457612Uk  a9781913380526qhardback04a306.22231 aJensen, Jacob,eauthor.14aThe marketizers :bpublic choice and the origins of the neoliberal order /cJacob Jensen. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2022.  aviii, 282 pages;c21 cm.  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier0 aGoldsmiths Press/PERC papers  aGoldsmithsPress 0aPolitical sciencexEconomic aspects. 0aSocial choice. 0aNeoliberalism.01494nam  2200469 i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031010001500072015001900087016001800106020001800124020001500142035002400157035002500181040007200206041001300278042001400291082001500305100004500320240002500365245009900390264003900489264001000528300002900538336002600567337002800593338002700621490001800648500002000666500002000686500008000706500003200786650003500818650001700853650002200870650001900892700003400911700003000945700003000975830001901005u322432SIRSI20230103142619.0221209t20222022enk           001 0 eng d  a2022288937  aGBC2C29632bnb7 a0206774032Uk  a9781913380540  a1913380548  a(OCoLC)on1290378138  a(UK-CovUW).b38773120  aYDXbengcYDXerdadBDXdUKMGBdOCLCFdTOHdSFRdCDXdUABdNYPdDLC1 aenghfre  alccopycat04a320.012231 aGlissant, âEdouard,d1928-2011,eauthor.10aManifestes.lEnglish10aManifestos /câEdouard Glissant, Patrick Chamoiseau ; translated by Betsy Wing and Matt Reeck. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2022. 4cÃ2022  aviii, 77 pages ;c24 cm.  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier1 aPlanetarities  aIncludes index.  aGoldsmithsPress  aOriginally published as Manifestes by Editions La Dâecouverte, Paris, 2021.  aTranslated from the French. 0aPolitical sciencexPhilosophy. 0aNationalism. 0aMulticulturalism. 0aGlobalization.1 aChamoiseau, Patrick,eauthor.1 aWing, Betsy,etranslator.1 aReeck, Matt,etranslator. 0aPlanetarities.02404nam  22003138i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014007000300031008004100034015001900075016001800094020002800112035001800140040003100158082001400189100003400203245004900237264003900286300002300325336002100348337002500369338002300394500150400417500002001921650004401941650005101985650003502036650001902071u323543SIRSI20230418170115.0t|230413s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC3759692bnb7 a0210263862Uk  a9781913380649qhardback  a(Uk)021026386  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a177.32231 aCubitt, Sean,d1953-eauthor.10aTruth :baesthetic politics 1/cSean Cubitt. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a248 pages ;c21 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aThe problem with Neo-Nazis is not that they don't trust the media but that they trust them too much. White supremacists are absolutely convinced by their supremacy. They distrust technologies and climate change as much as the global poor because, as white Europeans, they believe they are exempt from exploitation. This book argues that the only truths possible in the 21st century are mobile, inventive practices involving everything European models of communication exclude: technologies, nature, and leftover humanity. Tracing histories of their separation, Truth analyzes the struggle between the new dominance of information systems and the sensory worlds it excludes, not least the ancestral wisdom that the West has imprisoned in its technologies. The emergent cybernetics of the 1940s has become the dominant ideology of the 21st century. Truth opposes its division of the world between subjects and objects, signals and noise, emphasizing that there can be no return to some primal Eden of unfettered exchange. Instead, these divisions, which have fundamentally reorganized the commodity form that they inherited, are the historical conditions we must confront. Drawing on a wide range of aesthetic practices, from literature, film, art, music, workplace media, scientific instruments, and animal displays, Truth seeks out ways to create a new commons and a new politics grounded in aesthetic properties of creativity, senses and perception that can no longer be restricted to humans alone.  aGoldsmithsPress 0aTruthfulness and falsehoodvPhilosophy. 0aTruthfulness and falsehoodxPolitical aspects. 0aAestheticsxPolitical aspects. 0aHuman ecology.00904nam  22002778i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072016001800091020002400109035001800133040003100151082001700182100002700199245011000226264003900336300002300375336002100398337002500419338002300444500002000467600007000487650003300557700003600590u323544SIRSI20230307170204.0230303s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC3506182bnb7 a0209847182Uk  a9781913380564qhbk.  a(Uk)020984718  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a384.54092231 aDolbear, Sam,eauthor.10aDissonant waves :bErnst Schoen and experimental sound in the 20th century /cSam Dolbear, Esther Leslie. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a315 pages ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress10aSchoen, Ernst,d1894-19601https://isni.org/isni/0000000112200315 0aRadio broadcastingxHistory.1 aLeslie, Esther,d1964-eauthor.00742nam  22002658i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014007000300031008004100034015001900075016001800094020002900112035001800141040003100159082001500190245007100205264003900276300002300315336002100338337002500359338002300384500002000407650001400427700003500441u323545SIRSI20230822170201.0t|230804s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC3G03712bnb7 a0211852052Uk  a9781913380878qpaperback  a(Uk)021185205  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a305.4222300aThis is not a feminism textbook /cedited by Catherine Rottenberg. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a160 pages ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress 0aFeminism.1 aRottenberg, Catherine,eauthor00875nam  22002778i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014007000300031008004100034015001900075016001800094020003700112035001800149040003100167082001500198100003300213245011500246264003900361300002300400336002100423337002500444338002300469500002000492650003400512650005100546u324258SIRSI20230815170226.0t|230804s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC3F50152bnb7 a0211764992Uk  a9781913380700qpaperbackc¹32.00  a(Uk)021176499  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a418.022231 aRobert-Foley, Lily,eauthor.10aExperimental translation :bthe work of translation in the age of algorithmic production /cLily Robert-Foley. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a248 pages ;c21 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress 0aTranslating and interpreting. 0aTranslating and interpretingxData processing.01561nam  22001938i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002900072082001800101100003300119245011700152264003900269300002300308500095500331500002001286650002601306700003501332u324642SIRSI20230822170201.0230807s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  a9781913380748qpaperback04a302.230822231 aHristova, Elena D.,eauthor.14aThe ghost reader :brecovering women's contributions to media studies /cElena D.

The Ghost Reader: Recovering Women's Contributions to Media Studies offers a fresh perspective on the intellectual history of the field of media studies, a broad scholarly field that encompasses the interdisciplinary and overlapping fields of media studies, cultural studies, and communication studies. By recovering the work of the diverse group of women who labored at the margins of media studies as it took shape during the formative years of communication research between the 1930s and the 1950s, and providing scholarly contexts for this work, The Ghost Reader shows that “intersectional considerations” were key modes of engagement for intellectuals, academics, and activists who happened to be women. They did so decades before feminist perspectives were reintegrated into histories of the field.  aGoldsmithsPress 0aMass media and women.1 aDorsten, Aimee-Marie,eauthor.01959cam  2200229Ii 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031082001800072100005100090245009500141264003900236300005900275490002100334500098000355500002001335504005101355650009801406650009601504651004101600651008801641u324643SIRSI20230216132919.0220224s2022    enka     b    001 0 eng d04a728.3 THO2231 aThoburn, Nicholas,d1970-eauthor.n200210503610aBrutalism as found :bhousing, form, and crisis at Robin Hood Gardens /cNicholas Thoburn. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2022.  a260 pages :billustrations (black and white) ;c23 cm.0 aSpatial politics  aThe Robin Hood Gardens public-housing estate in East London, completed in 1972, was designed by Alison and Peter Smithson as an ethical and aesthetic encounter with the flux and crises of the social world. Now demolished by the forces of speculative development, this Brutalist estate has been the subject of much dispute. But the clichâed terms of debate—a “concrete monstrosity” or a “modernist masterpiece”—have marginalized the estate's residents and obscured its architectural originality. Recovering the social in the architectural, this book centers the estate's lived experience of a multiracial working class, not to displace the architecture's sensory qualities of matter and form, but to radicalize them for our present.  Immersed in the materials, atmospheres, social forms and afterlives of this experimental estate, Robin Hood Gardens is reconstructed here as a socio-architectural expression of our times out of joint.  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 0aBrutalism (Architecture)zEnglandzLondon.0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85017364 7aBrutalism (Architecture)2fast0(OCoLC)fst008398930http://id.worldcat.org/fast/fst00839893 0aRobin Hood Gardens (London, England) 7aEnglandzLondon.2fast0(OCoLC)fst012042710http://id.worldcat.org/fast/fst0120427102541nam  22002898i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072016001800091020002900109035001800138040003100156082001900187245007100206264003900277300002300316336002100339337002500360338002300385500168600408500002002094650004402114700003102158700003402189700002802223u324645SIRSI20230314170153.0230307s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC3552192bnb7 a0209908062Uk  a9781913380427qpaperback  a(Uk)020990806  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a300.72 HOW22310aHow to do social research with /cRebecca Coleman, Kat Jungnickel. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a224 pages ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aA guide to the doing of critical and creative research with a range of unusual means to apprise places and build ethical relationships.  This catalogue of methods draws on the wealth of cutting-edge critical and creative social research from the Goldsmiths Sociology Department to offer an engaged guide to doing research with a range of unexpected relations. The collection focuses on multiple assemblages of objects, media, materials, practices, relations, devices, and atmospheres, spanning methods and topics involving food to activism, knitting to ghosts, theater to documents, collaging to corridors. Through hands-on discussions of the practicalities, ethics, and politics of doing social research, the catalogue showcases a wide range of examples of what methods might mean and do. It builds a case for an understanding of contemporary social research as interdisciplinary, responsive, dynamic, vital, and urgent in studying and shaping social worlds.  Goldsmiths Sociology Department is internationally recognized as being at the forefront of some of the most daring, original and unconventional methodological innovation. Their unbounded approach to social research offers textured yet clear paths through the problems and issues before us, as contributors present the methodological puzzles they have become knotted with. The short and imaginative case studies offer new ways of teaching, learning, and doing lively and rigorous research. This is research as close-up observations, infrastructural interventions and imaginative play.

In the new millennium, science fiction has moved from the margins to the mainstream. At the same time, it has undergone massive transformations. No longer can it be derided as indigestible technobabble or escapist trash or a white mans playground not that it ever really was. Sf is rich and diverse, serious, and fun. A vital bridge between technoscience and culture, it is an early warning system, a method for imagining differently, and a way of experiencing our increasingly science-fictional world. It is the vernacular of the 21st century. This Is Not A Science Fiction Textbook brings together leading sf scholars, including some of the most exciting new critical voices, to introduce the genre for the general reader. Its first part outlines some key ideas used to think about sf, such as Estrangement, Extrapolation, and Alterity. Its second part maps some of the genres global history, from the Enlightenment and European colonialism to Indigenous and African Futurisms. Its third part surveys sf at the turn of the 2020s, organised by concepts, movements and new academic disciplines, from Afrofuturism and Animal Studies to Queer Theory and the Weird and each chapter, whether it is on Climate Fiction or Neurodiversity, is accompanied by an introduction to a major contemporary novel and film.  aGoldsmithsPress 0aScience fictionxHistory and criticism. 0aScience fiction filmsxHistory and criticism.1 aBould, Mark,eeditor1 aShaviro, Steven,eeditor00984nam  22003018i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014007000300031008004100034015001900075016001800094020003700112035001800149040003100167082002400198100001900222245008900241264003900330300002300369336002100392337002500413338002300438500002000461650005900481650003200540650005100572651005900623u325462SIRSI20230822170201.0t|230804s2023    enk           000 0 eng|d  aGBC3G03702bnb7 a0211852042Uk  a9781913380762qpaperbackc¹36.00  a(Uk)021185204  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a362.870982090472231 aCieplak, Piotr10aFamiliar faces :bphotography, memory, and Argentina's disappeared /cPiotr Cieplak. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a192 pages ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress 0aDisappeared personszArgentinaxHistoryy20th century. 0aDisappeared persons in art. 0aPhotographyzArgentinaxHistoryy20th century. 0aArgentinaxHistoryyDirty War, 1976-1983xPhotography.02258nam  2200181   45 0001000800000003000600008008004100014020002800055100002900083245007900112260003900191300004100230500002000271520170500291650002601996650002802022650002602050u325463SIRSI240730n                      000 0 eng u  a9781913380663qhardback1 aMusgrave, George,d1986-14aThe England no one cares about :blyrics from suburbia /cGeorge Musgrave.  aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2024.  a214 pages :billustrations ;c24 cm.  aGoldsmithsPress  aThere are many different Englands. From the much-romanticized rolling countryside, to the cosmopolitanism of the inner cities (embraced by some as progressive, multicultural enlightenment and derided by others as the playground of a self-righteous metropolitan elite), or the disparagingly named "left behind" communities which, post-Brexit, have so interested political parties and pundits, demographers and statisticians.  But there is also an England no one cares about. The England of semi-detached houses and clean driveways for multiple cars devotedly washed on Sundays, of "twitching curtains" and Laura Ashley sofas; of cul-de-sacs to nowhere and exaggerated accents; of late night drives to petrol stations on A roads, fake IDs tested in Harvesters, and faded tracksuits and over-gelled hair in Toby Carverys; of questionable hash from a "mate of a mate" and two-litre bottles of White Lightning from Budgens consumed in a kids playground. Much derided. Unglamorous, ordinary; cultural vacuity and small "c" conservatism. A hodgepodge. An—apparently—middling, middle-of-the-road middle-England of middle-class middle-mindedness.  Part poetry anthology, part academic study into placemaking, and part autoethnography, The England No One Cares About innovatively brings together academic discussions of the ethnographic potential of lyrics, scholastic representations of suburbia, and thematic analysis to explore how rap music can illuminate the experiences of young men growing up in suburbia. This takes place by exploring the author's own annotated lyrics from his career as a musician known as Context where he was referred to by the BBC as "Middle England's Poet Laureate." 0aRap (Music)zEngland. 0aSuburban lifezEngland. 0aSuburban life in art.02026nam  2200157   45 0001000800000003000600008008004100014020002800055100001800083245007900101260003900180300004500219500002000264520156000284650002401844u325464SIRSI240730n                      000 0 eng u  a9781915983022qhardback1 aDoing, Karel.10aRuins and resilience /cthe longevity of experimental film /cKarel Doing.  aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2024.  axi, 188 pages :billustrations ;c24 cm.  aGoldsmithsPress  aKarel Doing is an experimental filmmaker and researcher who has worked across the globe with fellow artists and filmmakers, creating a body of work that is difficult to pinpoint with a simple catchphrase. In Ruins and Resilience he weaves autobiographical elements and critical reviews together with his wide ranging interdisciplinary approach, reflecting on his own practice by positioning key works within the context of a vibrant experimental film scene in Europe, North and South America, and Asia. Doing demonstrates how experimental filmmakers have continued to renew their practice despite the almost total demise of analog motion picture film and the constant neglect of this art form by institutions and critics. Written in a fluent and accessible style, the book looks into the connections between the work of groundbreaking artists within the field and subjects such as transgression, improvisation, collectivity, materiality, phenomenology, and perception. Specifically, intersections with music and sound are investigated, appealing to the idea of the cross-modal brain, the ability to perceive sounds and images in an integrated way. Instead of looking again at the "golden era" of experimental film, the book starts in the 1980s, showing how this art form has never ceased to surprise and inspire. The author's hands-on engagement with the medium is formational for his more theoretical approach and writing, making the book a highly original contribution in the field that is informative and inspiring for academic and practitioners alike. 0aExperimental films.00877nam  22002898i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031015001900072016001800091020003700109035001800146040003100164082001500195100003100210245010700241264003900348300002300387336002100410337002500431338002300456500002000479650001400499650002400513650002100537710002900558u325843SIRSI20221206170148.0221129s2023    enk           000 0|eng|d  aGBC2L97872bnb7 a0208327142Uk  a9781913380458qpaperbackc¹25.00  a(Uk)020832714  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSerda04a305.422231 aMcRobbie, Angela,eauthor.10aFeminism, young women, and cultural studies :bBirmingham essays from 1975 onwards /cAngela McRobbie. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2023.  a248 pages ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress 0aFeminism. 0aFeminist criticism. 0aGender identity.2 aUniversity of Birmingham01404nam  2200205   45 0001000800000003000600008008004100014020002900055100003200084245010900116260003900225300002400264490001800288500002000306520075400326650002401080650004301104650002401147650002701171u327079SIRSI250225n                      000 0 eng u  a9781913380397qpaperback1 aVergáes, Franðcoise,d1952-10aMaking the world clean :bwasted lives, wasted environment, and racial capitalism /cFranðcoise Vergáes.  aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2024.  a167 pages ;c22 cm.0 aPlanetarities  aGoldsmithsPress  aIn Making the World Clean: Wasted Lives, Wasted Environment, and Racial Capitalism, Franðcoise Vergáes examines the racial and gendered politics of wasting lands, bodies, and resources and the organized deprivation of clean water, shelter, and access to health services—in other words, the structural denial, along racial lines, of vital needs. Through 38 short sections, she looks at the social relations that have made cleaning into drudgery and into a racialized, gendered, poorly paid job that is nevertheless necessary for any society to function. She concludes with the proposition of a feminist, decolonial, antiracist, anti-patriarchal, and anti-capitalist politics of cleaning. Or, simply put, of “decolonial cleaning.” 0aCleaning personnel. 0aCleaning personnelxSocial conditions. 0aSanitation workers. 0aWomen foreign workers.03113cam  2200361 i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002500072020002800097035002200125035002400147035003000171040007700201050001600278100003400294245005900328264003900387264001000426300002300436336002600459337002800485338002700513490001800540500002000558504009900578505026900677520165600946650003902602650003602641650003902677830003502716u327086SIRSI20241007105939.0230805t20242024enk      bk   001 0 eng d  a1913380165qhardback  a9781913380168qhardback  a(OCoLC)1392164611  a(OCoLC)on1392164611  a(UK-BtUSL)991239666302461  aYDXbengerdacYDXdQGQdYDXdOCLCOdNJRdPSCdOCLCOdAUMdNYPdUK-BtUSL04aML 3780 REK1 aRekret, Paul,d1978-eauthor.10aTake this hammer :bwork, song, crisis /cPaul Rekret. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2024. 4cÃ2024  a199 pages ;c24 cm  atextbtxt2rdacontent  aunmediatedbn2rdamedia  avolumebnc2rdacarrier1 aSonics series  aGoldsmithsPress  aIncludes bibliographical references (pages [159]-182), discography (pages 183-185), and index.0 aA collective and obligatory rhythm -- Melodies wander around as ghosts: playlist as cultural form -- This is more than rap: labour, leisure, and trap -- So much wilder than me: the new 'world music' -- Machine memory triumphs in multiplicity: nature and technique.  a"The emergence of the popular music industry in the early twentieth century not only drove a wedge between music production and consumption, it also underscored a wider separation of labor from leisure and of the workplace from the domestic sphere. These were changes characteristic of an industrial society where pleasure was to be sought outside of work, but these categories have grown increasingly porous today. As the working day extends into the home or becomes indistinguishable from leisure time, so the role and meaning of music in everyday life changes too. In arguing that the experience of popular music is partly conditioned by its segregation from work and its restriction to the time and space of leisure--the evening, the weekend, the dancehall--Take This Hammer shows how changes to work as it grows increasingly precarious, part-time, and temporary in recent decades, are related to transformations in popular music. Connecting contemporary changes in work and the economy to tendencies in popular music, Take This Hammer shows how song-form has both reflected developments in contemporary capitalism while also intimating a horizon beyond it. From online streaming and the extension of the working day to gentrification, unemployment and the emergence of trap rap, from ecological crisis and field recording to automation and trends in dance music, by exploring the intersections of work and song in the current era, not only do we gain a new understanding of contemporary musical culture, we also see how music might gesture towards a horizon beyond the alienating experience of work in capitalism itself"--cProvided by publisher. 0aWork songsxHistory and criticism. 0aMusicxSocial aspectsxHistory. 0aMusicxPolitical aspectsxHistory. 0aGoldsmiths Press sonics series01017nam  2200193   45 0001000800000003000600008008004100014020002900055100003000084245012400114260003900238300007000277500002000347520010800367520027500475650002400750650002500774650002400799u327087SIRSI250226n                      000 0 eng u  a9781915983046qpaperback1 aO'Sullivan, Simon,d1967-10aFrom magic and myth-work to care and repair :bessays on the fiction of the self and other devices /cSimon O'Sullivan.  aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2024.  ax, 221 pages, 4 pages of plates :bcolour illustrations ;c23 cm.  aGoldsmithsPress  aThe practices of magic and contemporary myth-making in relation to landscape, performance, and writing.  aFrom Magic and Myth-Work to Care and Repair is a two-part book bringing together fourteen essays broadly concerned with the 'fiction of the self' and with practices and explorations beyond that fiction.

How do we build a voice, instead of giving a voice to something or someone, or being given a voice? Can we imagine the voices we make in the form of a skin, a multi-sensory interface that behaves as both boundary and contact? What does such a voice capacitate in times of crises and uncertainties? In 'Building a Voice', Zeynep Bulut explores these questions. She examines multi-sensory and collective forms of voice making in experimental music, sound, and media art in conversation with the use of voice in creative interventions for environmental crisis, experiences of voice hearing, and digital technologies of artificial and tactile speech. 0aMusicxPhilosophy and aesthetics.01543nam  2200289 i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020003500072040004100107050002100148082001600169100003500185245010200220264003900322300002300361336002100384337002500405338002300430500002000453504005100473520058600524650003301110650006301143650002601206700002101232u328263SIRSI20250828221748.0250228s2025    enk    f b    001 0 eng|d  a9781915983299 (hbk.) :c¹27.00  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSdStDuBDSZerda 4aJA74.5b.A5 202504a320.0192231 aAnderson, Ben,d1972-eauthor.14aThe politics of feeling :bpopulism, progressivism, liberalism /cBen Anderson and Anna J.

If the second half of the 20th century saw the defeat and exhaustion of fascism and socialism, what remained of ideological certainty in neoliberal democracies such as the UK and the US ran aground in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. This volume provides a diagnostic of how the uncertainties of the post-2008 period have transformed the political arena and made the question of how people feel central to the formation of political affiliations and divisions. 0aEmotionsxPolitical aspects. 0aRight and left (Political science)xPsychological aspects. 0aPolitical psychology.1 aSecor, Anna Jean00995nam  22002778i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020003500072040004100107050002500148082001500173100003300188245009000221264003900311300004000350336002100390336002800411337002500439338002300464500002000487520012600507650002900633650002900662650002600691u328264SIRSI20250626005531.0250624s2025    enka   f      000 0|eng|d  a9781915983374 (hbk.) :c¹23.00  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSdStDuBDSZerda 4aQA76.76.C68bG7 202504a005.882231 aGray, Chris Hables,eauthor.10aVirus is a language :bAI, QAnon, COVID-19 and the new abnormal /cChris Hables Gray. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2025.  a240 pages :billustrations ;c23 cm  atext2rdacontent  astill image2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress8 aOn how Generative AI and cults such as QAnon spread digitally and culturally follow the same rules as biological viruses. 0aArtificial intelligence. 0aQAnon conspiracy theory. 0aVirusesvTerminology.01687nam  22002778i 45 0001000800000003000600008005001700014008004100031020002800072040004100100050002100141082001200162100003400174245004700208264003900255300002300294336002100317337002500338338002300363500002000386520089500406650001201301650004301313650003501356650001801391u329678SIRSI20250304215708.0250225s2025    enk           000 0 eng|d  a9781915983305qhardback  aStDuBDSbengcStDuBDSdStDuBDSZerda 4aBJ1012b.C8 202504a1702231 aCubitt, Sean,d1953-eauthor.10aGood :baesthetic politics /cSean Cubitt. 1aLondon :bGoldsmiths Press,c2025.  a264 pages ;c21 cm  atext2rdacontent  aunmediated2rdamedia  avolume2rdacarrier  aGoldsmithsPress8 a'Good' is an ecocritical enquiry into ethical and political dimensions of aesthetics. Following Aristotle's lead, it starts with ethics as the question concerning what is the good life for me, moving on to politics as the good life for us. Like Aristotle, between ethics and politics it inserts the question of the good life for you and me - the question of love. In the end - which is where we all live today - it goes beyond Aristotle's human-centred approach, insisting that the good life cannot be thought or lived without including technologies and ecologies. A truly cosmopolitan politics is a politics of the cosmos. Packed with examples from banking apps to cave art, economic manifestos to cookery, passing through music, painting, poetry, and film, this book evokes critical traditions from across the world to present an accessible case for decolonial and ecocritical aesthetics. 0aEthics. 0aAestheticsxMoral and ethical aspects. 0aAestheticsxPolitical aspects. 0aEcocriticism.
