Just a quick heads up on a couple of recent articles…
I’ve written my first blog post for the Duckie website as Dr Duckie – I’ll be posting occasional pieces there reporting back on my PhD research in a more casual, less footnoted way than academic protocols allow. This first dispatch is a report on Duckie in Sitges (above), when the company took a couple of hundred gays to the Spanish beach for fun in the sun. For all the ethnographic tittle-tattle, read the full article here.
And I did a short profile of the groundbreaking theatre company Forest Fringe for the Guardian Guide’s recent special issue on DIY culture. To find out more about the company’s view of DIY as “an ideology rather than an aesthetic”, read the full article here – and it’s well worth checking out the whole issue online too.
