Last week saw two campaigns I support have their nights of fame. On Wednesday I was supporting the Get Your Belly Out campaign for a Twitter Takeover to raise awareness for Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis UK.

Should Cinema Stop Illegal Downloads? A Response
Jonny Bark posted yesterday his thoughts on cinema, and film piracy. And I must say, I have a few thoughts myself.

Santander Photo Exhibition, 2 years on
It’s been two years since the #Picbod class took flight opened the first Santander Photo Festival. I have had chance to reflect on this collaboration recently and think about how learning communities are extremely powerful and can truly build friendships. I still speak to Charo often about possible collaborations and projects, albeit it is very…
