Nursery Workers Bite Back! In 1984, over 150 nursery workers in the London Borough of Islington went on strike for 15 weeks, demanding a better ratio of staff to children in the council-run nurseries.

Made by a group of present-day childcare workers, parents, carers and campaigners, Nursery Workers Bite Back explores what we can learn from the nursery workers' strike to help us improve the childcare system today.

The Sound Of Criticism
Part two of The Sound of Criticism features two further radio programmes developed as part of a London College of Communication, UAL, MA Sound Arts writing workshop in which the participants engaged in the role of writing in the production of sound arts/sonic discourse. They explored the idea of sound art reviews/sound art criticism and the (written) engagement with performances and exhibitions not as new interpretation but as a materialisation though sonic conversation of new and diverse possibilities. Today: Programme 3. In this episode, the artists explore the sonic interpretation of individual experiences of acoustic energy in space. The piece takes the listener on an immersive, cross-cultural, dynamic and at times, political journey. Assembled through an intuitive, aesthetic, and improvisational ear, it invites nuance, experimentation and the misuse of what might otherwise serve as a medium for convention. Its meaning perhaps encompasses chaos and activity as much as serenity and stillness. It may even require the complete abandonment of expectation and desire, inviting the listener to see each moment as temporary yet eternal - something that exists only here and now. Bound to be just as it is, whether oppressive or soothing, static or erupting with change. Artists: Joseph Browning, Yanjia Dong, Rikuto Fujimoto, Ioustini Koutsogianni and Alvenn Soroko.
