Now wash your hands
Examining the urban arts in the UK, in their paint and fibre-based alternatives, this article aims to account for the differences in contemporary dealings with graffiti and yarn-bombing (kniffiti). The intersectional complications of gender, race, age and class, as they have come to bear on the visual arts, as well as the historical power structures that have determined the classification of crime, and of art, are offered as possible rationales f…
Forensic Photography, Film Noir, and Fellig
The transfer of pictorial styles between image practices is examined here through the work of early police photographers, the cinematic style of film noir, and the street images of Arthur Fellig (Weegee). Paradoxically, the moral ambiguity depicted in the former two practices echoes that suggested by Weegee's working method and our own status as viewers; death is presented as a product for our consumption. These apparently distinct practices tres…
A Study of the Rights of Cross-dressers in the UK
This paper will examine legally sanctioned discrimination through the comparative positions of transsexual people and cross-dressers at work in the UK. Transsexual people, it will be argued, enjoy protection through a European Directive transposed into the Sex Discrimination Act 1975; 1986, the more recent Gender Recognition Act 2004 and UK case law. Cross-dressers, conversely, can expect little legal protection through statutory provision and ar…

This paper examines the UK Gender Recognition Act 2004. This Act removes some of the injustices of those wishing to register a gender different from that assigned at birth. However, there is some potential for inconsistencies with developing law and it is the aim of the piece to raise these
‘We are the dead … you are the dead’. An examination of sexuality as a weapon of revolt in Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four
This article examines sexuality as a weapon of revolt in Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four. The sexual relationship between Winston and Julia is scrutinised in terms of its effectiveness as a means of mutiny against, both, the omnipresent Party surveillant mechanisms and the underpinning thought-control and sex-control exercised by the Party. Some discrepancy is noted in Orwell's depiction of women and an attempt made to contextualise this within Orw…
The Photo-Journalist and the Changing News Image
Despite the many arguments which imply a fallibility inherent in the information contained within a photograph there is a tendency for audiences to treat the photographic still as a witness and the reputation of the press image is dependent on this. There has been a widespread integration of computer technology into newspaper production over the last 10 years and this has led to the production of images through qualitatively different production …
