Yummy Mummy: Series 1, episode 4

Continuing with our digging up of the original and rather different YMSR series from 2008, this week’s blast from the past comes to you from the park just round the corner from the Resonance studio, where the sun is shining and the birds are singing.  But even this pleasant scene throws up some intriguing questions, such as why is Yummy Mummy perched atop the band-stand dressed in a giant pigeon costume? And why is the evil Thomas Weaver-Baxter watching him through his field glasses and cackling? Could it all have something to do with today being the inaugural day of the mating season for all winged creatures of the air? Will Yummy Mummy get his feathers ruffled? And couldn’t we have given radio legend Willem De Ridder a slightly better role?

Objectionable tomfoolery for children of all ages.

Yummy Mummy: Series 1, episode 3

This week in the latest of our podcasts exhuming the original and somewhat different 2008 series of YMSR; the team are learning all about music. A rather strange woman called Miss Ding-Dong (who sadly didn’t have the mileage to become a regular character) presents her own completely mis-leading history of music in a little under two minutes, and world famous jazz musician Art Farnaby drops into the studio to give us a demonstration of the saxophone. But evil station manager Thomas Weaver-Baxter is up to his old tricks again and poor Art soon finds himself having to contend with a Parsnip blockage…

Slightly appalling fun for children of all ages.

Art Monthly October 2010

In an age saturated with news footage of international disasters, artists question photojournalism. John Douglas Millar cites artists such as Renzo Martens, Harun Farocki and Aernout Mik, and asks: does art’s subjectivity give it a unique angle on the exploitation of tragedy?

‘Artists who critique how we consume images of atrocity pose questions about how we might step beyond the barrier of “looking”, to an ethical position with regard to images described by the Israeli philosopher and photography theorist Ariella Azoulay as “watching”.’
Andrew Hunt suggests that optimism and humour are intelligent alternatives to the cynicism of postmodern irony

Artists’ use of irony is commonplace, but irony’s reliance on a knowing viewer ensures that it cannot reach beyond a closed audience. Andrew Hunt wonders whether an open humour, as employed by Martin Kippenberger, Christian Jankowski and Wolfgang Tillmans, can reach out instead of in.

‘One answer to Ludwig Seyfarth’s question, “is there an alternative to Postmodern irony?”, is “humour”. While irony is a knowing critical instrument, humour, by contrast, can be described as a system that questions accepted values and patterns of experience.’

Art Monthly Show on ResonanceFM-10th September 2010

Jennifer Thatcher and Andrew Hunt discuss their texts from the September 2010 issue of Art Monthly with Matt Hale. Jennifer Thatcher’s feature “Extreme Gallery Makeover” covers new trends and approaches to gallery design and emphasis. “It is time to admit that the white cube no longer possesses the authority it once did, when you can buy that once-mysterious aura for a few quid down at B&Q, and it has been a long while since galleries just showed objects and framed work. But are there more appropriate and radical alternatives to the non-spaces of glass boxes and ex-industrial sites beyond a cosy retreat into the domestic and private? ”

Andrew Hunt’s discusses his review of “Curating and the Educational Turn” “a multi dialogic curatorial extravaganza” which states that a shift towards education is currently pervasive in curatorial practice.
