Fritz Lang's Frau im Mond (Woman in The Moon, 1929)

This production photo is beautiful, and the film is important: first countdown, multi-stage rocket... A visionary sci-fi movie.

Not a single one of the 110,000 knuckle dragging thugs in London today will vote Labour.
There is nothing to be lost but plenty to be gained by Starmer condemning them in very strong terms.

I know a lot of people have expressed similar sentiments but I’ve lived in London for 20+ years and never felt threatened or a even a bit scared to be here until today. This needs to end.

I've just finished another stint working with the Edinburgh TV Festival, designing the printed brochure and on-site graphics for this year's 50th Anniversary event. The Festival is run by the TV Foundation, a charity that works to make the TV industry more accessible for all.

I’ve been a defender of the BBC for all of my life, I think, and I have worked in their newsrooms and on other shows and projects. Ever since we were told they were going to go further right to appease right wing people, the whole news department has gone mental.

Perhaps, one day, schoolkids will study this squalid little chapter in British terror-panic history. When they do, I hope these two headlines from today are printed side by side, with clear annotation of which individual faced more outrage and condemnation.

Irish public consultation on UBI for artists. Meanwhile the UK government last consulted us on if we’d mind all our assets, pensions and property being stolen by the world’s worst arseholes to feed into their planet burning machine.
Would you like to contribute to the public consultation about the Basic Income for the Arts? 💡

Sky Kids will no longer commission originals. Massive hit to a sector of the UK TV industry. (From Broadcast). Leaves only BBC & 5 commissioning originals for children.

If this is accurate, WeTransfer is unusable for professional creative work. Would violate most work-for-hire contracts to share copyrighted material with a third party like this.
Bye forever, WeTransfer.

Disrespectfully, I need anyone who has not looked for a job within the past year to shut up because shit has changed. Your advice and experience doing this in the past means nothing. You have not job hunted like people are job hunting right now, don’t give people false hope with your outdated ideas
