Seconded many times ... no one else but @janelong would trouble to hunt down FOUR SECONDS of Project Moon Base (1953) that illustrate the point made in our script but also establish yet another connection between obscure SF cinema as 2001 A Space Odyssey.

A special SECRETS OF CINEMA shout-out to @janelong who proved invaluable throughout the whole series - researching films and clips, suggesting titles and links, and generally making things better/easier for all. @nickfreand @AnnoDracula @NeilKBrand

I don't buy the argument by @trussliz that capitalism and private enterprise is responsible for e.g. the iPhone. Worth remembering how much was built on public-funded research, and designed by individuals who went through state-funded art colleges #changemakers2018

It's a special edition of my newsletter today, where I dug through the archives of @thetimes, stretching back to 1785, to find cool maps and graphics #ddj #gistribe #datviz: medium.com/@peteryeung/18…

I am sad that some terminally unemployed bozo with 1 O Level won’t be able to have their life saved, as mine was starting at NME in 1993. However, I still believe in print, paid for, and made with care. I hope someone smart sees this as a gap to be filled.

As custodians, IPC were about as careful with NME as the Taliban were with the Buddhas of Bamiyan. I know how hard it is to make a counterculture-leaning mag that also makes money ... but it should never have degenerated to that point

Can I just say, though, that there is a wealth of GREAT music writing around in 2018, in lots of different places, and anyone using NME's demise to argue otherwise can do one.

Outs to everyone else whose first thought on seeing the new Guardian website was 'I wonder if they needed to make any changes to the CMS?'
