I am a recently graduated BA Fine art student, this blog is intended to detail the ideas and construction of my studio practice. My work is about exploring the notion of taboo, censorship and obscenity. I recently started using digital manipulation, but primarily work in painting and drawing. My work often uses transgressive themes which contain nudity.If you are under 18 or feel you may be offended by this, please leave the site now. Thank you.
This was actually broadcast it is not a spoof, though it might be hard to believe.It is easy to empathise with the reaction of the female journalist when she sees what is being broadcast by Fox to celebrate the achievements of women in 2013.
Why any person would work for The Murdoch family is beyond me, considering it is a news network that actively hates women. This clip being a fairly decent example.
Deeply sexist.
Please think twice when you buy a newspaper owned by The Murdoch family and please try not to watch any of their news shows.You are supporting deeply racist and sexist broadcasting that has no interest in informing you, but simply pandering to your prejudices and manipulating you in order to increase profit for their business interests and secure political influence.
(edit) i will be making a post on News International's approach to the depiction of women in all its media.
Stick to broadsheets , use critical thinking and be a good person.
Dr Jocelyn Bell discovered the pulsar a highly magentised dead star that emits immensely powerful radio waves. Here she is accepting her honorary degree form Lancaster University in a Tesco Burka.
I have been using Dr Bell for a while now, since she faced huge dis crimination as a female astrophysics student in the sixties at Cambridge. And one had the hilarious, though disturbing, situation where her professors preferred to believe her data on the pulsars must be little green men rather than accept the scientific conclusions of a woman that she had discovered a new astrophysical phenomenon.In fact they held a boys only tree house conference in which they considered destroying her data because of the panic it would cause.
Here she is in a short film (2min) talking about her discovery.
I am always interested in the discussion on religious coverings, since in England this is a relatively new phenomenon from recent immigrants.The discussions one finds promoted by the media are of course the worst type of yellow journalism. With rent-a-fundamentalists and bigots helpfully shouting down the camera lense at the audience, and little actual information provided. And, more importantly , one hardly ever sees women on the platform discussing this, since this effects them, not men. Will we ever have objective journalism?
I would love to hear other peoples view on face coverings. Thanks if you comment. And sorry for my delays in posting and replying
