Poster of the Fleetwood Mac 'Ghost Gig' at Soho Poly Basement

The Centre welcomed two new members in April. Philip Kolvin QC joined as an Associate Fellow, see the University news item here. We also welcomed Dr Holly Hancock to the Centre, Holly gained her PhD from UEA in 2018 and has taught on the LLM Entertainment Law programme since 2019. Her research interests revolve around photography and privacy law and we have some interesting plans in store for the Centre based around this. A warm welcome to both. 

Anna Chronopoulou had a new article published, ‘The ‘Non-favourite’: Neo-tribal Sexualities on Celluloid’, Vol 6(2), ALJ, available online here

We were due to host a series of events as part of the Soho Poly Arts Club from March, this was obviously impacted by the lockdown. Guy Osborn blogged about the issue, ‘A Disruption, disrupted’, and we managed to host three online ghost gigs, Ralph McTell (twice) and Fleetwood Mac. We are hoping to continue this experiment.

Sir Richard Arnold, Visiting Professor at Westminster Law School and Associate Fellow of the Centre had an article published, ‘Paintings from Photographs: A Copyright Conundrum’,  IIC (2019) 50:860–878. We were delighted to host an early preview of what became this article at his annual lecture in February 2019. 

Pippa Catterall was interviewed on Radio 5 Live on the constitutional implications of the Prime Minister's illness on 7 April.
