About Chocolate City
Chocolate City explores the rapid gentrification
of Washington DC through the eyes of a group of
impoverished black women forced from their city centre
homes to make way for new development, only a stone’s
throw from the world famous symbols of US power.
Authors: Ellie Walton and Sam Wild.
Hello..... we are The Kut. Sometimes being an all female band
can be difficult, especially when the soundguy walks over to you and
asks you when the band are going to get there! But these things inspire
us to be really good at what we do.
We hope you like the tracks. We don't bite & we really like it
when u are into what we do. We want to hear what music your into and
which songs you liked. If you like what u hear get in touch, add us,
come to a gig, spread the word! Thanks for checking us out X x
At the moment we're getting ready to do some new recordings with
our new drummer, Christina, so hopefully we can get down some of our
best stuff.
The AVPhD project http://www.avphd.ac.uk began October 2005 and we have AHRC funding until September 2008 to consolidate, expand and develop the project UK wide, and develop more national (and potentially international) collaborative connections. Audiovisual practice research PhDs were first accepted little over a decade ago and are now increasingly in demand. Our initiative is the first systematically to address the training needs of this growing community of doctoral students. One of the effects of our work to date has been to reveal the need for students to discuss issues with the (still relatively small) group of experienced supervisors and examiners, and vice-versa.
Our primary objective is to create a sustainable, engaging and lively UK wide training network for all those working towards audiovisual practice research PhDs. We believe this will involve a long term commitment to training, especially as the nature of the PhD is itself long term, and both students and staff will benefit from sustained and continuous networking, both live and online, which of course will help their developing academic careers.
