Deconstructing Britpop

The Boys: Has superhero TV grown up?
US foreign policy, celebrities hijacking social issues to further brand recognition, and further manipulation of public perception for profit and narcissism as an aspect of parental love are some of the topics explored. You have been warned.

10 reasons social media is rotting your brain, the 8th will astound you.

What is the relevance of a producer in the 21st Century?
Nathan Ridley (Hermitage Works Studios) and John Clay (writer/director) explore the manifold title subject in the context of online tutorials and D.I.Y culture's relation to the old gaurd. Do you need a producer? Not an easy to dismiss option, and there is a ton of reasons why. Enjoy. Hermitage Works Studios run by Nathan Ridley & Margo Broom and is based in North East London.
Was being a '90s Sikh punk complicated?
Primitive Ignorant aka Symren Gharial and John Clay candidly discuss the fallout of Grenfell, addiction, racially-based self-harm and the possibility of overcompensation during 'time off' from discussions on racism. All this plus a deconstruction of the vocalist, LE JUNK, film director Steve Gullick Photography and Bess Cavendish, all collaborators on Primitive Ignorant's latest single, 'The Ballad of Markland Estate'.
What role does racial politics play in hyperreality?
Alexzander Mazey (Author of Living in Disneyland) & John Clay (Writer/Director) attempt to answer the title question in this latest episode of Rantbox TV.
.
Living In Disneyland
How do we cope with hyperreality? Alexzander Mazey joins DeAnna Avis/Brujx and John Clay in #RantboxTV to discuss his book (Living In Disneyland) which covers Baudrillard, Capitalist Realism and the lie of pure bottled water.
