Seminar - Saturday 15th November 03
I have organised a seminar event in conjunction with London Metropolitan University and Rich Mix Cultural Foundation. This will take place on Saturday 15th November at the Museum in Docklands, nearest tube, West India Quay DLR. The seminar will aim to explore the relationship between music and film in connection with ADF's performance in La Haine and the development of ADFED as a music technology training provider working with visual media<br>There will be a video presentation of ADF members talking about how and why la Haine came about. Panel members will be discussing the increasing dependancy of music with visual culture and exploring th epolitics of sound in relation to this. The whole day promises to be an exciting exploration of ideas looking at music and film and the stance their collaborators have taken on all levels Panel members include film/tv practitioners and chaired by Ashwani Sharma, Head of Media and Cultural Studies department, UEL and longtime supporter of ADFED.

Rich Mix, in partnership with ADFED , has been developed as a project of London-wide significance by means of a strategic alliance, which includes London Borough of Tower Hamlets, Cityside Regeneration, Ken Livingstone Mayor of London, the Greater London Authority (GLA), Whitechapel Art Gallery, Guildhall University and CM . The Rich Mix Cultural Foundation has won the support of important project champions including Professor John Solomos and Oona King, the local MP for Bethnal Green and Bow and chair of the Foundation. The support of London's Mayor and the Greater London Authority has helped the project develop an international dimension becoming a major cultural flagship for the capital and in particular the ethnic communities of East London.
