Re:Sleeves 15th March 2013: Swans

​In the second Re:Sleeves show, host Ben Waddington dives into the ongoing design legacy of Swans, the seminal New York band who emerged in the early 1980's, and who thirty years later continue to make music which is perfectly expressed by the visuals which accompany it.

Re:Sleeves 1st Mar 2013: Weaving Down a Byroad

​Welcome to the very first edition of Re:Sleeves. Host Ben Waddington talks to Robert Sharl about the much-admired design of Bowie's "Berlin Trilogy".

Doom Ray Film Series @ BIAD

We asked Kyle Jobson, host of Doom Ray, to select three of his favourite contemporary movies and share them with students of Visual Communication at Birmingham Institute of Art & Design (of which Kyle is an alumni). Starting this week we'll be talking about his film choices on the show, and Kyle will be posting here as a guest blogger. Tune in here on Friday (or via Futurilla Radio on iTunes) to listen to the show, and contribute your own thoughts via comments.

Kyle's Intro to the Film Series is now online here, for your listening pleasure.
