SUMMARY:A Walk about Studio Electrophonique
DESCRIPTION:At  La Biblioteka \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a fascinating walking tour through Sheffield city centre celebrating the launch of “Studio Electrophonique” by Jamie Taaylor. This guided journey will take you through the musical landmarks that shaped Sheffield’s influential electronic music scene of the 1980s. \n\n\n\nDiscover the spaces and places that inspired groundbreaking artists like The Human League\, Heaven 17\, Pulp\, and ABC as we explore the city that fostered a unique DIY music culture during a time of industrial decline. \n\n\n\nPerfect for music enthusiasts\, local history buffs\, and anyone interested in Sheffield’s rich cultural heritage! \n\n\n\nAbout the book: \n\n\n\nThe amazing story of the home studio that helped launch some of Britain’s most beloved bands. \n\n\n\nThe Sheffield space age began in 1961\, when local mechanic Ken Patten won a tape-recording competition by recreating the sound of a rocket launch using a pencil and a bicycle pump. \n\n\n\nIn the decades that followed\, the makeshift home studio he constructed became the launch pad for a group of young musicians who would shape the futuristic sound of 1980s pop. The Human League\, Heaven 17\, Pulp\, ABC and others made their early recordings with Ken\, whose DIY ethic was the perfect fit for a city facing industrial decline but teeming with ideas. \n\n\n\nStudio Electrophonique tells the story of a generation seeking new frontiers in music\, using everything they could lay their hands on – from science fiction novels to glam rock\, Dada art and cheap electronics – to get there. Drawing on original interviews with Jarvis Cocker\, Martyn Ware\, Mark White and others\, it brings to light a world of humour\, charm\, creativity and unfounded yet undaunted self-belief. \n\n\n\nAbout the author: \n\n\n\nJamie Taylor is a writer and filmmaker from Sheffield. He is the director of The Campaigners and A Film about Studio Electrophonique. \n\n\n\nLocation:

SUMMARY:The Gamekeeper (screening + intro)
DESCRIPTION:Join The Showroom and And Other Stories for an evening celebrating the influential South Yorkshire-born novelist and screenwriter\, Barry Hines\, and the reissue of his masterpiece of nature writing and rural class conflict\, The Gamekeeper. \n\n\n\nBorn into a mining family in a village near Barnsley\, Barry Hines (1939-2016) worked first in a coal mine before going to college\, working as a teacher\, and then becoming a full-time writer of fiction and screenplays for film and television. Hines is best known for A Kestrel for a Knave\, a novel that has never been out of print in Britain and was filmed by Ken Loach as the widely acclaimed Kes. For over forty years he documented working-class lives with a boundless humanity\, deep empathy\, and ultimately\, hope. \n\n\n\nSheffield-based publisher AOS are proud to be reissuing a selection of Hines’ novels over the coming years\, including classics\, lesser-known gems and until-now undiscovered work. This April\, AOS published The Gamekeeper\, Hines’ gripping novel of rural working-class life through the changing seasons\, seen through the eyes of a gamekeeper on a country estate in the North of England. To mark its publication\, join us for a screening of the rarely-seen film adaptation of The Gamekeeperhttps://labiblioteka.co/product/the-gamekeeper/\, adapted by Hines and directed by Ken Loach. There will also be a series of short talks on Barry Hines’ work and legacy from those that he influenced and that knew and worked with him. \n\n\n\nThere will be an introduction before this screening. \n\n\n\nDavid Forrest is Professor of Film and Television and Studies at the University of Sheffield. His most recent book is New Realism: Contemporary British Cinema (2020)\, and with Sue Vice he is the co-author of Barry Hines: Kes\, Threads and Beyond (2017). \n\n\n\nRon Roseis a playwright and scriptwriter\, born in Sheffield and lives in Doncaster. He’s had over 70 plays performed professionally at theatres across the country including two verbatim dramas set in the ’84/’85 Miners’ Strike Never the Same Again and The Enemy Within; the WW2 mining strikes drama Bread and Roses; and the much-performed Ladies Darts drama Double Top. He’s written television scripts for Between the Lines\, The Bill\, Heartbeat\, the political series Love and Reason\, and many others. \n\n\n\nSue Vice is Professor of English Literature at the University of Sheffield where she teaches contemporary literature\, film and Holocaust studies. Her publications include the BFI Modern Film Classics volume on Shoah (2011)\, Textual Deceptions: Literary Hoaxes and False Memoirs in the Contemporary Era (2014)\, the co-edited volume Representing Perpetrators in Holocaust Literature and Film (2013) with Jenni Adams\, and Barry Hines: ‘Kes’\, ‘Threads’ and Beyond\, with David Forrest (2017).
