Cuppa Culture
Written by Delboy   
Friday, 01 December 2006

 When Small Fish Online ventured across this tea and biscuit site, there seemed to be no one more qualified to take the subject on than our very own confectionary editor, Delboy.  But even he has found out truths about the perennial tradition of sipping Earl Grey and scoffing scones that makes him question his British pedigree.

Poster Boys
Written by Pete   
Friday, 01 December 2006

 Crushed cans of Carling lie fill up with rainwater in the gutter, handbills are turning to papier mâché.  You get on tiptoes, stick your fingernails between paper and board and, with painstaking slowness, try to peel the whole sheet off in one.  Everyone loves a rock poster.

C'etait un Rendez-Vous
Written by Pete   
Friday, 01 December 2006

 It starts suddenly, a low rumble on Boulevard Péripatique and the thump of changing gears.  The Arc de Triomphe looms, and for a few brief seconds it looks like the camera is going to power between the massive legs.

Ludicrous Diversion
Written by Delboy   
Thursday, 02 November 2006
 
 Delboy almost misses his reflection in the smoke and mirrors that continue to haunt all those who suffered in the wake of London's 2005 'terrorist attacks'. Ludicrous Diversion, an anonymously produced documentary, has a whole lot of bark - but is there enough bite?

Two Stories of the Twin Towers
Written by Nick P   
Wednesday, 01 November 2006

Every Monday in the G2 section of the Guardian, there is a cut out and keep page containing a compendium of all the reviews of the past week’s major cultural events. All of the major daily and Sunday broadsheets’ reviewers and their reviews are collated and pulped into snappy soundbites. I suspect this has been created to help out a person of an intellectual bent if they are asked for an opinion on a film, play or art installation they have somehow missed.

The Cedars @ The Good Ship, Kilburn
Written by Nick P   
Wednesday, 01 November 2006

One should always be wary when bands describe themselves or their sound as ‘uncategorisable’. It might indeed be the case that they are unable to squeeze themselves into a particular genre, and are truly at the head of taking particular influences and adding their own developments to previously known forms.

War On Terror - The Board Game
Written by Pete   
Tuesday, 03 October 2006

“Imagine that as a Sun headline: ‘Ambiguous Boardgame Subverts the Accepted Paradigm by Refusing to Offer Answers!’ Looking back, I’m not surprised that they went for the angle they did.”  But then, Andy Tompkins and Andy Sheerin could hardly have anticipated anything but vitriol when they started taking orders for War On Terror – The Board Game.  Could they?

Friday nights and pub quizzes; two bastions of contemporary English culture.  Crisps and peanuts in a bowl.  Teams of varying sizes sit huddled around pieces of paper.  All of these constituent parts are present at tonight‘s event.  However, this quiz is not taking place at the Laughing Windmill, but within the luxurious setting of the Tate Britain as part of the Late at the Tate series.

A Visual Revolution
Written by Pete   
Sunday, 01 October 2006

“Picasso didn't paint Guernica for a laugh, you know,” says Jonathan of the UHC Collective. “The line between artists and activists has always been blurred. In fact, it’s probably deeply counter-revolutionary to suggest there was a line in the first place.”  Since its foundation in 2002, Manchester-based UHC has been proudly deconstructing that grey area.
