This site presents videos of academics from various disciplines, talking to camera about their interests and research. The aim is to communicate research in a way that is accessible to the wider public. The videos are professionally made and the participants present their ideas clearly in an unadorned, simple way, largely relying on direct, to camera communication, without any other audiovisual aids. Users can narrow their search by four broad categories: Arts and Humanities, Formal Sciences, Natural Sciences, Professional and Social Sciences. Amongst the disciplines currently represented on the site are Architecture, History, Philosophy, Sociology, Finance, Fashion, Film Studies, Management and Planetary Sciences. All content is free to view but there are various Licensing options for use of the content beyond the platform. A simple idea, well executed.

This website is the result of an AHRC-funded project to explore the relationship of film history, memory and the urban landscape of Liverpool from 1897 to the 1980s. Liverpool is one of Britain’s most filmed cities and one of the project’s achievements has been the creation of an online catalogue listing around 1700 films, particularly those which record the city’s urban landscape, documenting locations, landmarks and buildings. Consequently the emphasis is on amateur, newsreel, travelogues and promotional films, rather than fiction or feature films. In addition to the usual searches by genre, date etc. users can also search the catalogue by spatial and geographic information specific to each title.
There are also a number of videos, filmed at various events held throughout the project’s duration. Here writer Iain Sinclair talks about his view of Liverpool as an outsider. In this video Ethel Singleton speaks about her role in the Nick Broomfield documentary Behind the Rent Strike (1974), about the action undertaken by tenants in Kirkby New Town in December 1972 in protest at the Housing Finance Bill.

This innovative podcast is created and presented by Roman Mars, who devotes each 5 to 10 minute episode to exploring an aspect of design or architecture, based on the notion that the most interesting aspect of an object or building is almost always overlooked. From there Mars usually tries to draw a wider conclusion about what makes design work and the difference between good and bad design. Episodes cover such diverse subjects as the reconstruction of Warsaw’s Old Town after World War II, the theory of dazzle camouflage and the design of airport terminals, parking meters and toothbrushes.
