"It remains a scandal of the London Games that £9bn was spent without regenerating the Crystal Palace National Stadium, an omission that tells us a great deal about how such a wealthy nation is so poor in its physical culture" Great article by @barneyronay theguardian.com/sport/blog/2…
Loved it. Brilliant work!

As @bewithrecords re-issues Another Thought, one of my favourite albums by Arthur Russell, here's an article I wrote in 2006 about Arthur / the album for @FluxMagazine. Featuring interviews with Steve Knutson @AudikaRecords & the producer Don Christensen - stuartaitken.com/post/660365…
‘To not have the sport in London is a big problem. You can’t have a major sport that doesn’t exist in London. It feels like athletics is in danger of losing its soul.’ #CPSNC ‘Crystal Palace was the spiritual home of British Athletics..." Sir Brendan Foster.

Was that a press conference or the opening scene of a new Adam Curtis documentary? 🤯
It’s easy to assume the internet just magically exists, out there in the ether somewhere. No. It’s a lot of physical infrastructure, exchanges, hardware. And a lot of people are busting it to keep it all working. We’d be lost without it. Thank you!!! #keyworkers 👏 👏 👏 @LBC
