Fierce 10!

Fierce 10 launched today! In fact it kind of began yesterday with the Name In Lights project. A piece by Joshua Sofaer that challenges the Celebrity Culture that most people seem to immerse themselves in these days.











Joshua set up a project where by ordinary people could submit a name, any name and a reason why it should be placed on a building, up in lights. I entered my friend DJ Chicken, as he lost 5,000 records when Katrina hit New Orleans. Sadly his name didn’t get picked… but the name that did win was Una White. A loveley name and the name of a lady, a mother infact who passed away ten years ago this year. Seems rather fitting as this year also marks the tenth anniversary of the Fierce Festival.



In fact this years festival looks set to be the best yet! Right now I’m gearing up to document some of the key events for Fierce this year, starting with Name In Lights yesterday I’ve got ‘Haircuts By Children’ tomorrow morning! I guess it’s time for a trim?
