Michaela Coel's MacTaggart Memorial Lecture


The Edinburgh International Television Festival is best known for its keynote address: the James MacTaggart Memorial Lecture. The lecture features speeches from leading media figures connected with British and international television over more than 40 years.

Gogol Bordello: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert


We've been filming Tiny Desk concerts for more than 10 years. While revisiting our archives, we discovered that some of our earliest concerts never made it to YouTube!


Stephen Thompson | June 28, 2010


If you watch this video and don't get to the part where Eugene Hutz is dancing on the desks, then you've missed the most rollicking and insane Tiny Desk Concert of all time.


I've seen Gogol Bordello at a nightclub, and its live show is a gypsy punk circus, complete with a high-wire act. So when th...

Maria Maddalena in Estasi

Artemisia_Gentileschi_-_Mary_Magdalene_in_Ecstasy.jpg


Artemisia Lomi or Artemisia Gentileschi (July 8, 1593 – c. 1656) was an Italian Baroque painter, now considered one of the most accomplished seventeenth-century artists working in the style of Caravaggio. In an era when women had few opportunities to pursue artistic training or work as professional artists, Artemisia was the first woman to become a member of the Accademia di Arte del Disegno in Florence and had an international clientele.

My name is Mike McIlvaney


My photography is an expression of my curiosity for people and the places they inhabit. I am particularly drawn by interactions between people and with the structures that surround them in the urban landscape.


When not working to a project my photography is generally unplanned, always candid and in public. All images derive from single shots. I delight in capturing the spontaneous events and occurrences that unfold before the camera’s lens transforming otherwi...

Edit: Mark Whelan
Colour grading: Vic Parker


I can tell we’ve got potential,
Is this love too hot to handle?
Make a wish, blow out my candle,
Make a wish for me.

Show me you can listen closely,
Tell me you can take it slowly,
That’s the way to get to know me,
Get to know me.

I know the way to make you happy,
I give you love, you give it back to me.
Who can deny this perfe...
