Dj Dave Haslam shows us an image of himself at work, explaining that this is his natural habitat. His time at the Hacienda is only a part of his experience and knowledge of the sub cultural scene in Manchester. This experience and philosophy could be adapted to any art form. He used some inspiring language as he told his story of how the many (now world famous) bands started "life" in Manchester. Words I collected to start thinking about Unit X; mainstream versus marginal, start small, hidden, find a space and allies, make something happen, raw draft, fanzines. Visit YouTube to see his interview with Turner prize winner artist Jeremy Deller, ("Memory Bucket" 2004). Deller talks about his work "Procession", in the Manchester festival of 2009.
