Sanchia Lewis
Sanchia Lewis was born in Blackheath, London, in 1960. After completeing her foundation year at Medway College of Design, she studied printmaking at the City and Guilds of London Art School, passing her certificate in printmaking with distinction in 1982. On leaving college, she trained as an editioner with the etcher Paul Bisson before receiving an award from the Princes Trust, which enabled her to set up her own studio.
Sanchia has exhibited widely in the U.K., Holland, France, the former Soviet Union and the United States. In 1993, she was awarded First Prize in the Portobello Open Exhibition and in 1995, the Marlborough Gallery Prize at the National Print Exhibition.
U.K. Galleries include, Honor Oak Gallery, London SE23, Westbourne Gallery, London SW8, Cambridge Contemporary Art, Cambridge, Castle Gallery, Inverness, and the Serena Hall Gallery, Suffolk.
Publications include, The Art World Directory, published by Art Review, Who's Who in Art, The Art Trade Press Ltd, and the Dictionary of International Biography, International Biographical Centre Cambridge.
This year her work has been selected for inclusion in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, and the Contemporary Printmaking Exhibition 'Originals 06' at the Mall Galleries, at which she is a regular exhibitor.
Now living near Peckham Rye, she works in a converted stable building by the side of her house, producing etchings and paintings. The sources of her inspiration are varied- a walk in the country, animals, birds, a visit to a Museum, ancient artefacts, a piece of treen, an antique rug - filtered by her sub -concious mind, they evolve into richly textured, brightly coloured works functioning as the visual diary of a very lateral thinker, combining symbolism, humour and, sometimes, a dreamy, other-worldly quality.

Payam
Payam is a sleepy little village in the valley of Western Ghats, surrounded by river Bavali in Kannur district of northern Kerala. Though lying close to Iritty, the nerve centre of business in this hilly region, it lies isolated as there is no proper transport facilities to reach the village. Agriculture is the main occupation and it has a glorious history of farmers’ movement way back in 1948. As much as 11 farmers were shot dead at Salem Jail during the movement. Noted journalist Payam Sudhakaran hails from this lethargic hamlet. Even in this modern times, Payam remains like a fictional hamlet with its thousand-odd strong population still living a life far away from the growth.

Justicia pectoralis (tilo)
Justicia pectoralis (Acanthus family) is a herb known as tilo in Cuba and other Spanish speaking countries (e.g. Costa Rica, Dominican Rep., Venezuela) and chapantye in Haiti. In Cuba and other countiries from Brazil to the US it is used in folk medicine as a relaxant and general tonic. In recent years, with the US government's illegal blockade of the island intensified, it has been used extensively by Cuban health services: there is evidence of its antiinflamatory and relaxant effects. The name tilo could be by association with tilia, the linden tree whose flowers have similar relaxant properties but which is unrelated.

KIQQ-FM
KIQQ-FM existed as an FM Top-40 format station in the Los Angeles market from 1973 to 1989 on FM frequency 100.3. KIQQ reached its broadest appeal during the early 1980's in Los Angeles during the 1980's "Pop Explosion," though it focused primarily on main stream artists (Michael Jacskson, Lionel Ritchie, Paul McCartney, Madonna, Culture Club and Duran Duran, to name a few), and rarely played alternative artists. Notable on-air talent included Bruce Chandler. As a whole, it suffered from lackluster ratings, changed to an adult contemporary format in 1986, and eventually sold to Scott Shannon, who renamed it Pirate 100.KKBT Wikipedia entry
KIQQ was probably most notable during that time for its "General Hospital" updates each day at 1:50, ten minutes before the daily airing of the show. This practice began with the release of the novelty song by the same name in 1982, when the soap opera was at the height of its popularity.

Virtual Alien
Summary
Virtual Alien is a British composer, singer and film director.
He released 15 albums and 8 feature films and documentaries.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1807599/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascination_%28David_Bowie_song%29
Discovery
Virtual Alien (V.A.) real name is Nick Peterson. He came up with the concept for his one-man band Virtual Alien at the tender age of 14. He was born in 1973 in Perth, Scotland and grew up in London with a spell of nine years in Switzerland which he later described as the most frightening and horrific experience of his entire life.
Albums
He unleashed his debut, War of Love in 1988 and sold four million singles. The album of the same name featured “War of Love” and “Heaven” in perfect harmony with the music of the time. The album only sold 1M. units. A series of dark and gothic EPs and singles followed between 1988 and 1990 all released under the name of “Old Nick” : “Twist, Fate and Heaven”, “The “White and Black Side”, “Well Red”.
He was hit by a cab in London in 1989, went into a coma and wasn't able to leave the hospital for five months.
He returned to recording in 1990 and released “King of the World”, with the video from the title track that commented on the Gulf War. The album was a stark departure from the pop and techno world that characterised “War of Love”. The album featured the quintessential rock anthem: “King of the World” written by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. This grunge-inspired album was the most expensive to record to date. It featured the hits “Thundering Typhoons” first released in 1992, 1993, 1997 and 2002 and sold over 3M units. “With a mouse (to your mouth)” and the song described as containing some of the best lyrics in Rock: “Knocking on Heaven’s Door”. The “King of the World” video was banned at the time by MTV for containing graphic images of war during the coming Gulf War.
Studies
Unhappy with the lack of attention the album received, Nick Peterson dropped out of music, studied Dramatic Arts in London, achieved a degree in English Literature and continued his studies from which he received a M.A. in Interactive Multimedia in 2000 at London St Martins, University for the Arts.
The “King of the World” album was re-released 3 times and by 1995 finally achieved the recognition it deserved with 4 Million units sold.
The Edge
In 1990 Virtual Alien launched the "Edge" magazine in Islington, North London with a European Community and Islington grant as the two were extremely keen in promoting the image of Islington as the "Real London". The Edge had then a circulation of 25 000 ex. The Edge used a special imported Kraft paper from France made out from 100% recycled textile with green and red ink. In 1992 the issue 6 received the ultimate accolade when MTV saw a copy and sent a fax saying how "fabulous" the magazine was. By 1995, The Edge magazine was selling well with huge export to the U.S. and at its peak achieved a circulation of 45 000, but wasn't commercially viable so it was time to pull the plug.
Whilst the trademark on the title is still valid many magazines with the same title have proliferated around the world since the original Edge magazine.
There was a unique American version of the magazine called The "Globe of America" inserted inside the Edge magazine and printed in Canada.
Back in music
In 1995 V.A. published his first book: “Map of the Universe”. In 1996 Virtual Alien spends 6 months recording a new album: "Loud Mouth" A mixture of Bass and drums with Techno and Jungle. The single was released in January 1997 at the height of the ‘bass and drums’ period but to little acclaim. It flopped in the charts on a major scale with just 100 000 copies sold. The album was then dropped. MTV refused to play the video, described as too ‘hallucinating’ with stroboscopic and fluorescent lights rotating in turn for 4 minutes. The album will be released for the first time to coincide with the nineties revival in late 2007.
Virtual Alien World
In 1999 whilst at college, V.A. meets Tom Norwood a young Computer Science student. Together they will be involved with all the media projects that are set to come out of this new collaboration including the web activities, the infamous Y2K Diary.com and DiaryUnlimited .com.
In 2000, he introduced his Y2K diary website, a site that commented on the Internet culture. The Virtual Alien track "The Way You Make Me Feel" was used at the website's party launch and eventually received 8,000 downloads the first week. It was enough for MTV Europe to air the track's video in the Party Zone and enough to influence Virtual Alien to work again in music. "The Way You Make Me Feel" a re-mix by the DJ BabyFox was the theme tune to his new ‘Y2K Showcase’ held every month in different London venues.
In 2001 a compilation album “Debut de Siecle” sold extremely well, reminiscent of his “War of Love” heydays. “V.A. presents Old Nick” followed a year later, a compilation of the EPs and singles released under the name of “Old Nick”.
Films
In 2001 “Scary Monsters” his first film was released, about Laurent Mercier a fashion designer in Paris presenting a collection on the catwalk featuring Virtual Alien's cover version of David Bowie's 'Fascination', also released under Virtual Alien's other name of 'Old Nick'. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascination_%28David_Bowie_song%29) Then “Quick Step Beyond” followed.
In 2002 “Map of the Universe”, a short film based on his 1995 novel came out then “The Memos”, a series of short films based on the theme of mental health. ‘What we see happens inside a contestant’s mind inside a TV game show’. The game show is “EST” or the Kelvin Game show later re-branded as the "Psycho Show". A TV series is scheduled with 18 hours of shows. A feature film “The Complete Map of the Universe” (2006) with Mark Joseph, Jenia Emmanuelle, Jonathan Cross and Stuart Mansell will epitomise this exploration of mental health. The film contains a lot of male and female nudity and has been mostly shot with infra-red cameras.
In 2002 “Dance” a compilation remixed by various DJs is released.
Whilst still obsessed with the subject of his book “Map of the Universe” during 1999 and 2006 Virtual Alien interviewed members of a Nigerian tribe, the Ijaws from the oil region. This resulted in the feature-documentary: “Burning from the Inside” released in 2007. It features Sokari Ekine and Oronto Douglas.
In 2006 V.A. worked on a psycho-thriller starring Stuart Mansell, Jenia Emmanuelle, Alex Hall and Vincent Hall: “Speed of Light” (2007), alongside “Digital Broadcast” (2007) a documentary with and based around the life of the American broadcaster Paul Gambaccini.
In 2008 V.A. will continue to work a new feature: “Knocking on Heaven’s Door” (Knock-Knock in the U.S.).
Most of V.A.’s films: “In and Out of Planet Earth”, “EST”, “Writing on the Wall”, “Digital Broadcast”, “Speed of Light” and “The Complete Map of the Universe” have been released as an audio soundtrack album featuring the music and the best of the audio content. All features are due to be finally released in late 2007 and 2008 in theatres, online or on DVD.
All films have been produced by Tom Norwood, David Altman and Alex Altman.
2007. In December Virtual Alien announced that he will embark on a world tour for the first time since 1998.
