• Digbeth Coach Station the Progress so Far in 2008 – A YouTube video by R Deloyde of what looks like a dank and desolate building site with the soundtrack of a car alarm. This feast for the eyes unfortunately can’t be embedded – is the filmmaker worried every site will want one?
• Not long til Gigbeth – So Created in Birmingham’s done a useful Gigbeth links post, which features an interview with organiser Clare Edwards. Today’s the last day to get hold of those early bird tickets, so hurry.  Meanwhile Big Cat Kenny posts about the new headliners announced for Gigbeth Fabio and Kano.
• CABE slams Eastside Locks masterplan – “In the absence of a concept, the design lacks rigour and is a weak response to [the] valuable assets of the canal and the park…Overall, the masterplan misses many vital opportunities to make this a meaningful place and requires a fundamental rethink.” Oo-er.
• Hello World – Big Cat Kenny posts about the conference running alongside the Hello Digital festival, and also Film Dash this weekend.
• Screen WM cover the Digishorts at Hello Digital on Saturday 25th October 3.30pm, Millennium Point – Birmingham Animator Stephen Spencer will start the event, followed by Geoff Thompson, Justin Edgar and Samm Haillay.
