John Mallinson

And me now. A temporary glitch.

Anyone else having trouble with this? It seems completely broken - I get and error screen when I try to search. I'll give it a while and then report it if not cured.

Good interview with him in today's Arts Desk.

Discussion of this production is here

I don't use a Flickr account but gather that the free service is 'limited' to 1,000 images.

The system here doesn't allow for individual tailoring in that way.

The size limit of individual uploads is 150k so I don't quite understand your problem unless you have hit your head on the ceiling. There is an overall limit per member of 1.5Mb - I've just increased it so it might be worth trying again. The way round the restrictions is to upload images to a file sharing site and link to them from there. That's how, for instance, DanceTabs' photos are put on the site without overloading the system, in that case via Flickr.

Hope that helps.

Well, it's beyond me how system-sensitive the same original layout can be.

It's pretty standard these days for websites to be able to detect the nature of the device that you're using and adapt their display accordingly. Effectively that relies on having several potential versions of the site sitting on top of each other and presumably, in this case, the coding changes needed for different screen sizes haven't been completed which is why there seems to be a mish-mash.

Would be fabulous if the discussions could be filmed too but I suppose I mustn't get greedy! I assume the powers that be think there isn't enough interest for them (or the 'right' young audience wouldn't be interested; only us pesky regulars).

Or that people who have paid for tickets deserve a bonus.
