Let loose the loganberries of war: Making noise and occupying space in Govanhill

Brown and Warren met in 2008 while living in the Glasgow neighbourhood of Govanhill, a district characterised in recent years by its significantly high rates of drug overdoses, domestic abuse, alcohol abuse, serious crime and murder. In spite of these problems, many of which have been shown to be intimately connected to the predominance of old and poorly maintained tenement housing, Govanhill is one of the most culturally vibrant and politically active neighbourhoods in Glasgow. Brown served as the lead author of the article, researching the statistical data and literature informing the paper and conducting and coding an interview with the artist Marielle MacLeman.
