We are conducting a national Artists and Creatives Survey to help us better understand the practice, needs and barriers of UK based artists. If you’re a UK based artist or creative please fill in the survey and share with your networks! Survey closes 13 February 2022.

As part of Digital Democracies we invited curator and researcher, Laurence Hill, to commission some short pieces of writing on how digital technology and digital thinking have impacted us and our public spaces.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our 10th year anniversary of Frequency Festival! Through the festival, culture played its part in bringing us back to our public spaces as we return to our cities and towns during the Covid-19 pandemic.

2021 marks the tenth anniversary of Frequency Festival, an ambition we at Threshold aspired to back in 2011 without knowing quite how we would pull that off. Co-Founder of Threshold Studios and Ex-Festival Co-Director, Barry Hale, talks about his journey to achieving the impossible.

We are pleased to announce the second Artist Development event as part of the Digital Democracies project, Digital Democracies Masterclass #2: The Art of Sound.

In a time of unprecedented reliance on digital technology to connect people, a pioneering two-year national public art project Digital Democracies is being launched.

In 2020 we were delighted to help NN Contemporary tackle the challenges of delivering professional creative development during the pandemic. Funded by SEMLEP, the NN Ambassadors programme introduced us to a cohort of talented new voices working across a range of disciplines.  And, as they prepare to take on the first new cohort of 2021 … Continue reading Meet NN Ambassador: Midlands-based Maker and Illustrator Rosie May →

In response to the pandemic, we worked with NN Contemporary from July to December last year to turn their physical programme into an online CPD programme.

The UK’s first national project led by Neurodivergent (ND) artists will present a landmark report at Mozilla’s MozFest later this month.

Threshold Studios founder and director on his decision to leave and pursue his own creative practice

We’re excited to announce Digital Democracies – a national project exploring technology enabled art in public spaces –  is launching in September 2020.

Led by Threshold Studios, Digital Democracies connects three UK-based festivals – Frequency Festival in Lincoln, Freedom Festival in Hull and Brighton Digital Festival – along with a network of associate partners and collaborators across the UK.

As an organisation and as individuals we stand in full support of the Black Lives Matter movement.  We need to build and empower industries, institutions, audiences, sectors and a society that are truly representative and equal.

As UK lockdown eases, what has been the impact on our cultural sector and where do we go from here? We need to consider how we will bring audiences back. What post-pandemic cultural experience and practice will look like. It’s not feasible to reinstate what we knew as the norm.

We writers, artists and musicians need to seize this opportunity that enforced social distancing now offers us before it evaporates. It’s time to switch into hermit mode, put aside our anxieties of the factors over which we have no influence and make best use of the free time to come.

We’re pleased to be offering remote artist micro-surgeries, a mini version of our Critical Friend Programme, during the present crisis for isolated artists, writers and filmmakers. So if you’re embarking on a creative project, mid-way through one or considering your future options and just need to run your thoughts past someone, get in touch.

It’s heartening to see the positivity that is coming out in this challenging and uncertain time, with people across all sectors and walks of life keeping it together and stepping up to support each other as we navigate this situation globally. This will make us stronger.

20 years ago I rescued from a skip the video archives of a community arts organisation here in Northampton that I used to volunteer for.  It had closed its doors after 19 years of service to the town and there was no one left but me to salvage its long history.  About that same time we at … Continue reading Burning Down the House →

Six months ago I met my good friend of 35 years, writer Stephen Loveless, for our usual weekly coffee and a chat. It was just before I went away on holiday for a couple of weeks.

I don’t do New Year’s Resolutions.  I gave them up some time ago – we all know why; they tend to be based on some mild guilt about something we do and shouldn’t or something we’re not doing and should.  How many New Year gym memberships lie paid-for and unused once March comes around?   Instead, I got into … Continue reading What’s your Resolution? →

There’s been a huge increase in events, exhibitions and engagement projects around art and activism in visual arts galleries, major institutions and independent spaces.  In fact there is now a new phrase; Activism, or Socially Engaged Practice, have replaced the term Community Arts, but for me the work is still very similar –it’s just a different … Continue reading Art and Social Activism →

No-one in their right minds goes into the arts for the money, but so many artists remain in the dark about the financial aspects of the arts – whether they can ask to be paid, whether they can sell their work and, if so, for how much.  But what if you don’t want to sell … Continue reading We Need to Talk About Money! →

We celebrate the unrefined voice.

I see art as something that can’t be graded.

With the millions of photographs we take every day, have these images replaced our memories with idealised visions of key moments in our lives. Can we trust the history they tell?

We are now living in the digital age, with thousands of people relying on technology in their everyday lives.

A set of recurring motifs seem to feature in ancient and primitive art from around the world, spanning centuries, cultures, continents. Some have speculated that these motifs represent evidence of an inherent noise within the hardwired circuits of our neural networks. Certain patterns recur because they are generated by the very wiring of our senses … Continue reading Threshold’s Intraference exhibiting at Breaking Convention 2015 →

Something magic(k)al happens every time I end up in Northampton.

So yes, I’m old enough to have been there at the dawning of the cultural revolution that was Punk and all the subsequent kaleidoscopic offshoots that blossomed from that defiant root, planted in the industrial ruins of what was Broken Britain in 1976. What was bad about that time was the sense that an entire … Continue reading Is Independent Publishing the new Punk? →

This month we’ve been focusing on the planning for October’s Frequency Festival of Digital Culture – sketching out possible sites and the artists who might suit those spaces.

Frequency … Continue reading Mallarmé Leads the Way →

I can’t begin to explain how happy I feel for Cuba and the friends I’ve made there.

Coincidentally, … Continue reading When it all comes right →

No training, no qualifications, … Continue reading Thirty Years and Counting… →

I’ve been thinking a lot today about the theme for the next Frequency Festival in 2015 and about the word liberation in the context of the digital revolution.

Here’s our very own Barry interviewing Stephen Loveless about his novella, Hibakusha. If this sounds like the sort of thing you’d be into, you can get the eBook from Amazon, or a signed paperback from Threshold’s eBay store.

“beneath the waters of the river, trapped in the chains of the dancing weed, I listened to the rumble of my own escaping breath….” Reality disintegrates on the riot-torn streets of Paris. Hallucinations and distorted memories collide with the fractured present as the end of a turbulent l’Amour Fou is mirrored in the city’s self-destruction. … Continue reading Secret Cages – Barry Hale →
