@prof_guy_osborn @UniWestminster Those hairdryers look lethal.

Stephen Malkmus' Pavement at @UniWestminster? Surely not? You're right, another outlier as playing their classic Cut Your Hair allows us to post some images of the role of our LTS building training hairdressers - including Vidal Sassoon #DisruptYourXmas

@UniWestArc @prof_guy_osborn It's really nice up there, but would need a refurb to be safe.

@UW_WLS @prof_guy_osborn Stick a few tables up there and would make a perfect staff room for the current times!

One of the students made a video for Renegade Soundwave using our roof at @UW_WLS. The (brilliant) image shows our roof c1929, our view of All Souls and the BBC is slightly compromised now by new builds. See a massive rendering of this image outside @UniWestArc

@UniWestArc @prof_guy_osborn Now that's a Westminster pub quiz fact!

@UW_WLS @prof_guy_osborn That was the Balderton Street studios - opposite Selfridges. Only Poly building to get bombed in WW2.

What is now @UW_WLS used to house the media students and had great studios, a very old example pictured here. In the 80s some of the media students would use the facilities for private commissions... #DisruptYourXmas

@UniWestArc @prof_guy_osborn Which building is it?

@prof_guy_osborn @UW_WLS This isn't LTS!

We are aiming to have a Shelagh McDonald ghost gig in February, watch this space and for more on ghost gigs and found sounds see tiny.cc/FoundSounds. Previous ones have included New Order, Ralph McTell and Fleetwood Mac #DisruptYourXmas

When we are back on site pop in to @UW_WLS site and see the image we have installed in our foyer during lockdown, it's taken by one of our LLM Entertainment Law graduates George Chin who is also a renowned rock photographer. #DisruptYourXmas
