Syd Barrett took a left turn and never came back, Andrew Voyce took a left turn and did. Why?
No full textThe aim of this paper is to compare the stories of Syd Barrett musician, with Andrew Voyce, and their respective recovery journeys.
The authors use collaborative autoethnography to share their own perspectives on Syd Barrett and to contrast his story with that of Andrew, a co-author.
Both Syd and Andrew experienced serious mental distress. While Syd had only limited contact with mental health services, Andrew’s contact was extensive, with a 20-year history of admissions and discharges. In the end, when the psychiatric services listened to Andrew’s concerns and acted on them, he was able to enter into the journey of recovery.
The authors are restricted in the amount of available information on Syd Barrett, especially that related to mental health problems. The story of Andrew shows how recovery is possible even after years of serious mental illness.
Andrew’s story shows why professionals should never give up on people, with even the most seemingly severe and intractable problems. Could services have done more for Syd?
Mental illness still attracts huge stigma. Today there is a much more open culture. Would Syd have come out about his own struggles with mental health had society been more open?
Bringing together two stories of mental distress enables the authors to explore the concept of recovery

University College Groningen Exchange Vlog for Barrett
No full textabstract: University College Groningen, in the Netherlands, is one of two Barrett Exchange programs. These programs allow for Barrett students to receive honors credit for their classes while studying abroad. While these programs are intriguing, there are no resources on the Barrett website that provide student accounts of the experiences. For the UCG exchange, there was only a link to the UCG website which was not extremely helpful for getting an understanding of what you will truly be getting yourself into while abroad. The solution that was decided upon was to create a vlog website for Barrett students to use as a resource when looking into the program. The site contains both person experiences from students, as well has helpful tips and tricks of how to maneuver your stay in the Netherlands. Overall, there were 8 videos created and 9 posts that can be used as resources for future Barrett students. The ‘Who are We?’, ‘Why a Barrett Exchange?’, ‘First Impressions and Adjusting to the Dutch Lifestyle’, and ‘Welcome Weeks’ posts contain testimony from two other Barrett students and myself who went on the exchange during the Fall, 2018 semester. The ‘Vistmarkt’ and ‘UCG Tour’ posts contain videos that show students places they will be able to venture to in the Netherlands. The ‘Travels Tips’ and ‘UCG Curriculum’ posts contain videos that have numerous tips for students who choose this exchange as their study abroad program they wish to participate in. The final post is called ‘Next Steps’ and it is meant for future students who wish to update and extend the knowledge that is presents on the website so that students can get the most up-to-date information. This website was created to give Barrett students a better understanding of the life-changing experience they are about to embark on

A Critical Review Syd Barrett: A Very Irregular Head
No full textThis Literature Review contextualises the work I undertook for „Syd Barrett: A
Very Irregular Head,‟ (1) a 140,000 word biography based on the life of the
musician Syd Barrett, lead guitarist, vocalist, and principal songwriter in the
original line up of Pink Floyd. The book is based on two and a half years of
focussed research, carried out between January 1997 and August 2009.
During this time I interviewed family, friends, schoolmates, fellow college
students, musicians, artists, and admirers from every stage of Barrett‟s life,
from his earliest days growing up in Cambridge, through his period as an
active musician and pop star, to his final years as a reclusive and enigmatic
figure in his home town. However, these 65 interviews comprise only one
element of my research. In addition I utilised an extensive range of primary
and secondary source material, and the bibliography for the book runs to
some 49 texts. (See appendix.) I also drew upon significant audio and video
material including rare and hard to find television transmissions, and archive
and bootleg recordings, many of which are not in the public domain
