English Anxieties
No full textBrennan was commissioned to explore the Mass Observation archive at the University of Sussex. The archive is the material evidence of the work first carried out by The Mass Observation Unit from 1936 onwards that formed an anthropology of everyday life in the United Kingdom.
The research period of the project was 9 months and formed the basis of an Honorary Fellowship at UWN (where Brennan presented an additional research seminar and lecture to staff and students).
The resulting suite of works combine a publication, photography, vinyl drawings, the curating of original archival material and the re-working of a fascinating account by British explorer and archaeologist T.C. Lethbridge of a concealed enemy presence in Cambridgeshire in 1940. Taking descriptions and drawings made by Lethbridge as a starting point, Brennan represents this data in the form of large, colourful maps inspired by the Isotype graphical system (Otto Neurath) developed in the 1930s.
The commission exists as the first attempt by a visual artist to articulate the MO archive, which, until Brennan’s involvement had been focused upon by historians and literary figures only. The commission enabled a clear investigation into the material (plastic/visual) qualities of the archive and the forensic behaviours of researchers. In this respect it offers a valuable insight for all those involved in analysing the archive and the ways in which we conserve and develop our understanding of history.
The work builds upon the strand in Brennan’s oeuvre concerned with artists working with and through archives. Two of his previous key works in this mode were with The National Maritime Museum (2002) and British Museum (2003
Museum of Angels: A Guide to the Winged Creatures (multiple outputs)
No full textBook published on behalf of the British Museum in London. The author, Tim Brennan (scholar and researcher at the University of Sunderland, author of several important publications), offers an original and interesting annotated guide (with text, illustrations and instructions) of images depicting angels or heavenly creatures inspired by the present within the halls of the British Museum, and which constitute the collection. Sculptures, drawings, paintings, effigies, etc.. that evoke the angelic figure that since ancient times in religious and secular, is the guardian deity of every man that the angel protector, in fact, turns and trusts
On the performance of a nonlinear vibration isolator consisting of axially loaded curved beams
No full textA desirable characteristic for nonlinear vibration isolators is a high static stiffness and a low dynamic stiffness. A curved beam is a possible candidate for this role provided that the amplitude of vibration about the static equilibrium position is sufficiently small. However, for large amplitude oscillations, the nonlinear dynamics may have a detrimental effect. This paper considers the force transmissibility of a single degree-of-freedom system where the stiffness element is a curved, axially loaded beam. The transmitted force is calculated by numerical time domain integration of the equations of motion. The exact force-deflection relation for the beam is used for the spring. By comparison, a frequency domain solution is sought using the Harmonic Balance (HB) method in which the system is modelled as a Duffing oscillator. It is shown that the HB and time domain solutions are in close agreement for small amplitudes of excitation and both predict advantageous performance of the nonlinear isolator compared with its equivalent linear counterpart. However, significant discrepancies occur between the two solutions for large excitation since the beam can no longer be approximated by a linear and a cubic stiffness. It is also strongly asymmetric – soft in compression but stiff in extreme extension– which gives rise to an impulse in the transmitted force in each fundamental period. This numerical problem is alleviated by inserting a linear spring in series with the beam isolator with a modest compromise in isolation performance at the excitation frequency

Roman Runner: Limes Germanicus I
No full textTim Brennan has ran more than 90 miles across The Netherlands in 19 hours as part of his major performance art project to trace the edge of the Roman Empire across the globe. He completed a solo run along the edges of the Roman Empire in Continental Europe, which he began at 3am on Saturday (August 24) taking the road east from Katwijk- Aan-Zee, on the edge of the North Sea to Herwen-De-Bijland, near the German border and the Black Sea, known as the Lower Germanic Limes (frontier)
