“This is not your standard “How to restore” your VW Beetle book. It’s also not a workshop manual. Aside from a basic rundown on the differences between various bug models through the years, there is a section on some things you can do to preserve your bug. Mostly however, what I’ve done is reviewed all the things I did to my bugs
and put those ideas together as cheap, skillful, cheap, d.i.y, cheap means of enhancing your grocery getter’s performance and handling.”
Christina Engela, Bugspray

“It would be tedious to relate the Gradgrindian detail - economic, social and cultural (in the anthropological sense) - with which Scottish Screen implemented its industrial model during the thirteen years of its existence between 1997 and 2010. Collectively, the Scottish Screen website's policy guidelines and application forms for its innumerable schemes at every level of production and training constituted a manual for how to crush the life out of a creative project.”
Colin McArthur, Scottish Cinema Now
