Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F Q: Was it then that you left Nigeria? E I: No. I left in two-thousand and two because, when I moved out of Kaduna, I had to stay over in the university campus —which is the Montebello University— where my Internet café… I was running the Internet café. So, that was where the business was… I shot home from Kaduna in the mornings over there to Zaria, and the close of the business for the day. I also shot over… go over back to Kaduna. So while I moved my family, I rented a house in Zaria —which was the university community, the city where the university is—. So, in two-thousand and two… There has been a sustained process whereby the Muslim students usually win the student annual elections; they have always held all the positions: the president, the secretary, finance… all the positions they take over. And… when I came in, I started running the Internet café. I had good patrons… I was getting good patrons because often internet cafés… well, I was doing well and I had good people working with me —and working for me—. But on that time we now sort of had you know, meetings. There was meetings you know, church groups, but meetings amongst the students who were Christians at least… the kind of getting together to be together and talking about matters that affects Christians in the campus. So, it happened that in one of the… within those times we now floated a fellowship and, at that fellowship, it was when we started… I also introduced ideas about how to really, you know, offset the imbalance and the idea was, at least, to be more involved… the students getting more involved —at least getting into good positions— so that that would actually change the imbalance or the status quo. Then, I promised them to provide the assistance needed —well, financially the way that I can—: the posters, I undertook the posters; I sponsored one of the students, a Christian. I saw to it that, you know, the students got good following for him, doing a bit of… kind of, good publicity. And that actually was able to… the votes tilted when the election came: it was in favour of this Christian boy, and he got elected. When the Muslims —as soon as that— saw that they had actually lost grounds, they objected and attacked the voting group, some of them who were Christians… came down on the students. And it was widely reported in the papers and in the media because about fifty students got killed and some hospitalised; a lot of girls were raped, Christian girls were raped and some had serious injuries, you know, fatal injuries and were admitted in hospitals. They came down my end, but I was lucky to get a tip-off one of the Muslim boys who usually patronised me and he said his conscience tells him that he wouldn’t be happy if he allows me fall into their hands. So he forewarned me that, at this time, this is what is going to happen; I shouldn’t come out to the business —to the internet café—; I must leave that city at once because the whole target is that, if they get to me —and that boy who won—, automatically they have broken our base. So, when they got to the internet café, we were locked, you know, we were closed. And they tattered the place because it was me always using their container —a forty feet container, two forty feet and a twenty feet container— so it was all mashed together but I was paying for the long space to the school authorities. So I got the masts, [because usually we don’t have easy connection, so we build a hundred and twenty feet masts so we can get the line of connection into the… between the radio that I am using and the base station that supplies connectivity]. So, some of them climbed up to the masts, brought down the radio —you know, because usually we use the radio on the mast— and the antenna, destroying it; he hacked the keys out from the locks, went in there; virtually ransacked the whole place; took off computers and… they did so many things and the authorities, the law enforcement were nowhere. A lot of us called out… a lot of the students —Christian students who ran to safety— called out to the police and nobody came!

Title A name given to the resource Emeka Ikebuasi: Customs, Nigeria, Political Unrest, Stories, Refugee Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Nigeria; Description An account of the resource Emeka Ikebuasi from Nigeria describes the harrowing political events which led to his family coming to Cork as refugees. He talks, in depth, of his village upbringing in Nigeria and highlights village ceremonies, the telling of stories, witch doctors and holiday customs. Emeka was born in Kaduna State, Northern Nigeria, Africa. There were ten children in his family. The first two children came from his father’s first marriage. Emeka describes the village he grew up in as clustered, with neighbours living just a few metres from each other. They didn’t have toys but played street games like football and rolling tyres. They sang songs as the community gathered in the moonlight and the children played hide and seek. Their grandmother told them stories that carried moral themes. Emeka’s paternal grandfather was a tribal leader. Emeka recalls the story of his grandfather’s death: how someone with a grievance got a witch doctor to put a curse on him. Emeka talks about how African weddings are more traditional; how the families come together to prepare the food and palm wine and how certain dishes must be there for the wedding to be regarded as a proper wedding. The actual ceremony is the father of the bride presenting a glass of wine to his daughter who gives it to her future husband. Children received small gifts of money and clothes at Christmas. They might witness the slaughter of a goat or chicken for the meal. Festivities could last for three days. The family fled Kaduna in 2000 because of religious wars between Christians and Muslims and the introduction of Sharia Law. Their home was burnt down and the family circle moved to safety to other African states. Emeka describes the horror of people being murdered and corpses lying on the street for days. Emeka came to Ireland in 2002 after his business was destroyed in riots and his family was under threat. He describes coming to Cork via Dublin and staying in Glounthaune until he set up home in Carrigaline. There are a number of African shops and restaurants and Emeka describes all the different African states that are represented in Cork: How they all speak broken English to understand each other. The Cork Inter-Cultural Group was set up to help change negative perceptions of minority groups. Emeka outlines its many activities for children and adults and discusses the social and cultural gatherings he has been involved in. He comments on the care and support he received from Cork people. Emeka reflects on how safe Cork is and how he can wake up and ‘find his head where he left it’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com C.O'C: What was Gurranebraher like in the early days? K.O'C Well I remember my mother now and my aunt when they were young, they used to come up Gurranebraher for their walks, you know their walks of a Sunday, maybe their walks in the evening after school, and it was only countryside, all fields. And then I remember when we were very young my mother would take us up what’s Knocknaheeny now do you know Knocknaheeny up there and I can see her she’d be in the field knitting: they were all knitters: all the mothers were great knitters, the little jumpers and the little dresses because it was cheaper to knit. And we’d be jumping over the ditches going from one field to the other so you see that was countryside to me when I was young, and it’s all built up now, and this place was countryside to people sort of in my mothers area and era, and it’s all kind of built up now. But it was lovely when we came up and no matter where we went, what’s Churchfield now is all fields, so we’d be over around Churchfield and we’d have great laugh, there’d be little ponds and you’d be gathering up the grass, and you’d be putting it into the ponds so that the water would rise you know. Even Sun Valley Drive down there now that’s how we would used to go and come to school, it was all fields, there was one big, big slope and we’d be running up the slope and running down and running up the slope and you might be an hour or two late coming from school and you would be murdered because your dinner would be burnt in the oven or in the pot, but it was lovely. Then we used to go out Fairhill – that was all countryside – and farmers, it was all kind of farming land really: you’d be looking in at the cows grazing, and we used to go . . .

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com A.H.: I did. I’ll tell you the first experience about going abroad. One of the people I met when I moved to the Northside was a man called Kevin Gardner. Kevin and I became very close and we were always talking about slipping away out of Ireland, you see. I was only fourteen at this time, you see. Kevin was fifteen and a half. To tell you the truth, we ran away. We got a train from Cork up to Dublin —two kids— and we got a boat from Dublin to Liverpool. I remember because when we got off we went to a place called Lime Street Station in Liverpool. And we must have been noticeable. We must have stuck out because the next day the guards picked us up —my poor mother at the time God, and they sent us back to Ireland, you know. Needless to say I wasn’t too popular with the mother when I got back, you know? So I got the real taste for travelling then. And then, when I was seventeen, I said to my mother I’d like to spend some time with another distant relation who lived in London for about twenty-odd years at the time. So, I said I was going for a visit but, in actual fact —I was seventeen years of age— I got the Innisfallon at the time… we used to get it to Wales and get the train and I went to London but I didn’t stay… I met two Cork men at the time: Thomas Mulcahy and Seán O’Rourke from the Northside and we eh… they put me wide —so to speak— about getting flats. So I didn’t go and visit the cousin at all, because I knew there would be sort of restrictions on me. I wanted to be a free spirit at the time. But I spent the first five weeks in a place called Shepherds Bush and one of the lads said to me, like, you know, “what we have to do —because we had no place at the time— is go into the bus station in Shepherd’s Bush and they were wide because they had been there for a while— always pick the last bus in the station to sleep in because it would be last out in the morning”. It would be the furthest bus away, you see Noel, and many a night we were woken up at about three or four in the morning and told “get out!” and we’d be sleeping in benches until we got… N. O’S.: And how many other… would there have been other children or young people…? A.H.: There was five of us! I always remember there was three from Cork and two from the North of Ireland and we kind of… we stuck together because we were all Irish. We were very young at the time and I actually was working! I then… what happened is the boys said “to get a job now, like, this is where the Irish people hang out, in certain pubs” —there in London. And I met this man and they told me he was “the ganger man”. The ganger man at the time meant nothing to me. I soon picked up on all the slang words, so to speak, and I met this man called George Foley, who was a Cork man. George Foley, the first thing he says to me was “I’ll give you a start, but you’ll have to change two things: first” he says “you have to change your age, you’ll have to tell people you’re nineteen” —I was only seventeen for God’s sake — “Okay” I said, “what is the second thing”, he said “the second thing is you have to change your name” because everything was into the hand… this, that and the other… I learnt an awful lot, like, about how to get on as a young Irish person in London from people who had been there for twenty and thirty years. And I appreciated that. Now, it was during this time on a building site in London, I met a truck driver who used to deliver stuff to the site in what —at the time to me— was a very peculiar accent. And, as time went by, anyway, he told me his story. He was an Australian. Now, I had read about Australia, but I knew nothing about it… A.H.: I did.

O’S.: There’s not much life experience at that stage anyway… A.H.: No, it’s not, you see. Age is experience —which soon came along after that. And, eh… I had spent quite a while in London and I met a lot of Irish people —a lot of Cork people, in fact— and they had no intention of going nowhere, to be very honest with you. And that was their thing. I don’t blame these people, like. It’s just that me… I just had this thing that I wanted to go and see how the rest of the world was. I first landed then in South-East Asia before I went to Australia. I eventually got my visa to go to Australia in a place called “Australian house on the strand”. I got my little brown suitcases at the time… And I can remember very clearly —this actually happened to me— I got a train from Victoria and I was heading towards Heathrow airport and —there must be about eight million people in London— and I was sitting in the carriage and Noel’s —my brother’s— friend comes into the carriage and spots me… comes up to me —he was a man of about twenty-three, twenty-four at the time. He says “Where are you going?” Well I told a lie at the time, I said “Well, I’m actually going home”. “That’s great” he says, “they’ll be looking forward to see you!” But he looked at the tag on my bag and he says —and he hit the roof—, he says “does your family realise you’re going to Australia” you see? So I said “Ah, yeah! I told them”. He was very insistent in coming to the airport, so much so, I jumped off the train —I did! I actually jumped off the train to give him the slip and I got to the airport. But, you see, I wanted to stop over —I didn’t go straight to Australia—, and headed down to Singapore… Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Andy Hawkins: Australia, Culture, Celtic Tiger, Coal Quay, Holy Communion, Inishfallen, London Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Australia; London; Work; Description An account of the resource Andy Hawkins was born in The Marsh and lived there until he was 7 when his family moved to Mayfield. He was the youngest of nine. He went to St Francis School. His father ran a small carpentry business in The Marsh. His father died when Andy was young and his mother died in February 1979. Andy went to London at 17 and to Australia at 19 where he lived for 30 years. His wife Bernadette is from Cork. His two children were born in Australia and still live there. When he was seven they moved to Mayfield and he remembers the novelty of having a bath and developing an interest in wildlife and in breeding birds. He describes how he went to Ross’s Wood and on fishing trips with his dog Buster. His got his first pair of long trousers for his first Holy Communion. A family friend offered the ‘communion breakfast’ which was the norm back then. Soccer was a big interest for him. He describes, with excitement, the big adventure it was going to games and travelling out of Cork for a match. A big treat was getting his 2 and 6 pocket money on a Saturday morning so he could spend it on watching Cowboy films at the cinema where “who is the boy” was an important question. Andy recalls a local man called Seanie Downey who was a boxer in the Irish Army and who represented Ireland in gymnastics. He talks also of another well known local figure called John Walsh who sold bundles of sticks and give him donkey rides along the Coal Quay. Andy’s brother kept a pigeon loft and Andy earned thruppence to clean it out. He was fascinated that the birds returned ‘for their dinner.’ They kept a garden and his mother taught him about growing fruit and vegetables. His mother became a widow in her 40s. In those days women never remarried. When Andy was 14 he ran away to London with a childhood friend. They were picked up by police and sent home. He left for London at 17 on the Inishfallen and gives detailed description about his arrival in London, sleeping rough, getting work on building sites and his dream to go to Australia. At 19 he left for Australia via Singapore. His first job in Perth was in a foundry. He hitchhiked to other towns and took the Indian Pacific train to Adelaide to avoid being conscripted. He spent time in Sydney and Perth and describes with humour some of the unusual jobs he had: working with horses and being the driver for an alcoholic railway manager. He recounts how his saving grace in Australia was the fact that he could play music. He started traditional music sessions in pubs in Perth and it was a great scene. Andy describes coming back to live in Cork in May 2000. It was more complicated and expensive to get accommodation and services than in Australia. When he left Ireland was more conservative so he wasn’t prepared for how less subservient people were and how they discussed their sex lives openly at work. There was a sense that Ireland had made a sudden jump into the Celtic Tiger. Andy noticed how much more money young people had and how much beer they drank. He felt the community spirit had gone and the new building developments didn’t take care of people’s community needs. Describes how he loves being back in Cork for the social life and knowing so many people and for the ‘ball hopping’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com M O'D: Em could you describe maybe some kind of a family celebration that would be kind of a I don't know, it could be a wedding it could be a funeral, it could be whatever, a typical celebration? B O D: Yeah well wedding for example, how would I describe it? Church weddings didn't really happen! As far as all the weddings in Slovakia, I didn't go to church wedding. Well that's probably because the way it was, registry office, out to the wedding, the same you have your white clothes, you have to have your red clothes in the middle of the night, you the bride has to change to red clothes, and she'll be dancing for another while, and they don't go on honeymoon until next morning, so that's the only difference probably in this em traditional folk, polka, and this kind of clarinet or how do you call them those breathing instruments. . . M O'D: Clarinet, tuba, saxophone, trumpets? B O D: Trumpets, that's it yeah that would be there, loads of button accordions, harmonicas, yeah traditional folk, that would be the wedding just going on for about a day, not like Irish weddings: they can go on forever. (Laughs). M O'D: So would there be a lot of dancing at the weddings? B O D: Mm, loads of dancing, yeah, loads of drinking, loads of food yeah! M O'D: Could you tell me about the food? What kind of food? B O D: What would you have? We would have the traditional food would be em its kind of a beef, and its kind of white cabbage cooked, and you get your dumplings with it, and you get your dumplings yeah, your white cabbage, and your beef, it's kind of diced beef, and the cabbages em well not sour how will I say it? It just has a distinctive taste, it's sweet and sour more beer taste out of it, yeah, I don't know what to compare it to, in here, white cabbage like from coleslaw, something like that. That's the traditional food, then you would have your pork chop kind of thing with potatoes and vegetables of the day, whatever it is, and the most traditional food which is not served at weddings would be again special cheese with special bacon and home made dumplings - you can't get that cheese anywhere else: it's called Binza - and you just do your dumplings in the water and put that over with your bacon. And you drink kind of sour milk with it, which is made in the mountains by all the shepherds and they are supposed to be very strong from it. Em it's kind of sour milk as well, more like natural yoghurt or something, yeah so that's the traditional food totally different, veg, brown and white bread and the rolls. Yeah a little bit similar but not the same. Desserts, desserts are lovely! Desserts, there's a poppy seed cake that's my favourite and we eat that for Christmas as well, poppy seed dumplings I would call them, or sweet dumplings with poppy seed. Beautiful. Yeah that's the food in Bulgaria. Eat fish for Christmas then (we don't eat meat) we celebrate on Christmas Eve, can't eat meat so we eat the fish, and then, with your potato or potato salad whatever you prefer. The big day is then when we can eat is the twenty fifth and sixth, as everywhere else we just stuff ourselves and go with the families. Yeah that's the Slovakian way of putting it!

Title A name given to the resource Balaska O’Donoghue: Bulgaria, Cork City, Food, Music, Slovakia, Travel, Celebrations Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork: Ireland: Slovakia; Bulgaria Description An account of the resource Balaska grew up in the central city area of Kosice , Slovakia until she was 19. Her father was Bulgarian and her mother Slovakian. She has one-half brother. She came to Cork because she met a Cork man whilst visiting London. She spent a lot of time as a child with her grandmother in Bulgaria. She was an independent child. Her mother was often sick. In the era of communism, they would go to after school to do their homework. The family had a lot of holidays, going to spas and skiing in the winter. In Bulgaria on holiday she was exposed to many different nationalities. There were no church weddings. They took place in a registry office. The bride wore white during the day and changed into red in the middle of the evening. Balaska describes traditional Slovakian food. They ate diced beef and a type of sour cabbage with dumplings. She mentions a cheese called Binza and a poppy seed dessert. The ate fish on Christmas Eve. She describes spending three months with her grandmother in Bulgaria where she learned the language. Half of the village where her father was from married foreigners so the children who visited were half Bulgarian and half other nationalities. Balaska came to Cork because she met a Cork man in London. Her first observations of Cork were how colourful the houses were. When she came first it rained every day for two months. She loved how small Cork was as a city and the people were very friendly. Since she came to Cork it has become more international. There are more people with darker skin.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com S.C: A bit like myself really, ok tell me about how did you end up coming to Ireland and to Cork, how did you decide on Cork? R.S: Well I came to Ireland first when I was seventeen, basically because Sean Doherty put the idea in my head that I should go over for a summer and go to the Willy Clancy Week, and go round a few of the festivals so I did that and I ended up staying a year and a half, and then I went back to Australia for two years, and I've been back ever since, so I've lived in Kerry, Macroom Co Cork, and I've been in Galway for three years and I, the reason I moved to Cork city is for years now I've wanted to study violin making, that's kind of what I've wanted to do, and a year ago I moved to Cork to study with a French man in Cork called Bertrand Gallen, study violin making so that's what I'm doing. S.C: You're actually making violins now at the moment! R.S: I am yeah. S.C: Em what are your memories of coming to Ireland, of arriving in Cork, what were your first impressions of the city and its people? R.S: I thought Cork was quite relaxed, a bit more like a village than a city, and em I much prefer it to Dublin, because it's a small town, I don't think of it as a city, and I find that it is very friendly because of that. (I much prefer it to Galway because Galway is so touristy and here that doesn't, it's not like that). S.C: It's kind of like a gateway to west Cork really, people only come to Cork, except for Shandon and other places in Cork or Blarney, they tend to go west of the county really and head for Bantry, places like Bantry and Glengariff, and . . . R.S: Exactly, you've got the whole of West Cork right there for you, you know it's beautiful, and down into Kerry, and it's not too far up to Clare, so you might be, you know if they moved Cork up the West coast a bit it would be better, it's a good spot yeah.

Title A name given to the resource Rob Stafford: Aboriginals, Australia, Fiddle, Racial Prejudice, Traditional music, Willy Clancy Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Austrailia; Description An account of the resource Rob grew up in Carrigullen, Perth, in Western Australia in a Eucalyptus forested area. He is the second eldest of five children. He has one brother and three sisters. Describes his neighbourhood as forested where the main source of income was growing apples and pears in the valleys. Sometimes temperatures could reach 45 degrees in the summer. Talks about how he grew up in a mainly Irish community in Perth. They were like a family to him and introduced him to Irish music. He was taught to play the fiddle by Sean Doherty from Charlestown, Co Mayo. Remembers fishing and going horse riding through the bush when he was a child. Relates a vivid memory from childhood; how the early pioneers ring barked Eucalyptus trees to kill them and how his father felled one of these skeleton trees. Describes in detail how he was taught to play the fiddle. Music was as much about the people as the music. He speaks of the enjoyment of camping in the bush and recalls the treat of spending two weeks with the Aboriginal community in North West Australia. Rob first came to Ireland when he was seventeen, to go to the Willy Clancy Week. He lived in Kerry, Macroom and Galway. He moved to Cork to study violin making with a French man called Bertrand Gallen. He loves the mixture of brilliant classical music as well as traditional music in Cork. He talks through the stages of making a violin.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

A.R: I remember working as a security officer, I had to, I was working near the airport in the Business Park, I was working in the gate, and there were cars arriving, and I was on the gate, and sometimes I had to tell the car to stop. And it would be more visual communication, because I was there in the booth, and I couldn’t speak with them, and I had to make a sign to stop, and the sign in Israel would be like putting your hand forward with your palm up and in front of the person and it would mean eh to stop but they did not understand this one and they just waved me hallo and the other way is to ask somebody what is the sign to make a sign to make it stop, and the other officer told me you take your index finger and putting it up and then it would mean just wait one moment, well like or the way people say hello here with the head it wouldn’t be like putting it up and down, it would be in Israel, if you meet somebody in the street and you don’t actually say hello just sign it with your head it would be like getting your head up and down while in here it would be like right and left kind of half way right and left, it took me time to understand this kind of thing as well, of course with language as well but I don’t the physical the visual . . .

Title A name given to the resource Avreimi Rot: Customs, Food, Israel, Religion, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland: Israel Description An account of the resource Avreimi grew up in Jerusalem, Israel in a strict orthodox community until he was 14 when he moved to a less religious neighbourhood. He came to Ireland when he was 21. His father became ill with multiple sclerosis when Avreimi was a child. From a young child his day was spent going to school, studying the bible and religious scripts. It was just his education and he enjoyed it. Avreimi relates how his family came out of the orthodox way of life. They had to live almost under cover for years. There were sections of Jerusalem that are strictly religious and defined by clothes and certain behaviours on Sabat. He describes the food and the symbolic meaning of food they ate on Religious festivals like Jewish New Year and Passover. Avreimi came to Ireland after doing national service. He did not want to participate in the war. He came to Ireland through an invite to work on an organic farm in Carrigaline. He was struck by how kind and friendly everyone was. Gives a humorous account of how he misunderstood the meaning of hand and body gestures. There are few Israelis in Ireland. His friends are from a range of cultures. Discusses how he sees that Ireland is politically insular and lacking awareness of world issues.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F.Q: Coming back to Cork, em had you any kind of funny things em happen when you arrived first, you know misunderstandings or? L.S.S: Em not, the only thing I remember was when I was in hospital having Charlotte my daughter in Finbarr’s, em the first time I was in hospital I was having a threatened miscarriage you know at twelve weeks, and I had to spend five, six days on a ward, and I do remember the whole religious thing hit me because nobody at that point you know when you go into a hospital the first thing they ask you after your name and address is your religion, and I kind of had a hard time getting my head around that, so I took a big deep breath and said I was Jewish, and the woman kind of looked at me strange. Then when I was on the ward I was in the middle bed of one side, so they were you know six bedded ward, and I was in the middle, and on Sunday morning they came and they curtained me off, and I thought what’s going on here, and you’d be scared back then because I was afraid that I was going to have a miscarriage, and em plus I was older than most people – I was thirty when I had my daughter so I was nervous, and they come in and they put all the curtains around me, and I say to the nurse what’s going on, and then they set up an altar at the end of the ward, and they obviously were going to serve Mass on a Sunday morning. And she said, and I said is there something wrong with me, is there a problem, is the doctor coming, is there something wrong; oh no she said, no, no, no, no, we’re just going to have Mass, and I said so why are you curtaining me off, oh we wouldn’t think it would be right for you to watch! And I remember thinking that was strange. And then the women on the ward, who were lovely, they were lovely women – we had such a good time together actually, except for the ones who were sad who might have had a miscarriage. But they were all passing around Holy Cards, and of course I thought this was hilarious, and they were passing me over, you know, would you like this one, or would you like this one, and sticking them into their bras and that kind of stuff you know; and I thought you know again that was very strange and funny. And then finally when I had Charlotte then, Thank God I didn’t have the miscarriage and I had her, but she was a very premature baby, and she was in the Special Care Unit in Finbarr’s em and a woman, so she wasn’t on the bed next to me, and a woman stopped me in the corridor one day, and I had her in August, and I was up on a farm before that so I was sitting out and I’m dark skinned anyway and I’d gone very tanned from the summer, so this woman stopped me on the ward, and she said oh you’re the one who had the miracle baby! And I said what do you mean the miracle baby? She was very premature, she was under four pounds, but she’s fine! And she said, no, no, no, you’re the black woman who had the white baby. (Laughs).

Title A name given to the resource Liz Steiner Scott: America, Customs, English market, Children's Games, Maternity, Religion, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork: Ireland: America: Religion: Description An account of the resource Liz was born into an upper middle class, liberal, Jewish family in 1948 in a suburb of New Jersey, USA. She has one brother and one sister. Her maternal grandparents lived close and were part of their family life. Her father commuted daily to New York City for work. Her grandparents were all immigrants into the States. Liz went to Vassar College, then a private women’s college in New York state. She and her husband came to Ireland in the 1970’s. She played a range of childhood games in her neighbourhood particularly a game called ‘swamp fox’ which involved playing in sewerage overflow. There is a good story about her grandmother who was a ‘flapper’ and party girl in the twenties and how they were all into show music, especially George Gershwin and Cole Porter. Divorce was unusual and difficult in the 1930s. Her grandmother had to travel to Nevada to get a ‘quickie’ divorce. She was a character. As a family they didn’t keep kosher, but were aware as children that their tradition and heritage was Jewish. Their diet contained some Jewish food like brisket, pickled herrings and matzos. Discusses how her parents started a reformed Jewish (non-Orthodox???) synagogue in a space shared by the Presbyterian church. They went there for Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah. Ethnic grouping was very important and socialising happened within your group. Liz was the only family member who was interested in observing Jewish religious holidays. Originally Liz and her husband came to Dublin in 1974 through a university research fellowship. They came to Cork in 1977 when her husband got a job at Crawford Art Gallery she just says “the Crawford” so she could mean the school??. They loved Ireland and were happy to be outside of the US because of their anti Vietnam war views. Their first impressions of Cork were of how grim it was and that there were lots of derelict buildings. Merchant’s Quay, for example, was all boarded up. Liz gives a very humorous account of giving birth to her daughter Charlotte in St Finbarrs and how religious the hospital was. There were lots of holy pictures and crucifixes. How they closed off her bed with a curtain when mass was said in the ward. There is a lot of good description about The English market and her Saturday morning ritual of going there to shop. Liz discusses the dwindling of the Jewish community in Cork and the closure of the orthodox synagogue for Jewish New Year because there aren’t enough people to open it. How traditional the rules are that insist on women sitting up stairs. Liz discusses the role of women in the synagogue and the differences between the Cork Orthodox community and the more liberal experience of her childhood.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

I.S: Actually it’s all circumstances: I never meant to take a stall in the Market, except I met French people who had a stall there previously who were making cheese, and they wanted to, they had a big stall, now it was in 1991 no ‘92. In ‘92 the English Market wasn’t the way it is now – it was getting not kind of not a very good reputation in Cork, and you know like the stall had been let down a bit, there was loads of empty stalls, and nobody wanted them, and those French people came in there, and I was laughing at them, and I said is not like the market in France, you know, this market isn’t going to bring you anything, that was the time. And eh and they said you’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see, you see this is going to change right. And I said right, ok and they brought me to share their stall and they were doing cheese at the time so I was going to do charcuterie which is a cooked meat, and pates, and cured meat, it’s usually based on pork meat, you know, so I said why not, and then I started importing those, and then I started making my own, and eh and then they left, but it was very, very hard at the beginning because there were very few people interested in the kind of product we were doing, and the condition of the market was actually was also difficult, you know. And then year by year it improved, and the other stall came in, and the other cheese stall came in, and then after a few years then we had the Café Centrale, and then I moved to a bigger stall, and that makes a big difference, and the market is now running so well, it is so bright there is a diversity of product, and still what makes it very special is the mixing of old and new Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Isabelle Sheridan: English Market, Food, Culture Subject The topic of the resource Life History Description An account of the resource Isabelle Sheridan is from a suburb outside Paris called Le Pleine de Mont Esson. She moved to Ireland in 1986 and eventually established the well-known charcuterie called ‘On the Pig’s Back’ in the English Market in Cork. She discusses her childhood in France, differences between France and Ireland, and some of the social nuances of running her market stall. Isabelle started ‘On the Pig’s Back’ artisan food company which began as a stall in The English Market in the early 1990s. Isabelle grew up in an apartment block in a village called La Plaine de Montesson, a suburb near Paris, where vegetables were grown and mushrooms were farmed underground. She has two younger sisters. Her father was an engineer and her mother was a painter. She remembers going to the opera and museums in Paris, as a treat, with her godmother. Isabelle is married with three children. Her husband is from Mayo. She states that there were fireworks everywhere on the 14th of July and in the area where Isabelle grew up they had a Village Day where local villages came together to host parades, barbecues, and have fireworks. They celebrated Saints Day, La Toussaint, around Halloween, which was a day of dedication for the dead when they went to the cemetery to visit family graves. At Christmas, they would all go to mass on the 24th, which was followed by a family meal at midnight. She made her communion twice. The boys and girls all wore the same rented white robes. Isabelle describes her love of food and cooking as a child. Her father taught her to identify cheese and cut it properly. She talks about the culture of French food and wine and how having dinner with others was a social occasion. Every house had a wine cellar. Her grandfather’s cellar held up to 800 bottles of wine. Isabelle came to Ireland as a purchaser in a new factory, initially for six months. Then, having met her husband, she stayed. Isabelle describes her wedding in Nantes and the differences in the civil ceremony experience as compared to Ireland. Isabelle offers a good description of the differences between French and Irish working practices. She highlights that French people commuting in and out of Paris would not have had the time, upon arriving home, for much else than cooking and eating dinner. In Ireland, she states there is enough time, upon arriving home, that you almost have a ‘second day’. Cork has a large French community which meets regularly mainly for children centred activity. Isabelle gives good detail on the development of The English Market, the types of traders and the food stalls available there and how she set up her own charcuterie stall. She began importing French food and eventually set up the well-known brand ‘On the Pig’s back’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com J.M: OK, so could you tell me Marcus in what ways do Argentinean people differ from Irish people? M.B: OK Argentinean people are quite aggressive, em we say things when we, you know, that’s one big difference as well here when I came, everybody was polite, thank you was the word, and sorry it’s like, and you’d constantly hear people saying sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, apologising many, many, many, many times, and the same with thank you, and politeness in general; in Argentina, it’s not that we are not polite we are but, it’s not so kind of constant, you know if we don’t like something, we are going to say it really, really say it loud, and you’ve got to be prepared for it, I suppose we are very direct. Argentinean people have a reputation for being very arrogant, you know I suppose because Argentina as such is a country that from the whole lot of countries in Europe has the biggest influence of European culture in it, so they feel that they are a cousin of Europe which makes them at a higher level than the rest, or at least that’s a feeling in if you want to put it into words, I don’t know an idea of mine [I don’t think these people actually think this just like that] but I mean still the arrogance that is so characteristic is there. That’s something about Argentinean people, we are very open and extrovert I suppose Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Marcus Bale: Argentina, Alcohol, Buenos Aires, Culture, Folklore, Hanukah, Irish Literature, Jews, Passover, Dance, Drink Culture. Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork Description An account of the resource Marcus describes his childhood in Belgrano, Buenos Aires, Argentina and his subsequent move to Ireland. Subjects covered include Marcus’s Jewish upbringing, how he came to live in Ireland, cultural differences between Argentina and Ireland, as well as to his involvement in acting. Marcus grew up in Belgrano, Buenos Aires, a densely populated area of Argentina. He came from an upper middle class Jewish family and had three sisters. His two grandmothers came from Lebanon and Syria. He lived in an urban area and as a child was more interested in indoor activity such as reading and playing board games. Where he lived children tended not to play in the street due to the dangers of urban traffic, smoke, and noise pollution. Marcus discusses how his family were more ‘“conservative’” Jewish, which he characterises as falling between Liberal and Orthodox Judaism. They met at his grandfather’s house for Jewish New Year, Passover and Hanukah. Marcus came to Ireland due to his interest in early Irish literature, Celtic stories, and Irish folklore. He met Dr Diarmuid ÓO Giolláin from the Department of Folklore and Ethnology, University College, Cork, in Argentina and came to study here on the encouragement from of lecturers of European medieval literature within the Classical Studies programme he attended in college. He highlights the difficulties of his first year in Ireland: the culture shock, the drinking culture, and not knowing anyone from his own country. He didn’t understand English as spoken by Irish people and he relates some humorous stories of misunderstandings. According to Marcus, the weather was a big challenge. Marcus was used to temperatures of over 40 degrees and it took two years before he got used to the rain. He talks at length about the differences in diet and meal times between Ireland and Argentina which reflect the different climates. Marcus also discusses how Argentineans are more direct than the polite Irish. Irish people repeatedly say ‘sorry’ which is not common in his country. Marcus talks about his involvement in Irish fringe theatre and being a member of the Snatch Comedy Group. He mentions how avant-garde Argentinean theatre styles are in comparison to the more traditional style in Ireland. He explains how the small South American community has grown: how they meet up regularly and about the growing popularity of South American dances such as tango and salsa.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com M-A D I arrived in Cork then twenty-four hours late, and Seamus was working and I was basically exploring the City and getting lost and lost and lost because of the bridges, so I went from one bridge to another, and then I walked in the city not knowing where I was, then within that week I decided – we were living in the North Side at the time in St. Luke’s – and I kind of decided that I looked at the city from the South side, and I decided that’s grand, now I decided that I am going to walk from Sunday’s Well into St. Luke’s, and I didn’t realise that there was Blackpool in the middle, I thought I was going to be uphill, on a hill all the time, so I remember the steps, the famous steps of the old Fever Hospital, I remember them, because that was the only way to go back up the other side, so that would be my first memories.

Title A name given to the resource Marie-Annick Desplanques: Brittany, Breton, Coiffe, Crêperie, Foodways, France, Children's Games. Subject The topic of the resource Life History Description An account of the resource Marie-Annick Desplanques grew up in Brittany, west France. She moved about frequently as a child because her father worked on the railways. She discusses food, games, Christmas in France as well as moving to Ireland from Newfoundland and the development of Cork City between 1988 and 2004. Marie-Annick Desplanques spent her early childhood in Brittany, west France. She has three younger brothers, two of whom emigrated to England and Canada. Her father worked on the railways and she lived with her grandparents until she was five or six years old. After this, she moved around with her parents frequently: she mentions that she may have attended as many as twenty schools. Her earliest memory is of going with her grandmother to the ‘Lavoir’, in the local village to wash clothes, as well as going to the beach. She recounts various children’s games such as rolling tyres, a kind of skipping elastic game, and marbles. She remembers older women in Brittany that dressed in black and wore a ‘coiffe’, a traditional headdress that gave them difficulty getting in and out of cars. Her grandmother ran a shop that also kept wine under the table for customers who wished to stop in and chat. She recalls her grandfather telling stories as well as catching what he called ‘Japanese Chickens’ by putting glue on trees. The family diet would have been mainly fish, potatoes, and chicken. The village in which she lived would have been quite poor and Marie-Annick recalls getting an orange for Christmas as well as a wooden train made by her father. When asked about moving to Ireland, Marie-Annick discusses the close connection between Breton villages and Ireland. She discusses moving from Newfoundland, where she met her Irish husband, to Cork in 1988 and relates that her arrival in Cork was delayed by twenty-four hours because she was searched at Heathrow Airport due to her husband having a similar name to someone serving in Portlaoise prison. She mentions getting lost in Cork after her arrival, as well. Marie-Annick then observes that it was easy to make friends due to the fact that both she and her husband are musicians. She also discusses meeting with French people in Cork and makes mention of the creperie in French Church Street as well as Isabelle Sheridan’s stall in the English Market. She remarks on the growing ease of getting certain food ingredients as the city develops but relates some disappointment at the way the smaller community areas of the city are being built over in favour of bigger spaces. Marie-Annick Desplanques was the Research Director of the Cork Folklore Project from its inception in 1996 until 2010.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F.Q: Would they be boys and girls playing? N.H: Boys and girls, yeah, but you'd be all embarrassed then if your mother saw you being caught by a boy, you know, he'd bring you back to the den, and your mother would be at the door, and you'd be given out to, you'd be caught by the elbow in case you'd run away, and you'd be all embarrassed with the boys being around, em, that would be that game. And getting back to games of the house now, sure like our bedrooms then you'd get cardboard box for the dolls, we nearly all had a doll, and we'd get a toy for Christmas, so like during the Summer the doll would be broken, we'd make a paper doll, with newspaper, I often made a doll, a foot long with newspaper, and if you got brown paper it was a great novelty, because you could draw a face with the brown paper, whereas with the newspaper you could not make a face, you draw a face on the doll, and then there was a woman living near us who was a dress maker, and we’d knock at her, and we used to have her scourged, for old rags and bits of trimmings off off the things that she’d have, and you’d make clothes for the doll, then: scarves for the dolls, and we’d dress her up, and cardboard box then, and if you got enough stuff then you could make a little pillow and a little cover for it, and you’d be there for all hours of the morning, playing away, for all the kids in the area like, that was some of the games, and then you had the usual games I suppose, you’d have the game of picky, where you’d be, someone would get chalk then, and we used to get ropes and the street poles in the street, and you’d put them up the pole, you’d tie it, but like someone would like say there’s a man here along, and you’d say hey sir, lift up the rope for me please (the usual old slang) and the man would kind of sling it up, and he’d get up real high like and he’d pull it high tight in a noose, and then you’d have for hours, then like one would be on one side of the street, and the other side, you might have to stop maybe every hour and a half because a car would pass, that’s how little cars were on the road like, and eh, that would be kind of summery games, then and winter games then I suppose skipping, or release, jumping the steps, where we were living there were steps like; once I jumped the whole ten steps. . . F.Q: Gee! N.H: The whole ten together where I was living now there was, you’d go down the lane, there was one step and then there was a gap and then there was our house and there was four steps, (everybody could jump down the four steps and up the four steps, run and jump the whole four steps together) but meself and another fella in the area we jumped the whole ten steps together, from one top to the bottom, only two of us was able to do it!

Title A name given to the resource Noreen Hanover: Christmas, Childhood Games, Cinema, Ghost stories, Milk and Cake Shops, Pawnbrokers, St Fin Barre’s Cathedral, Working life, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork: Description An account of the resource Noreen grew up during the 1950s in Nicholas Church Place, off Cove Street. She says the house was a tenement house shared with a family who lived upstairs. She went to the South Presentation Convent School. Her father died when she was 10. She left school at 14 and worked for 11 years at the Cork Shoe Company until she got married. She remembers some of the shops in the area of Nicholas Street and Barrack Street. In one of them, a short-sighted old lady kept her money on the counter and used to have money stolen. There were a milk and cake shop, Ciste Milis. She talks in detail about the games she played as a child, including playing house. Girls could make dolls out of the newspaper; they would get remnants of material to clothe them. They also tied ropes high on street poles and swung on them. Indoors, they collected cuttings from newspapers and books and made scrapbooks. An outside ball game had a simple chant, which she quotes. Christmas presents were often modest, but the excitement was high. Her mother used to tell ghost stories to the local children, and Noreen remembers a story about a dead girl’s golden leg and a telling of the Babes in the Wood story. She and her siblings were washed in a big tub in front of the fire, while her mother cooked bacon and pigs’ feet (crubeens). She recalls the use of the pawn shops and her being afraid to be seen coming out of a pawnshop by her schoolmates. She talks about local character Andy Gaw. She remembers using the outside and indoor public baths, with swimming wear that was just regular underclothes, and running home by St Fin Barre’s cathedral, afraid of two stone angels whose trumpeting was said to herald the end of the world. She recalls the Polo [Polar] Ice Cream Company, and the huge ice cream wafers she could buy. In the Summer the family would go to Crosshaven or Youghal for inexpensive holidays. Personal entertainment could be had to pick blackberries, going picnicking with jam sandwiches, or going to the cinema. She tells how the pennies to go to the cinema were found by sweeping the floor or looking under a rock. After her father died, her mother went to work for a Jewish family, the Rosses. She describes her mother’s working life and way of raising the family. She lists the different meals eaten during the week. She remembers her grandmother visiting and singing Hey Diddle Diddle. At family gatherings, people would sing Alice Benbow [Sweet Alice Benbow, a.k.a Alice Benbolt] and other songs, of which she remembers the odd line. Her older sister would go to the cinema and then tell the other children in the family the stories of the films she had seen. She talks about moving to Ballyvolane after she got married, the community there and how Cork city has changed. She mentions going on holidays to Galway; sending the baggage up by train and hitching lifts up there. She used to go to dances in Cork and walk home safely early in the morning.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com J.M: OK. Could you elaborate a little bit about your family please? M.O'D: Well it’s a very small family compared to the average Irish family in that it was just basically from the time I was five just myself and my mother and father; em my mother and father wanted to have more kids, but my mother had had heart damage from having rheumatic fever as a child, so she wasn’t supposed to have anymore and they said she shouldn’t even adopt, so the three of us were very close, and fairly unusual kind of relationship – I didn’t call them mother and father – I called them by their names. And we did a lot of things together, and we were all interested in American traditional music, and went to a lot of music festivals together, and had a fairly unusual relationship, at least compared to my friends, it wasn’t the sort of parent and child kind of classic sort of separation, and my parents were very liberal and very open-minded and let me kind of pursue whatever I wanted, in an era when parents were not letting their children you know buy Mad magazine and Hollywood Movie Magazines - it was my little bit of money that I got every week and I could do whatever I wanted with it. J.M: We’ll come back to the subject of traditional music later, but could you tell me what type of events did you celebrate as a family? M.O'D: Well em we were not a religious family, but Christmas of course is always you know is a big thing, em I think my personal favourite holiday was Halloween, the chocolate as much as the dressing up, I’d say and that was an era when everybody went trick or treating, you literally went door to door, and you were meant to have a trick, you were meant to sing a song, or tell a joke or do something, em and that you know other than sort of personal you know people’s birthdays or anniversaries – my parents wedding anniversary or something like that – that was I don’t think, because we weren’t religious, there weren’t all those kind of things, and that was before I knew much about Ireland or anything to do with Irish culture, so Paddy’s Day did not figure, so.

Title A name given to the resource Mary O’Driscoll: America, Blackrock, Customs, Festivals, Fleadh, Fitzgerald’s Park, Immigration, Miltown Malbay, Poverty, Traditional Irish Music, Willie Clancy, Subject The topic of the resource Life History; Cork Description An account of the resource Mary at the time of this recording was the Cork Folklore Project's manager, She was born in Des Moines Iowa, in the United States and moved to Minneapolis, St. Paul, Minnesota when she was 8 years old. She had one sister who died when she was 10 years old when Mary was 5. They lived in an old Irish farmstead built by the Faro family from Waterford, which was rural and isolated. Her father was a Lawyer. Mary met her Blarney born husband [Sean] in America. She discusses the family being impoverished because of costly medical bills for her mother and sister. Although they didn’t have much money they had land and they grew their own vegetables and fruit. They were an unconventional family. Her parents were liberal and she had a lot of independence and freedom and called her parents by their names rather than Mom and Dad. They spent a lot of time together going to American traditional music festivals. She recalls Halloween as being her favourite festival when everyone went door to door trick or treating. On the 4th July they went to the park for a fireworks display and had a ‘regatta’ they had on their own ‘Loch Mac’ lake at their house. She and her husband moved to Cork because of the Irish music scene and Ireland’s proximity to the rest of Europe. She talks about how creativity is much more accepted in Ireland as a valid way to live your life. Mary describes her first visit to Cork and how she loved the people and their humour. She comments on the size of Cork and all the old beautiful buildings, laneways and parks. Mary discusses her family’s interest in American traditional music, old time Appalachian and Bluegrass music and how it led to her interest in Irish music. She learned to play the fiddle and ran an Irish radio programme in the United States for 10 years. She describes the standard of traditional music in Ireland being so much better than the United States; comments additionally on the affect of immigration from Ireland to the US on the music scene. People plan their year around going to music festivals in Ireland such as Miltown Malbay, The Willie Clancy Week and the all Ireland Fleadh. Her favourite is the Murphy festival in Wexford.

Em alright one thing I ask everyone, this sounds a bit odd or strange, but is there any superstitions, myths, legends, anecdotes, anything associated specifically with this building? JM Well there, there, there, there’s none that eh that we know of except of course we’ve heard the usual, that it’s haunted and so forth. But there is one thing that I can attest to and so can Lorraine eh who eh started basically I s -- I s-- I was the first personally I recruited the staff then and she was one of the first recruitees that we had and now she’s the administrator of the Centre. But when we were, when we were due to open to the public, we had a very strange eh, eh -- and I can absolutely attest to it myself, I’m a fairly sceptical individual in relation to paranormal and so forth but we came in, in one morning and there was a half-moon of eh Victorian pennies. Em the strange thing about this was that they were inside the locked door, so you have your door, and you have your glass doors and they’re both locked, and we have no idea how they got there and they were all dated you know eh they were all obviously Victorian but they don’t relate to any particular date in the history of the church and we’ve no idea how they got there, none of the-- no idea. So Lorraine would be, would be probably thinking that some ghost dropped them there or whatever but we just were, there was no break-in, no nothing, and they were just there in a in a in a semi-circle or half-moon.

At that time, it was built as a lecture hall, a concert hall and an assembly hall and it was built here on Emmet Place. Em it was designed by Sir John Benson and the building was actually a rebuild of the main exhibition hall at the 1852 National Exhibition in Cork. Em so it was kind of the design I suppose was moved from the National Exhibition and up on to Emmet Place and it was completed in 1855. Now it opened with a series of, actually funny -- funnily enough it unofficially opened with a series of local artists and musicians performing on the stage and em that was in the first number of months.

GH Well the Boole Library, the name of the Boole Library came from George Boole, the first professor of Mathematics in University College Cork. And eh this man, it is very fitting that his name was given to the new library in UCC in the eighties because his mathematical formulae have been the basis for modern computers like, for his algebra like has been the basis for a lot of like modern technology today and he’s a worldwide figure of world -- world renown. And he died I think at the age of forty-nine, a very early age, because he had walked from his home in Ballin-- Ballintemple eh into the college during a rainstorm and he developed pneumonia and he didn’t survive it, so he died very young, at a very young age. And then the Boole Library complex it, it, it took over the space that in the seventies had been -- and for the previous hundred years in UCC -- well I don’t know if it was actually active for the full hundred years but the area had been in use as the football pitch for a long, long time, the Quarry, and like in the old days, in the seventies you’d have your lunch in the old Rest and that used be a very -- it was a great place like, it was a great place like you’d see everybody and spotting people and seeing people and all the -- Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I suppose it was a, its kind of interesting thinking back to that point, it was like mid eighties in Cork, and its kind of interesting being in the middle of another deep recession now what’s happening and in Cork in the mid eighties most of the cultural organisations that we now have were actually founded like Corcadorca, ourselves the National Sculpture Factory, Blackwater Studios, you know they were all kind of founded in the late eighties, early nineties so four artists who were graduates of the Crawford College; Maud Cotter, Ailish O’Connell, Vivienne Roche and Danny McCarthy who were very well known sculptors were kind of looking for somewhere to work collectively. They had all been travelling abroad, doing their masters, they knew that the moment was right to have a collective facility ‘cause as we know working as artists is very isolating and they are generally on their own, in their studios so this building was identified, it was empty at the time, Civic Council were using it for storage of, those big hairy Christmas lights that used to be on Patrick Street, used to be in here on the floor. Astroturf, the possessions of people’s houses, who were repossessed, it was a real storage territory and they approached the city manager who was Joe McHugh at the time and Joe was very visionary actually, he decided to take a risk, yeah, and gave it to four artists on a long term lease to set up this organisation. And the Arts Council came in then, in 1989 and supported the organisation financially so really it was set up out of five artists, it was an artist lead initiative to look for kind of a building that would give them collective space to work in so they could begin to acquire collective equipment which they could never afford to have in your own studio and that would enable people to work large scale. So they were very visionary actually these four artists and they stayed involved the first few years, and then obviously the organisation grown quite a lot since then its gotten, you know we’ve adapted this building quite a lot, we’ve put in a new roof. This mezzanine that we are sitting in, is an award winning piece of architecture from Tom de Paor who worked with Robin Lee architect in the new entrance last year, so we are always layering new things onto the building. But I suppose something that we as an organisation are very protective is the fabric of the building actually, nothing that we’ve done has changed the building very much, we’ve enhanced it we would think, we’ve added things in but actually we could, if we were to vacate this building it wouldn’t change that much. You know we’ve put in this big door at the back and some new kind of equipment but our, our imprint is quite light and we respect the building’s capacity in that way. I suppose we are very excited to be in this building because it is a very distinctive building in Cork and its on a great site on a corner. Its also we would say we were one of the first buildings in docklands, in Cork docklands so its gives us a very kind of landmark position in the city. And we are also aware that the citizens in the city only get in occasionally ‘cause it is a work space that’s why nights like heritage night, culture night or when we do events for the film festival, they are important that the public get to come in actually and see what’s going on.

Could you tell me just a little bit about the heritage room or if there’s anything about the Heritage Room maybe, Carmel, if you wanted to start? CH Yeah, well this room now was [sound of mic being moved] eh always having artefacts especially about the life of Nano Nagle eh who was a wonderful woman from around Mallow, from Killavullen, who started teaching the poor in Cork in around 1750 and spent thirty years walking the streets also visiting all the people who were sick and poor in their homes and visiting the prisons. But she wanted to educate the poor children, the -- especially the Catholics who had no opportunity of going to school, so she rented little thatched houses. And the first school had thirty pupils, she sent her maid out to gather thirty girls and taught them reading by teaching them the Catechism and then taught them to work. Em gradually the number of schools increased, she had five for girls and two for boys in the city for thirty years and she just walked around and paid her s- teachers herself. She had inherited money from her family but also she had a famous uncle, Joseph Nagle, who was a lawyer, a Catholic lawyer, em who never married, so when he died in 1755 he left her a lot of money. She was thinking at the age of 57 that maybe -- how was the work going to continue if anything happened to her, so she was looking for sisters who would run the schools. So she actually brought the Ursuline Sisters to Cork and they lived in this very building for fifty years. After fifty years they moved out to Blackrock, and this property became the property of the Presentation Sisters. They had added buildings. Nano had built us a three-storey house for them which is the centre of this building. But they had begun having boarders and they had added this whole wing here facing the garden. Em -- okay.

Title A name given to the resource If the Walls Could Talk: Stories of Cork's Built Heritage (2013) Subject The topic of the resource Built Heritage: Description An account of the resource In 2013, the Cork Folklore Project was commissioned by Cork City Council as part of Cork Heritage Open Day to create a film exploring the relationship between some of Cork's most historic buildings and the people who use them. The project carried out a series of interviews with local historians, people associated with the buildings, and Cork residents (the interviews in this collection were carried out by Mark Wilkins), and drew on existing audio and video interviews. Interviews in this collection featured in the DVD discuss the Trinity Presbyterian Church, the National Sculpture Factory, the Custom House/Port of Cork, the Pavilion, the Masonic Hall, Triskel/Christchurch, Cork Vision Centre, South Presentation Convent, Elizabeth Fort, St. Fin Barre's Cathedral, UCC Crawford Observatory and Blackrock Castle Observatory. The overall built heritage project was continued throughout 2013 and 2014 in order to create an interview collection and DVD on the other buildings featured in Cork Heritage Open Day. Interviews about UCC Boole Library and Cork City Opera House, which were not featured in the first DVD, form part of this collection. The DVD was edited by Ian Stephenson, and featured music by Mark Wilkins and photography by Gráinne McGee. The project was co-ordinated by Mary O’Driscoll.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com M W Yeah, okay. One very, very, very last one that’s just occurred to me here, the actual position of the observatory on the campus? M H First of all you have to remember that the original campus was a lot smaller than what we now call Main Campus. And in fact Main Campus is a much, what we call Main Campus is only part of a much bigger patchwork now which extends right into you know the city centre in quite a few directions. So in the past, the university gradually starting from the small patch of ground, quite a large patch of ground, strictly speaking in its time, when Queen’s College Cork opened in 1849, a piece of ground and it built the main building on it and subsequently began to build, became the medical building but it gradually began to acquire lands around that perimeter to bring them out to what are the boundaries of Main Quad now; Western Road, Donovan’s Road, Gaol Walk and College Road. And this was one of the sites that they picked up on so there was a piece of flat ground up towards the, up beside the county Gaol and the Quarry, beside us, what was originally a lime kiln and a stone quarry beside it. And William Kirby Sullivan in picking off this land, decided it was a good place for the observatory to go, and you can’t see this piece of land without seeing it literally as a piece of higher ground with no buildings around it, all the streetscape, all the buildings around it, that are university buildings and all the streetscape beyond it, all absent, green fields, do you know flat ground so not only was there no light pollution to interfere with, to interfere with the astronomers, there was no heat pollution ‘cause rising heat causes waves that distort the view. That’s why they want, that’s why astronomers want to put astro-physicists, want to put instruments in space because of all that heat wobble of the visible light and also there were no buildings to interfere with the line of sight of the telescopes. So when they can, you know brought the view through into 360 and right down to the, to the environment, right down to the, right down to the horizon line, it was a low horizon so they had quite a long view, it was a good place. M W Okay. M H But as Queens College Cork grew and became U.C.C, and began erecting buildings on green around, it began to block out the view, and obviously interfere with the use of the telescope. So really you know by the First World War, the telescope was hemmed in. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Michael Holland: William Crawford, Crawford Observatory, Eoin O’Mahony Eoin The Pope O’Mahony, Alfred O’Rahilly, William Kirby Sullivan, UCC, University College Cork Subject The topic of the resource Cork's built Heritage Description An account of the resource Michael talks about the Crawford Observatory building, about the instruments it housed, and about the advancement of scientific knowledge. Michael is the curator of University College Cork. The Crawford Observatory was established on the campus in 1880. The astronomical equipment was supplied by the Dublin firm of Grubb. The university’s president, William Kirby Sullivan built links with the city’s business class, and William Crawford paid for the Grubb telescope. The observatory was used to teach students until 1914.He discusses the role of philanthropy in funding projects. He comments on the creation of electricity by the Cork Tramway Company, and how when the company was shut down in 1929 there was a campaign by Alfred O’Rahilly and Eoin The Pope O’Mahony to get compensation for the tram workers. He tells a story about the installation of a seismograph, which had to be moved after it was found that bus traffic nearby was giving false readings. He explains how the site for the observatory was originally chosen. This interview was conducted for the DVD If the Walls Could Talk.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com DR Ok, well the current Christchurch building that’s ya know here at the moment it was the third building on this site to the best of our knowledge. Eh it was built in the 1720’s, we think it was 1726 when it was completed and it was a Cork architect by the name of John Coltsman who was responsible for the building. Eh the only other projects we know he was definitely involved in were the current Southgate Bridge and the Old Northgate Bridge. Now we don’t know ya know what other projects he might have been involved in because despite being from Cork we haven’t actually managed to keep much information on him. Eh now even ya know back then sure it would have looked slightly different because the original design involved a tower. Now the tower was originally meant to go up to...I think it was 176 feet, eh but when they got to 130 they realised that it just wasn’t going to work, that it just wasn’t stable, because as everyone knows the word Cork comes from the Irish ‘Corcaigh’ ‘bog or marsh’ and back then a portion of Cork was still very boggy and marshy. So the Christchurch tower started to lean and there was a saying in Cork at that time ‘all to one side like Christchurch tower’ and many of the people living along eh what was then Christchurch lane would have obviously been concerned that the tower was going to collapse and take them with it. So in the 1820’s they got rid of the tower finally. Now the current church was Anglican Church of Ireland up until it was deconsecrated in 1978 and at that time, Cork city council offered to purchase it for 20,000 pounds and they also paid decided they’d throw in another 20,000 as you did for the organ. And it was then used for the as a home for the Cork archives Institute which eventually became the Cork City and County archives who are based up in Blackpool. So they left the building in 2005 and Triskel reached an agreement with Cork City Council to take over management of it and 4.8 million Euro was spent on the restoration.
