Most of my academic writing is me making up words that sound like they should be words and then discovering they are not words. Heartened to find out that 'contradictorily' is in fact a real word, however.

Bandcamp Friday and I can neither afford to pay current vinyl prices nor afford to fix my broken tape player. Oh well, at least the worlds not literally on fire.

Shameless self promotion of a release you all overlooked: vertical-music.bandcamp.com/album/santa-vi… A live street performance of drone music on a cheap battery powered synthesiser whilst dressed as Santa on Xmas day in Brighton, processed via a spectral resonator.

Is there any music sites/blogs at all that write about sound art, apart from myself??? I know a closer listen and Brad E. Rose / Foxy Digitalis do, along with everything else they cover. Are there any others??? I'd love to know...

My twitter feed is now basically just a mixture of irrational Terfs and people beating up Just Stop Oil activists, two of the worst examples of humanity. It's all a little depressing.

popped along to a modular synth gig happening round the corner. Decided I would only stay if it wasn’t comprised entirely of very serious white 45 year old men. I didn’t stay.

Did a track for the new @CastlesInSpace Participation album. Been working on the first full release of this new project for a while now, and it's getting pretty close. cissublibrary.bandcamp.com/album/particip…

Finished the new album. This was probably the hardest to make - but 90% of the work was in figuring out how to present the concept without being unethical / exploitative. For lack of a better description, it 'sounds like that famous Gavin Bryars piece if it was made by Eleh'.

Reminder that I am available for children's parties, wakes, Bar Mitzvah's, etc. (also will do performance art nights or punk dive shows). youtube.com/watch?v=veEeqq…

Finished new piece. I never make any money so can't pay, but does anyone WANT to do some light mix/master/eq-tweaking of a long-form sound-art piece? I won't even promise you exposure, but if your in South-East UK I'll buy you a beer...

In the studio, recording melodica, tongue drum, and singing bowls for the new Be Kind Cadaver release. This is turning out to be a really, really special / strange project.
