Today's post - Analogue Skill 004: become a regular. Esp. appropriate on day of #LockdownEasing in England. We were retreating from the #publicrealm even before the pandemic. Time to return, rebuild our social capital and be less phone-dependent eiffelover.com/analogue-skill…

Written up my third #analogueskill for the day: printing out photos of friends. This gets into how our memories are used as content that keeps us glued to our screens. And what happens when the backup fails #photography #polaroid #friendship #inconvenience eiffelover.com/analogue-skill…

I'm hatching plans to run my first Studio Eiffel Over, a week-long creative exploration of one my Eiffel Over themes. Looking for #creativespace in #Brsitol. The first one I'm hoping to run this summer on #analogueskills. Follow AnalogueSkills for details.

I'm after some domain advice. I'm putting together a new profile website to gather all my writing, videos, talks etc. Any thoughts on what's better - .info or .uk
