So there was resound which I organised an event at and played at, then I had a second Daughter, then a gig in London was cancelled, then I lost a friend, then my job changed and then i played at someone else's night in Falmouth at the Jacobs.

just a quick note to say I have fixed this page.

looks like all but the images are back now after a couple of months trying. Once the images are up, I have lots to post.

! ! ERROR ERROR ! !
I've managed to get the site up looking sparse empty and blindingly white. Please excuse this and i'll get it sorted.

Note...
Don't ever search for the 1st transparent.gif on google images and upload it as your "logo" within a Drupal installation. unless you wan't to take the site out.

Second long piece, but more importantly a 'sound' page listing all downloadable full length pieces is now available. It has a feed also [podcast].

Just setting up a couple of new functions on this site to allow full length experiments to be listed somewhere for easy access. This is the first one - filed under finprov.


void setup() {
pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(13, LOW);
delay(60000);
}

I was trying to decide which 60 seconds of drone to submit to a compilation. I had got it down to four 60 second outtakes contending for submission in the final. These came from 2 pieces:

Broken Brick Cup by A. C. Femur [2007]
alliwantfor..isyou by Four Black Squares (ft.m carey) [2002]

I settled for "Broken Brick Cup - outtake f" and it has now been submitted.

A section of This Way Tipler was played last night on Through the looking glass last night (about 19 mins in). Through the looking glass is a weekly show (Thursday @ 7-8pm) on Sound Art Radio that has recently been mentioned in the Guardian. Last nights show is available here.
