"Ian [Curtis] and I were getting to know each other – we both worked for different parts of the civil service. We were planning to do some music together but never told anyone in case people like Mark E Smith called it nepotism." www.theguardian.com/music/2026/j...
’Ian Curtis didn’t have a chance’: the Durutti Column on departed friends, Factory Records and fun with Morrissey

Thrilled to share that I'II be heading to the Isle of Lewis for a self-directed residency with The Bothy Project, based at Grinneabhat. This is an incredible opportunity for me. www.bothyproject.com/residencies/... #ArtistResidency #IsleOfLewis #Grinneabhat #BothyProject #FieldRecordings
I was at this gig (with @robertbaldock.bsky.social). The first half was a performance by Psychic TV - strangest double bill ever? The ACR set was definitely the release after the tension. So glad a half decent recording exists.

Happy 45th birthday. Vini Reilly’s 1980 masterpiece still feels like a quiet revolution. It’s music that rewires your pulse, erases the edges of the room, and still sounds as though it arrived from a slightly more beautiful parallel world.
#NovAudit Day 20 Steve Reich and Musicians, ‘Drumming’ Disc 3 of Nonesuch ‘Collected Works’ CD 💿 box set, a 🎁 for my last b’day from @robertbaldock.bsky.social which I’m slowly getting through. This version recorded 1987. I’m about to compare it with the Ictus + Synergy Vocals recording from 2002.

"Solar energy is anticipated to be the world’s main source of energy by 2050" hell yeah
Dr Paul Dorfman @drpauldorfman.bsky.social · 10mo ago#Solar becomes main source of electricity in the #EU for first time. More than half of the EU’s #electricity in the second quarter of 2025 came from #RenewableEnergy www.independent.co.uk/tech/solar-p...
Most of the buses of Luzern/Lucerne are trolleys, pulling power from overhead wires. The electricity for transit in #Switzerland comes largely from renewables. SBB, the national train network, gets 90% of its power from hydro (dams).
