Forever fascinated by how things work and spending most of my days working on Soundscape https://scottish-tech-army.github.io/Soundscape-Android/. Music, family and geography with some clothes making thrown in.

The prophecy in Macbeth suggests that Stirling and Strathallan will be the seat of the next Labour leader. Starmer shall not be vanquished until Burnham would come to Dunsinane.

About 20 years ago I wrote a quick clock widget for our new BrightSign digital signage players. Mostly I worked on video and audio software, but having a clock was better than not having a clock. Most users moved on to HTML clocks, but everyone working on Match of the Day still watches it weekly!

A photo of a TV screen showing MOTD Behind the Scenes on iPlayer. There's a screen with a crappy looking digital clock mounted on top of a 2 by 2 grid of TVs showing football matches.

I've just spent a great couple of days at the OSM State of the Map Europe conference in sunny Dundee #sotmeu2025. It was my first SOTM and was so very, very good. Brilliantly well run with lots of fun extras which all amplified the feeling of community. So much generosity on display.

The image is a hand-drawn poster summarizing a "State of the Map Europe" 2025 event. The poster is divided into several sections, each addressing a different talk. These sections are demarcated by hand-drawn lines and titles. The overall color scheme is dominated by blues, reds, and whites. The style of the poster is informal, with illustrations, handwritten text, and a scrapbook-like feel. The main title, "State of the Map Europe," has next to it a picture of a penguin! The atmosphere feels collaborative, energetic, and community-focused. The poster conveys a sense of excitement and enthusiasm for open mapping, data accessibility, and community engagement. The top right corner indicates the date, "Friday 14th November 2025," and the illustrator, "Cara Rooney."

My folks are in to Aberdeen to see the tall ships today, and I hadn't realised that the Malcolm Miller was there - www.tallshipsaberdeen.com/news-hub/mal... I was lucky enough to sail on it when I was 17, from Portsmouth to Lorient, the Scilly Islands and Barry Island. Gail force 7 in the channel...

I'd like to give a big thanks to @protomaps.com for their fantastic work. Our open source Android port of Soundscape, the navigation and exploration app for visually impaired uses a protomaps server and it's reduced the cost to the supporting charities by a huge amount. github.com/Scottish-Tec...
