Merry-Go-Round (Carousel)

Posted by listenhear on 30th July 2008

Once again the BBC weather forecast is way of the mark…..very warm and sunny, not the promised clouds and rain, it happens all the time now…

The Merry-Go-Round (Carousel) on Brighton seafront is one of the few traditional seaside rides left in the town. Always popular. The organ goes horribly wrong around 3′04″.

New York TV

Posted by listenhear on 14th July 2008

When I was over in New York a couple of months ago I spent a few days in my hotel bed (unsuccessfully) trying to recover from a nasty flu like thing. I had nothing much to do except read, sneeze, cough, listen to the aircon and channel hop. I was captivated by some of the weird Christian religious programmes being shown. I created this piece using some samples from one of these, the premise being that you send the TV station some money and miraculously all your problems are solved….you see it seems that God works like this…..you make some TV Pastor and his crony’s rich and then he’ll/she’ll sort out your problems in return. It’s strange that they never taught me that God was a media savvy, capitalist con artist at Sunday School. Surely, preying on people, in such a way, when they’re so obviously desperate and at such a low point in their lives is quite possibly the cruelest, most cynical thing, one human being can do to another. If I was a Christian I would surely believe that this could only be the work of the devil….scary stuff.

Of course, most of this is just my humble opinion and we all have the right to believe what we want to believe but, I’m convinced that the following are better beneficiaries for your money -
