Charlotte NC

March 14, 2011 @ 10:18 pm

Some recordings made in Charlotte NC on the morning of Saturday 12th March 2011, or in the words of 24 the following takes place between 9am and 10am. A walk between my hotel and the finishing line for a race (probably 5K, or 10K, I couldn't find out exactly) and some ambiance recorded outside The Mint Museum Uptown.

New Haven CT Rain on an aluminium roof…

March 7, 2011 @ 12:05 pm

My first morning...615am it hasn't stopped raining since I landed yesterday...the sound of rain hitting an aluminium roof, ice packed snow and an upturned canoe in the garden of where I'm staying in New Haven CT.

2010

December 20, 2010 @ 1:22 am

It's now the final few sentences of the last chapter, of what will be known as 2010 and I've spent this cold winters evening, a week before Christmas, listening back to some of the recordings I've made this year and thinking about what will, to me, soon become little more than a few distant memories.

My biggest realisation of this year is that it seems..too many people are now living their lives as if they're appearing on some reality TV show...too many intelligent people are apparently blind to what is and has been happening right under their noses...also puzzling is their lack of awareness at just how they're being cleverly manipulated...puppeteers being controlled by puppets...sad, funny and a cause for some concern.

We all need to continue to grow, creators of art...entertainment...those of us who want to push boundaries, share and learn, need to fight against those who seek to obstruct our futures and our growth and I sense that in many ways 2011 will be even more important to all of us.

So here's to our continued personal growth and greater wisdom in 2011!

I hope this recording reflects some of what I've learnt this year.

New York TV

July 14, 2008 @ 12:26 am

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 -

Houston Cityscape

March 20, 2008 @ 10:01 pm

A recording taken on a roof terrace of the George R Brown Conference Cent(e)r(e) in Houston. The low rumble of the city, building works and the distant wail of a police car.

I'm not going to see a lot of this place which is a real shame...

Alexandria, Louisiana

March 19, 2008 @ 1:18 pm

So my flight to Houston was eventually diverted to Alexandria due to bad weather and a severe lack of fuel! So, Alexandria 'International' Airport is very small and the 'International' bit, is pushing it slightly. Anyway sat watching rubbish TV in the departure lounge as the 7.30am flight I should be on is now leaving at 10am.....The panel discussion I'm taking part in at USITT Conference is at midday.....mmmmmmmm
