Things Get Weird With Tomás Ford
I’ve had a great time on this second patch of four days at Paper Mountain. I had a bunch of Life Stuff and a weeks’ holiday down south in between last time I was here and now, which meant that although I’d planned to do a bunch more work on the songs that made upContinue reading “Things Get Weird With Tomás Ford”
What is a response
How do you go from drag mime to this? To be honest I can’t consciously pinpoint the exact trajectory. After a slow start, I decided that when you can’t generate something from within, you can generate it from without – all roads lead to Rome after all. I started by shopping. After trying on aContinue reading “What is a response”
It’s all coming back
You have to be in the mood to make art. Don’t believe all those people that say “Oh you just have to chip away at it”. Sometimes nothing will come, and you just have to accept that. Sometimes that’s ok, and that is all you need to suddenly have everything come at once. On theContinue reading “It’s all coming back”
Dressing up slowing down
I have been thinking about speed Pace That the smallest detail can make the biggest difference Sometimes less demands more How can that small thing have the most impact How can you put 1000% into the most minute idea or feeling to make it amplified rest is a myth Move with intention Simplify and clarifyContinue reading “Dressing up slowing down”

This residency has enabled me to record a lot of music and also given me the time to attend to various admin tasks that will enable me to release it. I have newContinue reading “cr0nes: meditations on clouds – bandcamp and youtube”
cr0nes: clouds in order by colour (two short poems)
Clouds are not as random as they seem. Affected (created!) by environmental information – pressure, moisture, movement, air, heat, earth interactions. Interruptions. Clouds, limited by their atmospheric container. Coloured by light. Unknowable in their entirety. Music is not as improvised as it seems. Created (affected!) by corporal information – pressure, timbre, movement, air, heat, mindContinue reading “cr0nes: clouds in order by colour (two short poems)”
cr0nes: Meditation on clouds – day 1
It is the creative potential itself in human beings that is the image of God. – Mary Daly The music maundered in about 11pm, dressed as a meditation on clouds, in multiple parts. A piece of music that had also been clamouring for my attention for a number of weeks was captured in a soundContinue reading “cr0nes: Meditation on clouds – day 1”
cr0nes: final piece ready for stream
Pre-performance: After some rehearsal, my performance piece is ready to stream. As with all improvised music and live performance, I can be as ready as I want to be, but things will change and shift last minute, and what I end up performing may be entirely different to the recording I initially made. I choseContinue reading “cr0nes: final piece ready for stream”
