Why yes it is. A nice little BBC Micro Emulator running on my Android. How useful is it? Well, not very to be honest, but fun nevertheless.

Automating field recording
As part of my ongoing experimenting with Android and Tasker I decided to see if I could get tasker to make a recording every morning at a specific time and then send me a text to confirm it was done.
Well of course tasker is more than up to this and this morning it worked relatively well although I’m having a few problems with getting the file to play now, but I’m sure that’s just teething troubles. Once I’ve got that sorted I’ll start to post the recordings.
Mick Karn: Titles
I didn’t really get to listen to Mick’s albums last week, so I thought I’d remedy that this week, and I started with Titles. Mick Karn’s Titles
Having said that, the entire album shows a very high standard of musicianship and ranges from the almost pop like tracks like ‘Sensitive’, to quite experimental (if that is a valid term to use) pieces like ‘Tribal Dawn’.
It was great to go back and listen to this album again, and to recapture the feeling I had when I first listened to it all those years ago. To me it still sounds fresh and vibrant and it has a unique sound. In my view it’s well worth a listen.
