The SoundLab Play Space Chat Zone

I love being involved in working with Heart n Soul on events like the Play Space. The downside for me is that I don’t get to be a visitor or an audience member at these events and I don’t get to participate in that way. It’s a shame as there’s always stuff going on that I miss, and with the Play Space there was huge amount that I missed.

One area I would’ve really like to have been at was the Chat Zone where Justin talked to some really interesting people on a range of topics around accessible music. I think it was recorded and I’d love to hear that recording if possible.

If I can get my hands on it I may even get it posted somewhere too.

Thanks to everyone who supported my Movember campaign

I really really appreciate the support from everyone who contributed to my campaign this year. Whilst I didn’t hit my goal in the end, I didn’t do too badly, so I’m glad that I did it again this year. That’s four years on the go for me and Movember.

Will I do it next year? Who knows, we’ll just have to wait and see. Will I keep the moustache? Maybe …

So, here we are, in December

I know that it’s stupid to say stuff like “I can’t believe it’s December already”, but that’s how it feels. I suppose it’s because November (Movember) has really flown by, especially with all the focus on the SoundLab Play Space event. That really did take up a huge amount of time and effort. It was worth it though. Completely worth it.

So December, Christmas, 2015 coming to a close and all that Jazz. I’ve still got a few things I’d like to get done this month. One of which is getting more out on how to use conductive ink pads with music apps, but there are a few other project that I hope to come back to this month too.

Anyway, for now, happy December.
