I realise that this album came out last year, but I only just gave it a listen, and I’ve been really impressed by it. It’s some great synth pop, and I love synth pop! In fact, some of the sounds and the song construction is very reminiscent of the last Yazoo album. I think it’s a great album and I expect to be listening to it for some time to come.

And so the Pebble app store arrives
It just makes me want another Pebble even worse than before, but I know I should wait a few months and see what, if anything, Apple come up with and if it’s worth getting excited about.
Blake’s 7: The Liberator Chronicles 2 – The Magnificent Four
This is a great story. A true Blake’s 7 original, just like the episodes. I really enjoyed it even though I’ve heard it before, and of course it’s made me think that I should listen to more of the back catalogue now.
I think I probably will.
A bit of business buzzword fun
I made this little applet in processing and I thought it might be fun. You can find it here.
Update to the littleBits videos page
I’ve added some new videos to this page if you’re interested in what I’m doing with this lovely little modular kit.
4th Doctor: The King of Sontar
I was really looking forward to this audiobook arriving, so when it became available I downloaded it straight away and listened to it. Initially I was a little disappointed I have to say, I think that in the first half the story meandered a bit, but after that it got straight to it and headed strongly in the direction of being a solid Sontaran story.
Overall it was a good start to the new 4th Doctor season. Good to have Leela back again, and to get a twist on the Sontaran story. I’m looking forward to what’s next.
Sculpture playing live at the Fish Police album launch
I’ve been meaning to post this video for ages now. I thought that Sculpture gave one of the most interesting performances I’ve seen in a long time. It was inventive and mesmerizing and I really hope I get the opportunity of seeing them again.
iOS Automation and Workflow resources page
It’s only a start, but I’ve published my iOS automation and resource page here. There’s only a couple of links there at the moment, but both of those are very useful indeed, and I expect to add more over time.
And a bit more with the littleBits synth
It’s a little bit random
Time to listen to some Blake’s 7
After the excellent ‘Fractures’ I think it’s time to go back and listen to some more of Big Finish’s Blake’s 7 output. I seem to have quite a lot of it, so I think I’ll start with ‘Warship’.
