someone who's doing some things
This is a great Tom Baker story, and one that I needed to add to my collection. It’s part of a two story boxed set called “The Unit Files” as both of the stories feature UNIT quiet heavily. Great stuff though.
I so enjoy these earlier stories. They take their time to unfold and get going and there is much more emphasis on the science fiction.
Well worth a watch if you get the chance.
I got the boxed set of UFO (from the 70’s) for Christmas, and I started watching them tonight, but I wasn’t ready for just how 1970’s they’d be! Of course, you can’t judge a 1970’s production by today’s standards in anyway at all, it just isn’t fair, but it makes you realise what we take for granted in so many aspects of television.
Anyway, it’s a great show, and I love the theme tune too. As I watch them I’ll probably comment some more about the show. In fact, I probably won’t be able to help myself!
I’ve just finished listening to this McGann story. It’s actually a very good one, and Mary Shelley as a companion is still working well too.
I’ve never been much of a reader of biographies, but this one really got my attention. Having been a long time fan of Bill Nelson I did know a lot about him and his music, but the book brought it to life (of course he’s still alive so it would).
It was well worth the read and I might even buy his other book.
It’s given me a taste for reading other biographies too, which is handy as I have a real backlog of books to read.
Looking forward to getting this moving, other projects permitting of course.
This is an annual event where I see just how many albums out of the Wire’s top 50 I have bought or have listened to. I’ve not done too badly at all this year so far, and for the first time I’ve got the no.1 album in the Wire top 50 already! It’s Laurel Halo’s Quarantine, and it is a great album, of that there’s no doubt.
So overall I’ve not done too bad for 2012.
Sample sounds from an Arduino with no additional hardware running the Mozzi library.
I’ve been spending some time with the Mozzi synthesis library for Arduino, and it really is amazing! I had no idea that the arduino could do that kind of synthesis so well. I’m really impressed with it and now I’ve got loads of ideas for how to put it into practice.

Some more new (old) music from me that I still haven’t finished and now don’t intend to. This short collection of tracks is probably even less polished than the previous, but it is something I really liked the idea of, but just didn’t finish off in the end.
I hope you enjoy it. Just remember, it isn’t finished at all!
