Laurie Anderson to be the guest director of the Brighton Festival

This is great news. Usually she’s part of things that are away in the states and I have no chance of seeing them, but Brighton is really quite accessible for me. So I think this is a distinct possibility for getting along to some of the events.

The news from Nonsuch is here, and the Brighton Festival site is here.

Looks like there’s another module coming from Olegtron

Having got the first module for the Olegtron it seems that there’s more to come in the not too distant future as well. Apparently there’s a PWM module (pulse width modulation) coming as well. I’ll be keeping an eye out for that, and I’ll let you know when it’s available.

Laurie Anderson Wise Women on BBC Radio 6 Music

I’ve been listening to this show on and off since it was broadcast on Christmas day last year and it really is worth listening to. Not only are there some very interesting pieces that she’s included, but it gives you a rare insight into what sorts of music Laurie Anderson finds moving.

It’s easy enough to find on iPlayer Radio if you’re interested.

Say hello to the all new PalmSounds

If you don’t follow PalmSounds then you probably don’t know that I’ve been tinkering with it and I’ve now moved it over to WordPress. It’ll take a little while to get all sorted, there’s still a fair amount to do, but it’s a good start and it’s going to be much better once it’s fully up and running.
