Some unused macro shots (5DmkIII and EF100L) of vintage Meccano from recording of MECHANISM – while recording with a small 12volt fan for the library I started wondering what would happen if I plugged it into my modular synth, would CV have enough grunt to power a small electric motor? If so, what happens if I plug it into an LFO or a sequencer? hmmmm…

▶ two songs by Ibeyi

a great mix by Alex Humann, free download at Soundcloud

▶ Marc @ Disquiet: “I’ve begun compiling the above set, under the working title Selected Ambient Works Volume 3, as an imaginary sequel to Selected Ambient Works 85-92….”

▶ great to see the studio of Stefan Betke aka Pole – Pole at soundcloud

▶ patching under duress!?

Its my favourite Debussy quote: “Music is the silence between the notes” and similarly with film & great acting, the ‘action’ in drama is not in what is said but is in what is not said & how it isn’t said – the breaths, foley & still moments where the eyes betray the mind & transfer emotions directly to the audiences heart.
Accordingly it is fascinating to see a scene stripped of dialogue: A few silent men
