Busy

Busy week, made a new mix, worked from home for a day to wait for a boiler engineer to come round, suck his teeth, and say, "nowt to do with us mate, you'll have to go back to the insurance people, they don't know who to send out see, they aren't technical at the office like," recorded a radio show and played said mix, et cetera.

Spotted

Tractor driving through rush hour traffic in Bristol city centre, 9am Monday morning. Wasn't quick enough with the camera. Not that the trater was too fast of course but a bus got in the way.

Psychoacoustic Maps of Milton Keynes

Found on an old Bldg Blog post. Timon Botez says, "Psychoacoustic Maps of Milton Keynes explore ways of translating visual compositions into sound environments. The psychoacoustic maps are not functional, but they use the geometrical forms of the original city map as a basis for artistic expression."
The links in the post are dead, the site has moved to here and you can find all of the text, images, audio and movies referenced there. Well worth a listen if you are interested in generative composition. I'm enjoying FridayEvening.mp3 right now [9min 12MB] very otherworldly, makes Milton Keynes sound even more desolate than Bill Bryson did, which is quite a feat.
