2025 looking a little thin. Not surprising considering the financial uncertainty in Scottish Theatre - but if anyone would like to chat to a composer/sound designer for their projects in the UK, I'd love to meet new people and make new things! jimharbourne.com

Congratulations to all who finally got their Creative Scotland funding today. But particular commiserations to those who didn't - a very long wait for disappointing news.

4 pieces by RUTH WOLF-REHFELDT (1932-2024). Wolf-Rehfeldt's typewritten poetry set the bar for excellence. Seek her work out, every piece is architectural marvel.

One month until I move to Melrose! Edinburgh, the last 19 years have been swell. But you're only an hour away.

The Myth of the Singular Moment (Deluxe Edition) Jim Harbourne Β· Album Β· 2018 Β· 12 songs

Well, I have "The Myth of the Singular Moment" - a two-hander play with songs about parallel worlds, impossible choices and quantum immortality... the songs are on Spotify. It'd be lovely to take it about the place!

I would love such a thing to exist! (Don't have a theatre, but do have stuff to put in 'em!)

Pantheon by Hamish Steele is a very enjoyable graphic-novel romp through the Egyptian creation myths. Light-hearted but puts the stories across really well.

Despite X's best efforts, it is in fact Bluesky that owns the libs.

As a Canto Ostinato obsessive, I completely understand this piece and love it.

I am here! I've been pretty quiet over on the other one for a while now, but dipping my toe in here feels warm and familiar. Like the other one used to!
