really interested in your paper Marie, my suspicion is that by looking at previous computing models & software versions may enable better knowledge of acoustics; I’m thinking of curtis roads, miller puckette’s, etc math being at the basis of maxmsp/pd.

This is an excellent festival. Can't wait until November!

Suzanne Harrington: The UK's treatment of Graham Linehan and Kneecap is a study in contrasts "Unlike Linehan, in court charged with harassing a trans teenager and smashing their phone (this was before he urged his online followers to physically attack trans people), Mo Chara’s ‘terrorist’ cha...

This is good;

"Minister of Hypocrisy Wes Streeting"

"So there we have it. One Irish person is charged with ‘terrorism’ in a UK court for speaking out against violence, while another Irish person is being held up as a victim of unfree speech for speaking out in favour of violence."

it’s completely bizarre, especially when st george, himself from Syrian Palestine is also a recognised saint in Palestine, & the flag is very nearly the same as Georgia …

yikes…2te Liga, oder schon kreisliga mannschaften?? I’d never heard of those teams :-/

There is no other winter programme like this ANYWHERE in the UK. A feast of top tier masters of their craft alongside some of the most exciting modern artists performing today. Its a line up full of deep variety, exciting ideas & maverick methods. Tickets from only £15!

An opera I know well (all three parts); I was Korrepetitor at Staatstheater in Bern & conducted rehearsals with the singers &, at times, with the (front) orchestra back in… 2006? Lots of fun, & people on stage, even more folks in the production you’re about to see by the looks of it! viel vergnügen!

August Noise Upstairs!

we can’t wait, we’ve already booked the hotel 😃!!

the number of people who are saying this (re your reform point) is growing; by the time labour has their conference, i’d have thought there’d be a good argument to replace starmer. The sheer levels of dissonance with public opinion are off the scale

We loved Boundaries last year, & would definitely return; we were talking about the performances & while event for long after. With Crowdfunding: try it! it will depend on how much you’re trying to raise tho. Folks who crowdfunded projects did tell me it’s a lot of work without guaranteed success…

July Noise Upstairs!

Under the Butthole

Far From The Butthole Crowd

Saturday Night & Sunday Butthole (…I think we’ve all been there)

Butthole for Godot…

…this could continue

JUNE NOISE UPSTAIRS NEXT WEEK!

“…for the little guy” 😂🤣
surely by now, you are the king of irony!!
