Miserable out there today. If you don’t have to go anywhere, sofa surf & enjoy a trio of classic films on BBC2 starting with Laura, then this afternoon we have The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp, followed by I Know Where I’m Going.

Great that there's a Powell and Pressburger film season on BBC.
Heard from Thelma Schoonmaker that the doc I made about I Know Where I'm Going! will be shown too. Don't know when.
Made it decades ago, not my usual style, but if you love IKWIG you might like it.

Another sad hopeful song for sad hopeful people. Give it a listen if you like Bright Eyes, Daniel Johnston, Mount Eerie, Robert Wyatt, Elliott Smith - stuff like that.

I could not be happier to announce that I have curated a season of Luchino Visconti's works, featuring a 4k restoration of my favourite, Rocco and his Brothers, for January 2025. More than half of the films will be screening on 35mm at BFI Southbank. More info here: www.bfi.org.uk/news/luchino...

Thanks for the feedback and for doing the bandcamp thing. Great way to help people who are new here connect with each other.

More sad but hopeful music for sad but hopeful people. Instrumental called Forest Gods.

Can you help me pick the album art for my next project?

I try to make sad yet hopeful songs for sad yet hopeful people. Sometimes it's hard to get the balance right. Here's a new one I'm working on.

P.S. really liking Bluesky so far. Let's be friends.

Guardian will no longer post on Elon Musk’s X from its official accounts Platform’s coverage of US election crystallised longstanding concerns about its content, says Guardian

Some big news this morning

Maybe slightly different but I experience something like this with dreams. They flash through like film stills in a slideshow in a random order. Not dreams from the night before, but it could be any dream I've had going back to childhood. If one appears I can't stop the next three or four.

Hey thanks for the feedback. Top left might be the one.

Hey thanks for the feedback and interacting with my first post. Bluesky seems like an ok place.
