The past couple of mornings I’ve had a walk without the dogs because even at 8am it’s hot and they don’t cope well. Gave me chance to make a few field recordings and have the time to look around for photo opportunities, spotted this beauty on the edge of the lake #Heron

What have I only just realised that gulls look quite overly-dramatic mid-flight? #Incoming #AccidentalRennaisance

Delighted to be a part of this @citiesandmemory.bsky.social project launching tomorrow. 100 years of incredible ethnographic recordings from @pittriversmuseum.bsky.social's extraordinary sound collections, reimagined into brand new compositions.

It’s way harder than you’d think taking a photo of the moon on your phone through binoculars #Moon #Photography

So pinning the spider was just the start, now it’s been put in a display case and is appearing in random locations around the house #spider #FalseWidow

Could sense the slight panic in ‘what’s just landed on your head?’ It was quite big, about 2cm, luckily managed to photo it before it flew off. It’s actually a #HornetMimicHoverfly looks like a hornet but completely harmless. Not rare but never seen one before! #VolucellaZonaria #Pollinator

Tried taking a photo of the moon through binoculars. Didn’t work. So I glitched it and came up with something that looks like a weird surreal insect #glitch #weird #creature #surreal

One of our daughter’s found a dead spider. Said it was a ‘good specimen’ to pin. Fair enough, just didn’t expect her to leave it on the bench in the garage so it’s the first thing you see when you walk in, always makes me jump! #Spider #Arachnid #FalseWidow #JumpScare

Have a new addition to go with the #Crave Looked at a few options like the Edge, Spice and Microfreak but this was the best combination of price and features Unfortunately you can’t use Crave sequences on the Grind even though it’s the same sequencer on both units #synth #Behringer #Grind

As well as music apps @brambosofficial.bsky.social also created the awesome XP4N #photography app apps.apple.com/gb/app/xp4n/... This was taken on #CromerPier there were loads of #Gulls and managed to capture one mid flight after several attempts

An in-production shot for this week’s Haiku Challenge by @naviarrecords.bsky.social #Experimental #DarkAmbient Feat. @brambosofficial.bsky.social #Eventide #UnfilteredAudio #AqeelAadam It’s a bit lo-fi and levels were all over the place so 🤞it’s ok when I finalise later

#InsectThursday #Pollinators A #HoneyBee pollinating #Clover on the garden lawn

Didn’t realise #sqrlpix was a thing, don’t have many but here’s one:

Speaking of the #Sunflowers, our eldest daughter grew them from seeds, they’re very popular today too #Hoverfly #Pollinators

Thought it might be #FlyingAntDay today but no, it’s #FlyingLadybirdDay instead The garden is full of them, they’re everywhere, couldn’t get a good in-flight shot so here’s one on a Sunflower stalk shortly before take-off

Pretty sure most people walking past would think the corner of the front garden is a bit of a mess, overgrown or use a similar description. I like to think of it more as an urban meadow supporting the local insect population #Hollyhock #Insects #BumbleBee #Pollinators

Just released a tape of mine in the wild. Wonder if anyone will find it - and know what it is if they do?

Also have a few codes for this one #ambient #drone #lofi #minimal #techno It features some sounds from the XSL sample pack by Thalamus Labs, unfortunately this disappeared off the internet but I found it on an old hard drive and you can download it from my website

Can’t believe this is nearly 7 years old, found a few spare bandcamp codes andrulian.bandcamp.com/yum #electronic #ambient #glitch #techno

Another garage find, a few dance classics. Hard to believe these are about 25 years old! #GarageFind #Dance #classics

I found this in the garage whilst sorting a box of CDs and if it was just non-bogus I probably wouldn’t have thought anything of it but seeing as it’s fully non-bogus it’s worth a mention #BillandTed #Kiss

Guitar School was always my favourite magazine, was quite hard to get hold of them at the time. Found a few more in the garage I’d forgotten about. These are from 93/94. Always seemed to have songs and lessons you didn’t find in other magazines. #guitarmagazine #GuitarSchool

Also retrieved this from the loft, thought it was protected but apparently not, in a pretty poor state. Thankfully only cosmetic, cleaned up pretty well. I know this is Eko but no idea when it was made, their website has no mention and I can’t find anything definitive #Eko #banjo

Retrieved this old friend from the loft. Needs a restring but in pretty good shape otherwise. Don’t really know anything about it, bought it in the mid 90s, it’s unbranded so no idea who made it or when! #guitar #resonator

Created this 2 track EP during my recent review of Impressionism by #SpitfireAudio It’s now on all streaming services as well as Bandcamp #newmusic #ambient #neoclassical #downtempo #experimental

Quite subtle glitch on this one #photography #glitch #stork
