Looking up in February.
I made a little prototype film with my half frame #kodakektarh35n, some homemade dandelion developer and a less than ideal scanning set up.
Inspired by a couple of workshops I've been on recently with @sustainabledarkroom and @beefbristol .

mɜː.məˈreɪ.ʃən #6 | sounding objects the album.
Very much enjoying listening everyone's recordings and interpretations from last years murmurations trip. They feature on an album of the same name produced by Jez and Pheobe.
For my contribution I had some fun mixing my recordings as a piece of music. I'm interested in process related artifacts and it features audio about the logistics of arranging a collaborative performance. My thanks to Maryia Kamarova and @hye.young.sin , recordings made during both their workshops feature in the track. And to @jezrileyfrench , @pheobelaw for making it all happen.
And here's some sketches and photos of the listeners. The sketches are from a lake listenign session. I was doing some macro listening with my ears whilst watching people micro listening (lake interpretations are included in the album).
You can get the album on bandcamp on a pay what you can basis.

Expired (probably >50 years ) 120 Kodacolor 200 shot on my @lomography Diana F, which has been my favourite camera recently. Processed at @filmprocessing.co.uk and photographed at home. Played with a few different versions in darktable.
It was the first roll I shot last year when I got the camera. Many reasons not to use this as the first roll but I wanted to. So I did.

Couldn't resist the 3 minute life drawing class with @lilyholder and model @titaniaartmodel@londondrawinggroup on Sunday. I'm a quick pose fan and Titania had all the best poses.
I realised I packed most of the drawings away before photographing, so here's just a few.
I was using ArtGraf tailor shape, water soluble pigment in a block like a tailors chalk. Not drawn with them before and they're great. And blue and black chunky acrylic pens.
The circles are new for me too and a welcome change to my sometimes spiky lines.

I've given up waiting for the light to be good enough to photograph these nicely, so here are some quick snaps of few lino designs I've been working on.
Variations based on a sketch I did of the Cornish coast somewhere between Mousehole and Lamorna in September.
It's been great to be back @ochreprint after a gap!

The River Dee, Scotland.
I started icm (intentional camera movement) with film a few years ago when I picked up film again. This one is from the Linn of Dee, taken on the murmurations 6 residency. A shallow spot where the colour of the river bed was picked up by the sunlight and its waters reflected the sky.
I took 5 pictures of 'the same' scene, and this one I enjoy the most. They don't all work out. I found the old Jessops film in an old camera bag, I reckon it's about 20 years old. It's no longer made. All the images I took have a nostalgic look to them to me.
It's more difficult without the feedback of a screen, but I enjoy the anticipation of whether there's something interesting waiting in that canister. I'm starting to build knowledge of the types of movements that produce certain types of results, and the differences in translating that from digital to film.

Sand dunes on the beach near #lothmore, on the east coast of Scotland.

#chobhamcommon, upside down pair.
I got a bunch of film developed recently. I had forgotten I'd taken this upside down pair.
Taken on #pentaxp30t with #ilforddelta3200. I wanted to see what the high ISO was like in good light. It's a different game with no way to preview the images and limited frames. I took one version of each frame. I corrected for light levels but they are a little different, though pleasingly pretty much aligned. No adjustments other than the boarders were made to the scans.

Last afternoon at #murmuration2025 residency. @kaydee8888@liz.e.thomas and I created some listening scores for the creaky churchyard gates. We chose to perform a graphic score and recorded it with omni and contact mics clipped to the gates while gathering background texture on mics placed at a distance. The cables were a bit of a challenge. The sound is an extract from the longer @kaydee8888 edit. The other 2 clips are recorded on an iPhone. Brilliant to be with people keen to experiment and play. #sound #fieldrecording
The body as landscape, life drawing with @lilyholder from @londondrawinggroup and model @modbodarian . I did this class several years ago and it was just as much fun this time around.
Paper, coloured cellophane, slide projector and fan.
A couple of images from one of the small installations I created at the Phantasmagoria short course with Tabitha Andrews at West Dean College. Wonderful discussion and time creating with Tabitha and fellow students.
