Exciting news just in! I've been selected as the Spring 2025 Recorder Resident at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology! I'll be spending 3 weeks at Cascade Head, Oregon in Feb/March working with artists and environmental scientists experimenting, performing and creating new work!

Perhaps this should encourage us to hope that the Arts might be taken more seriously should we have a new UK Government?

317 years ago today, Benjamin Franklin, the inventor of the Mechanical Glass Harmonica, was born in Boston. An able guitarist and viola da gamba player, he's apparently better-known for helping to establish the United States of America.

@team_recorder I saw this at the airport duty free!

[Dr Alana Blackburn @alanablackburn]

If you haven’t already, get your ticket to be part of this wonderful symposium. I’m honoured to be invited to be on a round table to discuss “listening better” and the role the arts can play in important discussions.

[Dr Alana Blackburn @alanablackburn]

Fantastic few days at @ORDA_Amsterdam, so inspiring! I loved catching up with friends and colleagues. Plus, little fun in a graffiti tunnel at the after party possibly for the next “blok reunion” album cover with @team_recorder and @AnnaStegmann 😂😂
