@Nicbfiddle Which one?!? I’ve had a few recommendations, but keen to get as much intel as possible!

Thought I'd have ago at one of those split screen video that everyone's been doing, and it's taken days... and I hate the A Capella app in all it's forms!

This is one of my tunes called 'Undefeated'

What you *really* want for Christmas is... a paper accepted at the first Anglo/Celtic Traditional Music Symposium (Limerick, 23.6.20)!! Well, if you're very, very good (and you submit ASAP), your dream could come true: https://t.co/j2mKnlvNdd @piper_simon @bfeadmin @ICTMIreland

A serious #digitalfolk issue that calls for serious debate. I’m here to be a talking head as soon as the major news networks are ready to tackle this one... https://t.co/XvahNekKOO

@piper_simon I’m afraid I got as far as 6 before needing to stop for fear of throwing my phone out the window in a fit or rage. Having spent years writing policies for marking and moderation, I was hoping to learn the great secret... imagine my disappointment...!

We're hoping to take our Folk Factory groups to this year's Music for Youth Fringe Festival in Birmingham... but we need your help!

Anyone who is able to support us (however big or small) would be helping us get the children to this fantastic event!

Thanks to Ian Nichols of https://t.co/PTbs2UTRoh for sharing this incredible resource of (mostly) 360 degree vids of ceilidhs with the eceilidh list... they’re notoriously hard to film, and these capture the essence nicely! https://t.co/rXnaDXeaaL

And here's a graph showing the key themes that appear in answer to the question 'Are there ways of using digital media or technology that you would consider inappropriate for folk activities?' from the @DigitalFolkProj survey @tuosmusic @research_artist

[Simon Keegan-Phipps @EthnoMuso]

Crunching the numbers on responses to 'The Transgression Question' in the @DigitalFolkProj Survey. Here's the first of a couple of interesting pics, showing the level of division! And note the all-important "No, but..." category
