Just a week until the launch of our beautiful Flow zine...

An eclectic range of strikingly original work from across our diverse community of Dartmoor artists, printmakers and photographers accompanied by the words of Kirsteen McNish.

We're very proud of it.

A black and white image by Iain Murray of a still, dark pool in a high Dartmoor river - a bank of gravel is highlighted by the weak sun. The landscape beyond is hazy in mist. Some words by Kirsteen McNish appear on the page to the left of the image:

Daylight, a Skylark spirals
its song from gorse to cloud
- a tiny vortex rising like smoke
At night, under a full moon,
the wind sears into skin,
illuminating the flux
Swallowed, swaled,
a cacophony shaken
from an ancient dream

The patch bay with its matrix enabled modules to be connected together in both conventional and very unconventional ways. Some very weird and wonderful sounds could be created,

My introduction to synthesisers. The electronics department at South Devon Tech had one and a friend and I played the "elective studies" program to get access to it for three terms. It really forced you to think and understand how the sound was generated.

A foolhardy attempt to catalogue everything about #Dartmoor ? Or a commendable quest for knowledge? Only time will tell 🤣 ... visit the new website at ourdartmoor.co.uk
It's very much a work in progress ... please feel free to make suggestions for inclusion in the directory 😍

While the big outdoor stages go quiet until next summer, the grassroots circuit doesn’t stop. Night after night, in hundreds of venues across the UK, the next wave of festival headliners are already making themselves known.

Saw this on a map @stuartackland.bsky.social · 10d

Olaus Magnus's 1539 map of Scandinavia is full of the wonderful and the plain weird. Sea monsters and maelstroms attack ships while on land people travel in reindeer-drawn carriages and fish through the ice. The map was the first to accurately depict land and give place-names. @bodleian.ox.ac.uk

If the music is in your YouTube account you can download it to the phone and play offline.

I must try VLC media player again, just copy the files onto the phone by USB cable and play them without relying on the corporates or a network connection. I found browsing on the player a bit clunky though.

Never really used Amazon's streaming service, there was some music in my account but I can't see it now. I use YouTube music on my phone with a free account. You can upload anything to the account regardless of source.

They nag from time to time suggesting I subscribe to their service.
