Pitchfork: Exclusive: Bjork Talks Volta for the Very First Time
Volta: a new album from Björk, to be released on 7th May. Probably explains the timing of her playing at Glastonbury this year - a place I’m really not up to attending for both price and stamina reasons.
I never tire of her music and am [...]

Yes, it does… at least if you’re not a completely new visitor.
As per usual, life doesn’t provide me with the luxuries of time to make this all sing beautifully in one session, so some evolution will occur over the coming days/weeks.
One of the most important additions is to enable you, discerning reader, to filter out [...]

After a weekend of playtime and fun for a change, another MT splurges out into the world. Sorry, but I messed up the mic settings a little, doh!
The joys of returning to a more sensible work/life balance, Freelance developers who have no clue, Conference calls (I loathe them), Soap shops, and the best solution [...]

Yes, it’s that completely unpredictable moment when another Minor Technicality squeezes its squidgy way out into the warming world.
This show is all about stuff going on:

- Not so much fun using the London public transport system - In, out, in, out, shake it all about.
- Nasal hair and [...]

It has been a while since I’ve created image of these strange asexual characters. On waking this morning the basic elements of this drawing were clear in my mind so I stole a few minutes here and there throughout the day to put pen to paper - or rather pen to Moleskine.
This drawing satisfies [...]

The key to making GTD (Get Things Done) work is to keep it simple. The biggest downfall, particularly for anyone with ADD, is gettin more wrapped up in the process of GTD, than actually using to solve the day-to-day balancing of work, personal, and other miscellaneous tasks.
For a few months now I have solved my [...]

Just before the old year was up and the new one started slipping in under the gap in the door, our new podcast spluttered into the open last night.
We actually recorded each night while on holiday in Madeira back in November - I suppose it could be called a holiday diary - but during [...]

After posting the rough watercolour sketch of the volcanic rocks in the sea at Pedra Furada, Madeira (last post, below), I plucked up the courage to put up the rest of the drawings and sketches I did while out there, on my Flickr account.
These works are highly personal, produced [...]

That’s right, it’s all about bums on seats - or buds in ear is perhaps more accurate.
I know, I know, it’s more complicated than that, right? I mean, how can a focused niche podcast (Shoes for Squirrels) compete with something offering global, mainstream appeal (Shoes for Everybody)? Well, it’s all about actual audience numbers relative [...]
