About me

For the last decade and more, my fascination with taking things apart and putting them back together again has manifested itself in my habitual making, using and working with Internet stuff.

In addition to providing me with a soapbox, this site tracks what I’m up to online using feeds from Flickr, del.icio.us and others.

Red alert

Red alert
It's a long time since I've been to one of these proper rave jobs, but it was Cookie's birthday bash, and joining him and the crowd in going along seemed like a mighty fine idea when we spilled out of the bar, even though I had to cough twenty notes to a tout to get in. The do, called "Bugged Out", was in a warehouse in Hearn St, off Curtain Road in Shoreditch. "Too Many DJs" played along with various hard/electro-house types, and it was a pretty decent set-up. Proper dirty warehouse with no frills, but what was there was solid; just a shit-hot sound system, couple of podia, some robo-scans (YEEAHH) and other lighting things I don't know the names of, decent bogs, just-about-bearably-priced drinks (three and a half quid for a beer) and genuinely friendly, unstressed barfolk. Fun.
