Soundhunt starts in 40 minutes at @cambridgejunction.bsky.social!

line break and excellent typo had me scratching my head to work out what on earth a "panch romantic" film stock might be (I got it in the end!)

Gotta say the BBC radio 4 today description of Trump’s State of the Union as some sort of mild mannered, well orchestrated speech doesn’t tally at all with the clips I’ve watched

Listening to Sarah Smith talking so effusively about Trump’s speech can’t help thinking about *that* lawsuit….

RIP the indomitable Éliane Radigue; a long and very rich life. I was very lucky to work with her; visiting her Paris apartment on Rue Liancourt was special. She lived there for decades, literally just around the block from Agnès Varda. Now there's a collaboration I would have loved to see happen.

Dominic Lash bass solo December 2025 YouTube video by domlash

how about starting the new year with a bit of solo double bass from the end of last year... www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5-Y...

Towards an account of rhythmic phrasing in narrative film The study of rhythm in film has been subject to increased levels of attention in recent years, but its potential to offer theoretical and aesthetic illumin

very nice to end the year with a publication! I'm very pleased that my article on rhythmic phrasing in narrative film has just appeared in the latest issue of Screen academic.oup.com/screen/artic...

By my count, and based on the information provided in the magazine itself, 15 of them haven't opened yet and a further 9 are "awaiting" release, which presumably means there's a possibility it'll never happen...

I said the same last year, but as interesting as the @sightsoundmag.bsky.social films of the year list is (and it is!), putting "How Many Have You Seen?" on the cover is just silly when almost half of the 50 films aren't available to UK audiences
