If you are feeling like there's no point in making your art while the world falls apart, I would just like to say that we need your art especially desperately right now. Maybe do some writing, painting, dancing, musicmaking, knitting, whatever today!

#SilentSunday

Salsify from below. The sky and treetops are seen through the seed head.

@JackTheCat I’ve got video footage of hailstones and snow landing on the 6th out the backie from a couple of years ago. Get that cloot back in its vacuum pack for a week or two yet 😫

‘One Of These Days’ noise. It was neat, multi-notes at once.

A day inside ‘cause the weather is so up and down today so attempting to refresh the old #Surface with an #Ubuntu install and hopefully keep the touch screen available (an additional step so I believe) so I can still have fun with the slidey keys in #Bitwig. There’s a sound in there that nailed #Orbital ‘s #TheBox and also a distorted slide guitar that was always good fun trying to replicate newer takes of #OneOfTheseDays by #PinkFloyd. Here’s me putting the ‘B’ in The Box. It’s not vibrato sensitive so god knows what my digit is thinking but it felt natural to give it a wobble! This is from a few years ago, I hope I don’t brick it! 😅

A Saucerful Of Secrets - Pink Floyd (remastered)

Floyd's second album was written and recorded during the falling apart of founder member Syd Barrett, who was replaced by Dave Gilmour before it was completed.

In the foreground is an album cover with a small photograph of the band inset into an abstract design. A promotional sticker is fixed to the right hand side.
Behind the player is a mug of coffee on a speaker.

That’s the street up 🔊💚🎸

Mick Fleetwood & Friends - Celebrate The Music Of Peter Green And The Early Years Of Fleetwood Mac - 2021

#Vinyl #VinylCollection

An almost Bill Graham-esque album cover that’s mainly text due to the mammoth length of the album title with an older photo of Peter Green playing back in the day. It’s a combo of red, blue, cream and yellow colours. The friends/ artists that appeared for this reads like a veritable who’s who. Personal highlight: David Gilmour performing ‘Albatross’ and possibly Kirk Hammet sporting PG’s original ‘greeny’ Les Paul to play ‘The Green Manalishi’ with Billy Gibbons on vox.

Over to the west of Scotland and a trip in 2019 to visit Cromalt (west) chambered cairn near Ledmore for today's #StandingStoneSunday

The cairn material is mostly gone but the very nice orthostats of the chamber still remain. It's a little in the middle of nowhere nowadays but the walk here is good and the landscape open and pretty wonderful.

#ChamberedCairn #Neolithic #TheModernAntiquarian

The cairn material is mostly gone from the chambered cairn but the orthostats of the chamber still remain. Open landscape to the big hills beyond.

Hat zwar nichts mit #Asterix zu tun, aber ich weiß aus sicherer Quelle, dass es eine nicht geringe Fan-Schnittmenge gibt. Und ich finde sowohl das Zitat als auch das Bild einfach nur klasse: "Das Leben genießen du sollst!" #starwars #MayTheFourthBeWithYou

Ein flaches Cocktailglas mit zwei schwarzen Oliven, zwei halben Zitronen und einem Bastumhang. Die Kombiation sieht aus wie Yoda.

Five of the six chunky standing stones forming a circle in a grass field. The sixth stone is hidden behind the front one.

The mighty Old Keig recumbent stone circle in Aberdeenshire for today's #StandingStoneSunday

A huge recumbent, one of the largest of all, in a great setting with sweeping views across the landscape.

Visited April 2012 on a fantastic day of stone bothering.

#Aberdeenshire #TheModernAntiquarian #StoneCircle

An enormous stone lies on its side between two talll standing stones, with a further shorter standing stone in the foreground. The setting is a grassy field underneath a silhouetted tree. The site is elevated and looks across farmland towards higher wooded hills on the skyline. It's overcast and there's a threat of sleety rain to come.

Cup and ring rock art (Knock 4) at Clarksburn Wood, near Monreith, Dumfries and Galloway.

A small rock in the foreground bearing an ancient carving of concentric rings around a small cup-like depression. A field wall and trees are to the right and a blue sky overhead.

Opticians later on today, hoping to get my ‘balls recalibrated accordingly. Short-sightedness seems to have improved over the years but long-sightedness defo getting worse. A nightmare reading ingredients that need to be avoided even if stamped in bold. Just about inadvertently killed Mrs DD twice this year already.
