Howdy folks.
So, one thing I decided not to mention during the production of my Facebook video was that I was also slowly working away on my followup at the same time. In fact, I'm already about 70% through the script.
For those who have been asking for this for the last 5 years... ye...

Thanks so much to everyone for waiting for this one. It has been a serious journey to get it ready and released.
Next vid is already planned. It's about music. It won't be more than an hour long. I'm confident it'll go down a big treat. More to come about it soon!

Hey all,
This is the last section I'll be sharing before I release the entire video, which, as I mentioned, will have over an hour of new content you haven't seen yet.
Wish me luck. I need to get this out before the US election in November.

Hi all! In this section, I look at elections. I'm still making improvements to it right now so please let me know what you think or if you spot anything. I think I can tentatively say that this vid will be out late October and will include around an hour of additional footage you won't have seen!...

Hey all,
I hope you enjoy this first hour of my upcoming video, which makes up around 40% of the overall runtime.
There are one or two minor mistakes I've not yet corrected but please keep an eye out and let me know if you spot any new Jank I'm not aware of.

Hello, wonderful folk!
After a mammoth script writing and editing process, I’m now ready to share a little taste of what’s to come!
These first 30 minutes represent something like a 5th of the overall video’s length. There are one or two scrappy moments, including a title or two...

Hey everyone, thought I'd give a little update on how things are going with my mammoth Facebook video.

This is a short piece in a larger series I wrote for the Spaceship Ensemble, which was performed in the Hague in March 2024.
It's dedicated to Tim Smith of the band Cardiacs who passed away in 2020. Towards the end of this piece, I threw a couple of 'harmonic angles' in as a nod to his dis...

Hello all, now that I've got that notation video out of the way, I thought I might experiment a little bit before my next video, starting with a Jankman short. Nothing too time consuming so I can get out a result quickly as an experiment with the format.

Hey everyone, here it is in full! Thank you so much for the support throughout the production of this video. I'm very sorry this one took so long.

Hi everyone,
I've just uploaded the first the first half of my latest video 'Notation Must Die', which runs to 32 minutes.

Hey everyone. I'm still deep in the editing of this video. It's awkward to put together but I'm blasting through it pretty quickly now.
Feel free to suggest what I should display when the video fades to white at the end. Haven't made my mind up yet!

Hi everyone, it has been a while. After my last video, things got quite crazy and at times, quite ugly too (you don't take on a forum without getting a lot of backlash in return). It's a whole story.
However, during this time, I've been researching and writing the script for a new video:

Hey everyone, just to let you know the new video is up. Thanks very much for your comments on the draft I shared last week.
This video is quite a bit more polished, includes a lot more visual examples and includes additional sections/interviews towards the end that weren't in the draft.
