My Next Video............................................

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...

The Thing Is Done!

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!

Yet another section! What? 2 on the same night?

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.

The next section in my upcoming Facebook Epic.

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!...

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!

Update on Facebook video

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

Whenever I take on a large video project, I normally start off with a set of assumptions and a few ideas about how I'd like to structure things. Typically, my assumptions change drasticall...

A short piece I had performed recently.

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.

Small section from my upcoming video

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: View Post

New video is up

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.
