Interesting! Great article Liam!

The Police were great! NB You might then be interested in this event in London. Looks interesting! www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/wor...
Also - Kate Bush ....using the song of the Blackbird on her album Ariel. (in the music, but also visuals - the the cover has the soundwave of Blackbird song on it)
May be of interest if you aren't already aware....https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/feb/14/the-synergy-is-amazing-stewart-copeland-album-fuses-nature-and-music

White cut out letters on a black background read ‘Save Short Cuts!’
A screenshot of the opening of the letter. It reads, “We are devastated by the news of the BBC’s cancellation of Short Cuts. In a time where audio imaginations are being squashed by commercial realities, Short Cuts has been a stronghold for creativity. While the podcasting market exploded, and imploded, Short Cuts has been a life raft for audio-makers and artists from all over the world to hold onto. Rather than fostering one particular style of storytelling, Short Cuts continues to inspire a generation of makers around the world to try new things, be ambitious, and tell stories they can’t tell elsewhere. In this way, the influence of Short Cuts goes far beyond its series. It is more than just a podcast, it is a call to action, a cultural hub, an informal mentorship programme, an ode to audio that takes time. We agree with The Guardian’s Miranda Sawyer “that this is one of the most important programmes on UK radio”.”
We were in bits when we saw this open letter on Friday, put together by a group of audio-makers.
It’s Sunday morning as we write this and it already has well over 800 signatures. 😭 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

“We are always, now, talking in terms of survival, pleading for money. Over and over we have to justify our value. In a world without drama, music, art and all other creative activity, our value would, too late, become horribly apparent.” (Rona Munro)
