I made an old school bootleg recording of Opeth playing in Mumbai last night. I wasn't sure if I'd be free so I didn't book tickets but they played outdoor near by so I grabbed a chair and listened from across a wall. Opeth is the soundtrack to Mumbai life. youtu.be/04BxIsXllbU?...

Cycled my first 50km, that was so fun. I definitely need cycling shorts. My bum was calling me an asshole.

I'm so happy with my new cycle accessories. I can dump stuff in the trunk and have the freedom to go anywhere and record it too.

I've been 'mapping' the survey responses on sounds that are culturally/personally important to people in different parts of the world. The video represents only the first 80 responses. Sadly very few from Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa and Asia, and none from Ukraine tinyurl.com/7w3amz83

Great little documentary about the Indian Soldiers experience in Europe during WWI. I studied a British curriculum and learned about the World Wars but never once heard about Indian troops or any of the colonial troops for that matter. Only until I moved to India did I learn. vimeo.com/224709399

About 2 years since the completion of 'Sonic Pasts: acoustical heritage and historical soundscapes'. A great moment to celebrate the many books that inspired my work. In this pile are only books that I own physical copies of, but lots more were consulted + multiple articles and other sources.

As part of my work on sound heritage, I'm running a short survey on sounds (not music) that are important personally/culturally to people from different parts of the world. It's available in different languages. If you can contribute and share the survey with others please do ❤️ tinyurl.com/2twuzpfd

my god, this is amazing. apparently from a NY Times interview with Neill and Goldblum. Resharing with alt text so everyone can enjoy

How long has it been since you've seen the original "Jurassic Park"?

SAM NEILL: The last time I watched it in its totality was sitting beside Princess Di at Leicester Square at the London opening. On the other side of me was my son Tim he was 11 and completely swept away by it, but about the time the T-Rex turns up, Tim started to fart. And the draft was drifting across me to royalty! I spent the whole film in a muck sweat, thinking, "Princess Di is being exposed to the horrors of a little boy's fart, but she's going to think it's me. I am going to be subliminally blamed for my son's crimes, and I don't think she'll talk to me afterwards." But she was well brought up and never mentioned it.

JEFF GOLDBLUM: I love that story, Sam. I've heard him tell that a couple of times, and it's just amazing the lengths that he will go to still blame the boy.

Thundering in the rain always makes me think of the T-Rex scene in Jurassic Park. Also without how detailed the scene is with rain hitting the windows, I can hear the same on mine. #MaybeItsThePowerTryingToComeBackOn

I'm late but this film series makes me so happy. I'm so glad we have something like this being made. Showcasing the beauty of the land, culture, mythology and (exaggerated) folk life of India. All whilst creating it's own world and engaging story. It's also just crazy ridiculous in a cool way. #WOHH

Question for the handful of Indians here. If you use social media to find work. How do you go about it? Only Facebook & Instagram (if you're lucky) seem like viable options but they're flooded with crap and questionable leads. Linkedin these days mostly have jobs to train AI. #IndiaSky

It's a strange thing how India is so disconnected from the sea. When people think of India they think Northern inland India. All the major changes that made India what it is today came from the sea.

India is severely lacking in documentary films. I feel like it's one of the best formats to learn new things and perspectives. Most Indian documentaries I've seen has been made outside of India. We grew up on Animal Planet, Discovery, Nat Geo, History Channel. Kids have half truth shorts and reels.
