Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 22/11/2025These death masks of Isaac Newton, Oliver Cromwell and John Keats are doing my head in a little. It’s not like seeing a photo or a painting, there’s a real sense a physical person. They were hiding on a bottom shelf in the wonderfully eccentric Wisbech and Fenland Museum. Well worth a visit. 160
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 16/11/2025Delighted to be interviewed by and performing with pedal steel guitarist Joe Harvey-Whyte for his ambient show The Dream Stream on Soho Radio tonight at 10pm UK Time. Joe’s an incredible player, it was a joy. The show will be available online shortly afterwards, I’ll post a link. #ambient 132
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 17/10/2025Here’s a nice little taster of the oddness of my showbiz-adjacent life. 1332
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 17/10/2025And finally, a little bit of video I took at the beginning, with the sound of me saying “ooh that’s funny” removed. This is how it would have appeared to a deaf person… 0426
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 16/10/2025Running out of photos, but here’s Lauren Laverne’s intro. These may have been the correct subtitles, I’m not sure. 416424
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 16/10/2025I think Jarvis lost the plot slightly with this moment of improv. 519024
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 16/10/2025The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis. 5027361026
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 18/04/2025I had one of the weirder moments in a weird life last night when I realised that the Black Mirror episode Playthings was inspired by Creatures, a game I worked on in the 90s. Charlie Brooker reviewed it at the time, and apparently it stuck in his head. 2235
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 13/02/2025This collaboration between Nils Frahm and Robert de Niro is currently playing on 6 Music. A 15 minute mixture of grainy folk orchestra and spoken word. Absolutely stunning. 191
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 15/12/2024Today’s adventure in crisp land: KFC flavoured crisps from Germany. Like regular Walkers chicken crisps with a sachet of black pepper per crisp. Oddly compelling. 360
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 13/12/2024That said, a few hours ago my little boy asked me the same question, and went for these. Which seem to only exist in the mostly-Polish corner shop in town. 110
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 13/12/2024These beauties are “Mustard Octopus” flavour. You can occasionally find them in oriental supermarkets. Like nice sushi, if it were a bag of crisps. 230
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 09/12/2024@andrewhunterm.bsky.social Found another for your “names that work as sentences” collection. 010
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 02/12/2024Apparently I’m playing live on Sky Arts at the moment, surround by lots of people with the “Eno” surname. 0111
Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers.com · 25/11/2024A thrill to see Laurie Anderson’s epic multi-media show in Manchester last night. An enormous, apocalyptic sound generated by a three musicians on stage, and some ghosts offstage. 070
