I develop content creation tools for virtual reality but you're more likely to see pics from bike rides out in the Fens.

Nice spot for lunch on the Ouse way. Also had a wander round the Holt island reserve in St Ives. Glorious day!

Fulbourn fen in full glory. And there’s a cuckoo singing - first this spring for me.

Today I will be listening to The Modern Dance and others... www.theguardian.com/music/2025/a...

"Can you imagine what they would have done if I'd cancelled Fox News's access to the White House?" Worth watching all of it to be reminded how compassionate, thoughtful and eloquent a leader can be. The title's a bit clickbaity as he doesn't even mention Trump. www.youtube.com/watch?v=liKL...

Cycled put to Wicken Fen today - glorious warm early spring day with everything greening up. Saw the sails turning on the windmill so went and checked it put and got to see the mechanisms in action. They make great flour and it’s what I mostly bake bread with.

GameStorm is now available for the Meta Quest. This is what we've been working on for the last 9 months thanks to an Innovate grant. Get it here: www.meta.com/en-gb/experi...

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests. So, best we share all the footage we can here! This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu. 🇹🇷 #Turkey

Do you find that naps make you groggy? Turns out, there’s a science to doing it right and giving your hippocampus a handy midday boost. open.substack.com/pub/unhackyo...

Lots of snowdrops out at Fulbourn wood. Bit past their prime and the aconites mostly done. But still glorious!

Happy Imbolc all! The end of winter and first signs that spring is on its way: apple trees are showing bud as is the blackthorn out in the fens. Fields that were barren a week ago are now turning green. Every day the sun rises a little higher and has a little more warmth.

Rewatching one of my favourite films of all times: Excalibur. I can't count the number of times I have watched over the years. Boorman really gets to grips with the myth of Arthur: the King and the Land are One! A great cast, stunning cinematography and solid action. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excalib...

So much redundancy on the Internet. All these social media posts floating around crying "Mr President I voted for you please don't deport my wife / sack my husband / make my medication unaffordable" etc can all be replaced with this one fun video. Much better. youtu.be/8QGy9D_c1pY?...

I saw an early screening of this with temp gfx for the animations so really looking forward to seeing the final version. But sadly they've had problems getting any distribution - hopefully an oscar nomination will unblock! kyivindependent.com/ukrainian-do...

The start of the American Reich :( www.youtube.com/watch?v=joV-...

This is neat (watch the vid about halfway down to see it in action): arstechnica.com/science/2024...

All India Radio is a modern (i.e., 21st C) band I listen to a lot. Lots of moody ambient soundscapes mixed with proggy riffs. Lots of Floyd inspiration - indeed the cover for this album is one of those originally commissioned for Dark Side. open.spotify.com/album/5UltYQ...

Low noon sun out in the fens.

I've been listening to a lot of Redshift recently: Mark Shreeve going back to Berlin school electronica with analogue synths. open.spotify.com/playlist/37i...

So for my first post, here are a few pics from my ride out to St Ives and Fen Drayton lakes. Light is getting a bit thin and low as autumn runs out.
