Once again super happy at the work www.bikeforgood.org.uk did on my bike today. Rescued the chainset with a new middle ring, new chain, cassette, cables. Cleaned and reset both mechs, now have smooth changing and better gear ratios. Highly recommended!

Jings, 1st #trombone part for 'Quietude' would be wild enough without having the 2nd trombone trying to play exactly the same thing in parallel a semitone below!

Wasn't sure if composer Tom Johnson's (self-) publishing house would still be accepting orders, following his recent passing. But a nice fellow there sent this on to me. Been thinking a lot about permutations in melodic writing recently, so looking forward to reading this.

A thread explaining our new discovery about humpback whale song published today in Science... We found key statistical properties that characterise all human languages in another species for the first time. We have more in common with whales than we previously thought! doi.org/10.1126/scie...

A simple journey from Glasgow's Southside to the east takes a feat of exhausting mental maths - to the point just walking for two hours seems more appealing. How could the city sync up its transport? And why hasn't it?

Monday morning. Should I try to race through all the unanswered trivial emails from staff and students over the weekend, then get stuck into real work? If I do it that way might never get to the real work… Or do the real work first…? Or answer the emails on Sunday night…? #AcademicSky

Just realised I've spent a good chunk of my weekend working on a conference proposal. Is this a bad thing, as in unpaid overtime? Or a good thing, as in doing something I'm passionate about? Discuss. (And anyway… would not have got the head space to do it during the academic week!) #AcademicSky

Academic chores: approaching deadline, cutting the abstract down to 200 words, fiddling with passive constructions, and trying not to use the same abstract noun twice. #AcademicSky

Been getting back into shape over the last week or so in order to be ready for the arrival of six new clarinet solo pieces arriving tomorrow, which I'll be workshopping with students at the RNCM two weeks today. Fun! (Also: quite a lot of work!)

If you compose a piece of music in 6/8 but notate it in 2/4 for the sake of convenience, is it still in 6/8? Asking for a friend. #music #composition

On the blog today: more 12/8, or rather, some old 12/8 in connection with the new 12/8 www.jsimonvanderwalt.com/blog #composition

Yes, to which I'll add - keep making that half-broken Pd patch, keep collecting field recordings of your washing machine, keep producing dance music that inflicts foot injuries, keep doing exactly what you're doing as it's a hell of a lot better than what a lot of people are doing with their time.
