I arrived in Bulgaria again earlier in the week. I'm here for about 18 days, sorting out the house, reading in preparation for the start of my PhD, watching films and generally feeding my head! As an aside, I'm also doing some filming for a friend's band...

Looking through my pictures of Shambala this year I was reminded of the best random thing I saw. On Sunday afternoon we were walking past the Hurley Burley cafe (above) when all the cafe staff stopped serving and performed a great dance routine to "One Day Like This" by Elbow...

I always enjoy the Shambala Festival. It's relatively close (just south of Market Harborough), it's just the right size (Glasto's to big for me these days!), and I always bump in to plenty of people I know there.This year I worked again with Modulate doing laser projections in the woodlands area...

We relaunched the Stench 'innovative performance' community in March 2009 with a show at The Phoenix in Leicester...

Cuttlefish is involved in two events in August. The first is the two-week Summer Sundae Fringe Festival...

I popped up to Derbyshire this weekend with my friend Geoff. The weather was perfect - even up on the moors. We managed to visit a couple of stone circles while we were there...

Stench IV took place at The Phoenix on Friday - the last of our events to take place there before the 'old' Phoenix closes and the new one opens under the name of 'Phoenix Square' in the Cultural Quarter.A (intentionally) slightly less packed programme than last time started with turntablist James...

For my second week at Schumacher College the focus of our studies shifted to Gaia Theory and ecological systems in general. Frijof presented materials from his "Hidden Connections" and "Web of Life" books and Stephan Harding presented work from his book "Animate Earth"...

After a week of studying the science of Leonardo with Frijof Capra at Schumacher was time for a couple of days off. I used it as an opportunity to review my notes from the previous week and do some video recording around the college.

Where do I start? It's been a really packed few days. Various sessions with Frijof Capra discussing the science of Leonardo. A 'gaia' walk with Stephan Harding around the Dartington estate. Plus cooking, gardening, cleaning and eating. Schumacher College really is a amazing andfulfillingplace to be...

Another full day at Schumacher College. Starting with a session with Fritjof Capra, then a very interesting open discussion with Stephan Harding, Brian Goodwin and Fritjof (pictured). In the afternoon we had a "fireside chat" with Satish Kumar...

I arrived at Schumacher College in Totnes, Devon today to participate in a two week course being taught by Fritjof Capra entitled "Living Networks: From Leonardo to Lovelock & Beyond". It's my first time at the college...

Many years ago I took and passed the "Radio Amateur Exam". This enabled me to apply for a radio amateur license and (more importantly for me at the time) gave me a good excuse to learn about electronics, radio and useful things you can do with a soldering iron...
