Another one of my albums has an anniversary later this month. Paranoid (Imaginary Themes) was released last year, as my tribute to the early 90s era of classic gaming. Thanks to @jrpmedia.bsky.social for helping bring the Paranoid ship design to life! thelightdreams.bandcamp.com/album/parano...

What an honour to have artwork by @thelightdreams.bsky.social on the cover of my debut novel, and for it to be included in Alex's new book - coming soon! 🚀📚🪐❤️ #sciencefiction #scifiart #sffart #bookcover

This weekend saw Novacon 54 take place in Buxton, Derbyshire. I produced the cover art for the short story 'Salvage' by @emilytesh.net , which was included in members' packs.

Coming soon… I’ve been putting together FIRST LIGHT, a retrospective book showcasing the best of my sci-fi art and book cover designs. With specially written text by Richard Hayes, the book captures 15 years of science fiction worlds and cosmic storytelling! Stay tuned for launch details! 🚀✨

🚀 Apple Music is now the main streaming home for my music since removing most of my work from Spotify - but my audience there is only small. If you love atmospheric, conceptual instrumentals, come and experience The Light Dreams! music.lnk.to/LCW1U2

It's ten years since the release of my album Timeshift, with influences ranging from John Carpenter to Jean-Michel Jarre. I'm still pretty happy with this album, I think there are some nice moods and ideas and a consistent sound. thelightdreams.bandcamp.com/album/timesh...

"Blurred Wireless" the latest surreal EP of spoken-word adventure starring Doctor Who's @sophiealdred.bsky.social as SAFFRON is out today on Bandcamp, with me on soundscape duty. zincharlequin1.bandcamp.com/album/blurre...

It was a genuine pleasure to write about the electronic incidental music of 1980s Doctor Who for the upcoming DWAS annual celebrating the fifth Doctor - 'my' era of the show!

Work on the layout of INSIDE OUTSIDE has begun. Still got work to do on the writing, but it's nice to get the more visual side moving in tandem.

40 years ago today, the Blackpool Doctor Who exhibition closed its doors for the last time. BLACKPOOL REMEMBERED celebrates over a decade of exciting exhibits through a visual history of the classic exhibition. amzn.eu/d/333viPu

Evolution of the Toy Dalek - shipping worldwide! If you have read and enjoyed my book, please consider a short review, as it helps the book's visibility, especially in the very busy landscape of Doctor Who publications! amzn.eu/d/aXMCHAD

Writing this book was a long-time ambition for me, so it's really gratifying to be asked on to excellent shows such as @trapone.bsky.social to talk about all things Dalek!

My latest album Málverk takes a wide range of influence from the landscapes of Iceland to science fiction and space art. I have removed it from Spotify, so if you're an Apple Music user, it can still be fond here... music.apple.com/gb/album/m%C...

Convention flashback! I thoroughly enjoyed exhibiting my science fiction art at conventions between 2012 and 2019. I never thought I would find myself in a position where my work was on show and people actually wanted to buy it!

Thank you!!!

My recent chat with @trapone.bsky.social is now online! Here's a geektastic look behind the scenes of the making of my book, Evolution of the Toy Dalek 🪠

I had great fun recording with the Trap One team recently - coming (very) soon. You can guess what it's about....

Here's my latest DVD cover design for Reeltime Pictures. If Doctor Who props, costumes, effects and events are your bag, then this is for you! Coming later in the year!

I have removed most of my music from Spotify. As a means of maintaining a presence there, for now, I have left enough music to keep my This is The Light Dreams playlist. Anything new, and the rest of my back catalogue can be found on Bandcamp, Apple Music, Tidal and Deezer.

New blog post: yes, I'm still ranting about this. thelightdreams.wordpress.com/2025/10/05/a...

This is a great book, really well designed. Recommended!

Today's exciting delivery: a few postcard prints of gorgeous classic science fiction film artwork by the brilliant @barnabyedwards.bsky.social - taken from his new exhibition, 'Brave New Worlds' at the Exeter Picturehouse.

I bought my copy yesterday of my friend @toohot4tv.bsky.social's book. Can't wait to read it.

Here's a new blog post about the cover art for Andrew Hook's new science fiction book, Body and Soul - coming October 10 from @elsewhen.press... thelightdreams.wordpress.com/2025/09/01/c...

My painting exhibition, 'Brave New Worlds: A Century of Science Fiction Cinema', opens tomorrow. Here's the final poster - perhaps the film that started it all, a warning of the dangers of AI. This is painted on gold-fleck paint, so it glimmers metallically as you view it from different angles. 🤖

Cover reveal! Here's my illustration and design for Body and Soul, the new science fiction novel from Andrew Hook. Coming in October from @elsewhen.press

Despite the influx of new Doctor Who books, Evolution of the Toy Dalek remains unique in that it's the first comprehensive book solely dedicated to Dalek merchandising, covering six decades, and over 300, mostly original photographs. amzn.eu/d/ci24Vn4 telos.co.uk/shop/doctor-...

Evolution of the Toy Dalek is currently discounted on Amazon. If you've ever wanted a detailed and vibrantly illustrated history of Dalek toys and models from the 1960s to present day, it's time to treat yourself! amzn.eu/d/9kDOFUS

While I've never tired of David Bowie’s 1.Outside since it came out, revisiting it for my book, going through archive material and stuff I'd saved over the years as well as fresh research, is particularly enjoyable. So much to explore! A pivotal moment in David's career.

Work is progressing nicely on my next book project, which will be a dissection of David Bowie’s 1995 masterpiece, 1.Outside. Stay tuned for updates...

A lot of people still prefer to buy physical items. Much of my creative work this year has been about just that with the publication of two comprehensive and lovingly designed books aimed at the Doctor Who community and a new album of atmospheric electronic music. Next project is already under way!

Does anybody have any photographs of David Bowie’s Outside tour of 1995-96 that I could use in a project (credited of course)?

It is Bandcamp Friday time again... come and explore my entire discography (including several titles not available on Spotify etc): thelightdreams.bandcamp.com
