Beginning to set up a home cyberdeck off grid that doubles as a shedtronic info library. Eventually will be powered by solar. #shedserver #shedtronics #cyberdeck

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records. Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'. Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Just signed this. It's easy to do and only takes a few minutes. notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...

I'm revisiting an earlier make on substack, thinking what's the next wearable. Possibly it's going to be a MP3 player in an old cassette tin with optional glitch tools. shedtronic.substack.com/p/spikenzie-...

For it is Plough Monday and many a Plough witch is out in the county beer begging. (Text taken from the Hookland Writer's Bible).

Wrapped 30 days of Noisevember with @airwiggles, a daily sound design challenge using Ableton/Logic/Reaper, Audacity, field recordings, p5.js and Unreal Engine. I added a rule that every piece must be visual generative or immersive. youtube.com/playlist?lis... #sounddesign #gameaudio #glitchart

Noisevember 2025 Day 10 Liminal Space A blue-tiled abandoned pool, distant sloshes, mechanical hums, a tannoy from nowhere inside Unreal 5.6. Just space, acoustics, and something gently wrong. youtu.be/Zg0T3oIXdfA?... #Noisevember #SoundDesign #Liminal #UnrealEngine #Hauntology #Shedtronic

For today’s experiment I ran earlier Noisevember recordings through Unstable Memory, my own prototype glitch-powered audiovisual tool designed for breaking, bending sound. #Noisevember #Noisevember2025 #UnstableMemory #GlitchArt #GlitchAesthetics #Databending #SoundDesign #CreativeCoding #Shedtronic

Noisevember Day 8 – Gritty A coarse, grinding patch built in VCV Rack using unstable modulation, feedback, and cross-modulated hums. #Noisevember #Noisevember2025 #VCVRack #ModularSynth #ExperimentalSound #SoundDesign #Noise #CrossModulation #Shedtronic #Gritty #ElectronicMusic #Airwiggles

Noisevember Day 7 – Crystal Ball Built a strange little narrative device and triggered it with MetaSounds in Unreal. Soundtrack built in Ableton. Slowly going to turn it into a weird little world of uncanny delights. #unrealengine #metasounds #abletonlive #noisevember #noisevember2025 #SoundDesign

For Noisevember 2025 Day 6 - Monster. The setting, an abandoned industrial facility. Echos metal corridors and shifting tones to create movement around dynamic EQ, low-frequency buildup, and evolving modulation. The sound of fear taking form. #Noisevember2025 #SoundDesign #GameAudio #FilmAudio

Noisevember 2025 – Day 5: Remix Reworking fragments of earlier recordings into something haunted and rhythmic. youtu.be/FOGcAMAbtD4 #Noisevember #SoundDesign #GameAudio #Hauntology #DarkAmbient

A slow dive into mechanical space Doppler echoes, drones, and a heartbeat somewhere pulsing through static. Not perfect, but that’s the point: make something, learn something, drift on. #Noisevember #noisevember2025 #SoundDesign #Ambient #Experimental #Shedtronic #logicpro #reaper #vitling #crypt

Noisevember Day 3 – “Rainforest” A synthetic rainforest atmos built entirely from synthesized sound. Just oscillators, filters, and noise sculpted into birds, rainfall, and unseen creatures. #Noisevember #SoundDesign #SynthRainforest #SoundDesignChallenge #ShedtronicWorkshop #LogicPro

Day 2 of #Noisevember25 — “Liquid.” Every sound here came from found water recordings: humming kitchen pipes, shower flow, rain against PVC, and gurgling drain, layered into something rhythmic, mechanical. #SoundDesign #Shedtronic #ExperimentalAudio #FieldRecording #NoiseArt #LogicPro #p5js

My first Noisevember 2025 submission. Day 1 – “Rhythmic” Hidden pulses in static and machine noise. EMF, radio, and train-station drones turned into a breathing rhythm. 🎧 youtu.be/o-NLHMKnsvQ #Noisevember25 #SoundDesign #FieldRecording #Hauntology

#Noisevember25 is back! Here's an advanced look at your prompts for next month - starting on November 1st at airwiggles.com/noisevember! #musicproduction #sounddesign

Version 0.3 includes: • Live audio sample manipulation • Built-in & user sample support • Reactive glitch visuals • Toggleable FX (verb/echo/filter) • RGB flicker shedtronic.gumroad.com/l/unstableme...

I’ve built a standalone early test version of Unstable Memory, a glitchy audio-visual sandbox for Mac & PC. Now on Gumroad (free or donation): 👉 shedtronic.gumroad.com/l/unstablememory

Result! Picked this up at the local recycling centre. A very generous person was about to put it in the bin and I said, you aren’t going to chuck that in there are you? They said that they had no use for it and it didn’t work, so I took it off their hands as a doer-upper. What should I do with it?

Riding through the two tunnels out towards Wellow when this happened. Not seen so many pheasant chicks like this before. #fyp #asmr #audio #sounddesign #cycling #pheasant

WiFi radio ghost just booted. Glitch hums & chips speak in tongues. Prototype live—fragmented voices soon. #shedtronics #diyradio #esp32 #lofihaunt #sdr

Just posted an overview of Unstable Memory — a glitchy, reactive browser instrument. Part databent interface, part hauntological sound tool. Built in p5.js + Web Audio, still mutating. 🧬 open.substack.com/pub/pushingt... #glitchart #webaudio #p5js #hauntology #sounddesign

The Hum called us to walk under its lines, to listen to its songs. The Hum called us to become part of the electric ley of the land. It opened up the way into another England and when it stopped, not all of us made it back. – Tattoo Labyrinth Dave, ex Pylon Person

Even those stones and portal tombs egregiously described as 'minor' have the lithic gravity to pull visitors from the orbits of their lives and into cowshit-carpetted fields. The Long Neolthic's power to transform folk in stone pilgrims is mighty. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

What a great article. Who knew there was a link between The United States of America (band) and Sesame Street?

Browser-based sound/glitch experiment - loops, memory, noise. Built in p5.js & Web Audio. Still unstable. A summer project. What should it do next?” #glitchart #audiovisual #netart #webaudio #sounddesign #fieldrecording #p5js #interfaceart #hauntology #noiselab

Tonight! 6.30pm! In Hartlepool! I'm doing an evening of Haunted Generation stories - tall tales of childhood oddness and urban folklore from the 1970s and '80s. Bagpuss, nuclear war, etc. Part of @crossingthetees.bsky.social, tickets here or just come down... www.crossingthetees.org/.../the-haun...

For #WorldBookDay from so many of us in the #Folklore camp, a book that helped make us what we are. Books are gateways to new worlds, new ways of seeing and new ways of being.

Hello folkies, friends, musical adventurers, and people that want to give me a gig! Right. I’m here. What’s going on? Is it nice? Can I eat it, snog it, or dance on or about its grave?

Ghosts matter. They serve as portals to the past, conduits for all that came before us. They hold a mirror to our hopes, fears, wishes isolation. They are history, legacy, and memory. Ghosts give us a chance to understand. nearlyknowledgeablehistory.blogspot.com/2023/07/the-... #Shropshireday
