I made a festive jingle for the Implied Music Holiday Composer Challenge. Unusual instruments he said. 😄 I cobbled together a bit of stock footage to go with it. This should set off your festering season nicely! www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdUl...

Shubh Diwali | Oíche Shamhna shona daoibh | Happy Hallowe'en One of my favourites. Originally released in 1992 as part of a performance piece on the subject of death and dying based on The Avalonian Book of the Dead from an original concept by Matthew Sleigh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9cD...

I'm delighted to announce completion of the film I've been working on for the last three years - Shipping Forecast: Liminal Odyssey. It's a non-narrative slow cinema journey between the land, sea and sky of the British coastline featuring an original soundtrack by me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hoyx...

Happy Beltaine one and all! I'm celebrating the arrival of warmer weather by planting out my main crops for the year. I take you through my new moon cycle from weeding and editing, through planting out to sowing more for next month. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-gW...

Looks like Trump plans to exterminate the bald eagle!

Happy Egg Full Moon and Good Yom Tov. To celebrate, here's a video I made just after new moon showing what I'm sowing this spring plus a little garden update. Nothing big or clever this time, just me at home with the vegetables. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iy0V...

Sowed Spinach, Turnips, Rocket, Mustard, Basil, Aquilegia, Fritillaries, Hollyhocks, Poached Egg plants and Pinks today. Tomorrow I shall sow some Broad beans, Chickpeas, Radish and Coriander outside. One more full moon (Chaste moon) until Easter. The growing season has begun!

To wish you all a lovely Lupercalia, I've belatedly uploaded my video diary for Imbolc featuring my two greatest obsessions: composting and composition. www.youtube.com/watch?v=004V...

Just watched this chronology of neolithic architecture by my favourite video maker. Highly recommended hot chocolate viewing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX5P...

New compost bins facing their first big test with storm Éowyn. I need to create a more sturdy roof - I had to put the flimsy tarp back in place before breakfast today. Not my favourite way to start the day!

Some more garden photos. Garlic and broad beans doing well, still harvesting kale!

Rebuilt compost area ready for the new season 🙂

Howlsav an gwav lowen onnen hag oll! Grianstad an Gheimhridh sona daoibh go léir! Happy winter solstice one and all! www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs7m...

The live version of our solstice carols, recorded on midwinter's day 2013 is available on bandcamp. Downloads include free sheet music PDF so you can all sing along! timhawthorn.bandcamp.com/album/live-o...

Solstice is only a couple of weeks away, so here's some more seasonal cheer! youtu.be/yFLhz8S_MEI

Celebrating my first blockage. Profile says "I am god-fearing woman", picture of fearless cleavage. I'm thinking perp's first language has no indefinite object.

Another great Norman Iles reconstruction to the Burgundian tune! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcQF...

My version of this Kipling / Bellamy classic appears to have clocked up nearly 5k views and lots of positive comments! www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-uP...

Today's job is rebuilding the compost heaps. Collected seven pallets yesterday, so now the construction begins!

Such an amazing pic and place

An alternative carol for solstice www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs7m...

This is a selection of restored solstice carols. Our modern day carols probably evolved from a tradition of pre-Christian sung fertility dances, which is believed to have survived up to the 14th Century in Britain. timhawthorn.bandcamp.com/album/carols...

Here is a taster of a feature-length film I've been writing the music for for over two years. It's a collaboration with Jules Bywater-Lees, who has travelled the coast of the British Isles filming some spectacular landscape footage. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yhe4...

In memoriam Phil Lesh (March 15, 1940 – October 25, 2024) This is me, Jim Peters and Will Greenwood; Winter Solstice 2013 Can't think of any better way to honour him. ❤ soundcloud.com/timflatus/bo...
