A fantastic obituary by Cathi Unsworth, for the legend Roger Burton, who left us just over a week ago. Without Roger and the Horse Hospital there may never have been a Strange Attractor... www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

This is an engaging, important, and ultimately terrifying book – really can't wait to get it out into the world this autumn...

Well this is certainly the most remarkable thing I've seen in a while, thank you @nothingistrue.net I did check and sadly there is only the one song, but frankly I'm not sure if the world was ready for any more... www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-8T...

We had a fantastic time being Teleplasmiste @theseanceradio.bsky.social event at Rose Hill Tavern, Brighton last Saturday, immersed in great music and surrounded by wonderful people.

Can't wait for this on Saturday – Teleplasmiste are on vibrant form - we'll hope to see a few of you in Brighton...

Today on Getting Spooked: An exclusive preview chapter of my 2021 book The Fortean Influence on Science Fiction. This chapter specifically covers the life and work of Charles Fort, hinting at his future massive influence on the science fiction genre. tannerfboyle.substack.com/p/a-fortean-...

Next Tuesday I'm hosting a zoom presentation by Greg Eghigian, looking back at the alien abduction panic of the 1980s and 1990s. Greg's book 'After The Flying Saucers Came', published by OUP last year, has become the essential history of the UFO story. thelasttuesdaysociety.org/event/alien-...

Can’t wait for this, a first Brighton outing for Teleplasmiste, alongside some of the city’s brightest sonic beacons.

Off to sunny Stroud for the mega #neoancients fest this weekend, kicking off tonight with a double bill of Rituals in the Dark, my witchcraft on film presentation, and a Luminous Foundation live set at Klangtone records. Tomorrow I speak to Rupert Russell about his film 'The Last Sacrifice'.

I had a great time talking to the brilliant @tannerfboyle.bsky.social about UFO cultures, paranormal psyops and the abuses of enchantment. Tune in here…

Very excited to be taking Teleplasmiste to Brighton in June for Séance for the Summer, alongside these other fantastic performers. We're also playing Acid Horse on 24 May. We're up for doing more gigs, so do shout if you'd like us to entrance your event...

Our Spring Sale continues through the rest of April, with mind-bending bargains on some of our most (un)popular titles. Stocks are strictly limited to what's left in our London warehouse - catch 'em while you can! strangeattractor.greedbag.com/dept/~spring...

The AAA's aims and actions have never felt more prescient. I wish I could make this - but hopefully some of you can. I have fond memories of astronaut training with fellow travellers on Parliament Hill, and facilitating one of their closing sessions at the 1999 Fortean Times Unconvention.

Thank you to everyone who has signed our petition, 6,000+! Authors deserve to have a livelihood and compensation from their work, if you haven't signed do so now 👇

Hello Strangers! We're having an enormous Spring Sale on our web site, with deep discounts across a number of titles. These offers are only available direct from us, while stocks last, until the end of April. Click this link to discover what's reduced: strangeattractor.greedbag.com/dept/~spring...

I'm pleased to have played a small role in the unearthing of this Maltese psych monster - Hypogeum 68, by UFO67. Can a recording that no one knew existed even be called lost? Who cares! All that matters is Hypogeum 68! urthona.bandcamp.com/album/hypoge...

Last call for the launch event for this behemoth tomorrow night @treadwellsbooks.bsky.social An evening of occult post punk magic and memories with the one and only Phil Hine. The special HB edition of the book will be on sale, along with the paperback. www.treadwells-london.com/events-1/phi...

What Leon Theremin did next

Looking forward to this! I’ll also be there tomorrow evening, playing a selection of heroic tunes at the opening event - cuts from Hawk The Slayer to Final Fantasy VIII. Hoping for some suitably epic dance moves on display.

Keeping it weird out West-ish, another instalment of the fab Neo Ancient's festival in Stroud, Gloucestershire on Mayday weekend. I'll be presenting Rituals in the Dark: British Witchcraft on Film, on Friday, and performing in full kosmische mode with Neil Mortimer as Luminous Foundation. Join us!

Release thee acid horse!

Join us in The Village this May bank holiday weekend, for the third Acid Horse micro music festival, programmed by @jahduran.bsky.social and myself. We've got around 30 artists on the bill this year – here @thequietus.com select a few of their highlights. thequietus.com/news/acid-ho...

I’m looking forward to listening to what I’m sure will be an insightful and entertaining conversation

Hope to see a few of you at what is sure to be a wonderful evening of post-punk occult history, humour and wisdom.

Thanks to Michael Rodham Heaps for this beautiful review of our new Teleplasmiste LP over at Freq - “Yeah, Téléplasmiste have manage to beguile us once more.” Still a few copies of the Ltd vinyl edition available here - teleplasmiste.bandcamp.com/album/of-nat...

Happy Winter Solstice! These photos were taken with a pinhole camera I made from a beer can and left out from Summer to Winter Solstice - a 6 month exposure. Bottom line = Winter Solstice. Top line = Summer Solstice. The lines are the Sun moving across the sky w/some reflections. No line = clouds

Good stuff as ever from Tanner Boyle. Smart lateral thinking about some possible causes for the ongoing US drone panic, harking back to one of my favourite UFO researchers of yore, Leon Davidson – of ECM +CIA = UFO fame – while quite rightly asking "where has all the glitter gone?".

Io Machenalia! All hail the flower-tunick’d priest of nightmare, 77 years ago today

It's a sign of our compartmentalised mediaspheres that the recent UFO/drone invasion of New Jersey has barely hit BS yet. So, here's some level-headed perspective on this significant UFO flap, & ongoing UFOria in the US, from @mickwest.com & @ericalukes.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bk0...
