yr3wk46 mopho juno 6

yr3wk46 mopho juno 6 improvisation from longcat on Vimeo.



i was in such a rush to get ready to "broadcast" by sunday that i forgot to do the last bit, putting it here & on my blog & my webspace...

the blue sky/clouds footage was shot on friday the 8th may, and it was when i was cycling home from there that all the phone calls, assumptions, photographing happened as told in the last post...

Charlotte Sarah


i spent an idyllic hour or so on the thames... filming footage for last week's improvisation that i'm putting together this weekend...

lowtide getting lower, me on a bank near the side of the thames, with receding water all around...


anyway as i'm getting ready to come home i start thinking about M & D and the impending event...

so i ring their house and they don't answer...


a little later i'm cycling through town and i can't stop myself from ringing D's mobile..

after 2 rings he sends me to the answerphone...


this is significant i say to myself and i start singing to myself about how the 8th of may is going to be my neice/nephew's birthday...

i leave the centre of the city and i can't stop myself from ringing felinity and we speak for 25 minutes or so...


by which time i'm in finsbury park...

i relax as i approach home and a couple of streets away i take these pictures roughly as my brand new baby niece Charlotte Sarah is being born...

fando e lis



so awhile ago, old friend J who mainly lives in mexico these days (i think) told us about this director whose name i don't know how to spell - jodorouski -

so we put his films on our lovefilm list...

many months later the 1st DVD arrives and we watched the 2 films on it yesterday, the 1st film was great - the cravat - short, very funny, arresting...

the 2nd film was disturbing... it seemed too long, it had lovely, great moving bits but also abusive, nasty bits too...

this scene i present to you is from about midway into the film, just as you're beginning to realise that all is not well...

yr3wk45 (honestly) mopho & drums

yr3wk45 Mopho & Drums from longcat on Vimeo.



last week i presented the LHC 2.1 video as yr3wk45, but it was only a brief lack of thinking...

last week thursday i recorded this here improvisation with lovely D on the drums, it's the 1st of the improvisations to go through the slightly longer allowed time frame, from here on in i'm improvising, then posting last week's improvisation on sunday...

it gives me more time to work on the sound/video for the improv's... it came about because the LHC 2.2 was taking forever and a day to get ready and i realised that sometimes i do need more than a few days to make it happen...

so LHC 2.1 went out the following week (when this one should have gone out by the old system), even though i had recorded this one already...

and in fact on friday i recorded the improvisation that's going out next sunday...

lovely thing with the juno & the mopho...

i hope it makes sense...
