I'll be making my BBC Radio 6 Music debut this week with a Freak Zone Playlist exploring the winning and highly commended entries from this year's Sound of the Year Awards. Tune in on Thursday morning, at midnight UK time, or stream it on BBC Sounds afterwards.

Join us at Project Divfuse next weekend for an interactive installation based on sounds and visuals derived from sewing machines native to the Central Saint Martins fashion department.

Tune into Resonance FM on Thursday 24 April at 8pm to hear my conversation with Jem Finer about his 1000-year-long composition Longplayer [@longplayertrust.bsky.social].
