Two fun projects I worked on last year have been released recently.

Firstly, The Rip, an action thriller film starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, is now on Netflix. Had a great time designing sounds for Clinton Shorter for that one.
Feeling I would like to pivot to a career that mainly involves sitting under trees with a notebook and pen.

What is this career?

Starving poet?

Imagine being a hit man who had to kill Mark Wahlberg on Ash Wednesday.

Have truly reached that age where if I look up any mild symptom I might have, the returned advice is to generally to get myself measured for a coffin.

Should stop looking things up.

This men’s big air final is absolutely mental.

Reading an interview in a magazine with an electronic artist turned film composer who is, quite rightly, considered something of a sonic/sound design genius.

But, also feeling some pride because I know he is a customer of mine. And therefore, seeks out my sound design for his work too!

Had enough of the big beard, so I shaved it off.

Nailed it.

The Lego Christmas village has been packed away for a couple of weeks.

However, something else is stirring…

This men’s slalom’s a bit of a disaster. Bunch if favourites have crashed out as the weather conditions have turned to a blizzard.

The first guy who went down, in clear conditions, is way ahead of the pack.

Just saw that Xing Zhilei, the Chinese DIY influencer, posted an update on his self-built cat town which went viral last year.

There is someone singing really badly in the background of the France v Wales half-time analysis.

REALLY badly.

Beneath Berlin's Potsdamer Platz, an overlooked retail strip has been reborn as a bicycle parking facility and public passage connecting users to the S-Bahn station. Modest in scale but rich in possibilities, it integrates seamlessly into the revitalised entertainment, commercial and office centre.🧵

Whole family glued to the snowcross team event.

Excellent bonus to see Great Britain grab the gold!

How can you not like a sport called Monobob?

The dual moguls is silly.

The idea that the skier who finishes first might not win the race, because there's also judging points for jumps...

Nah, not for me.

I'm usually a bit suspicious about sports that require judges to decide who wins (boxing, figure skating, etc.) but...

Have absolutely loved the half-pipe and big air competitions at this Olympics. I can just switch my brain off and enjoy the magnificence of their bravery and camaraderie.

this sequence in the U.S. women’s curling match was pure cinema

Haha, Jesus, this game.

Obvious handball in the area not given as a penalty and then we concede from the free-kick.

Lack of VAR’s given us so many lifelines in this game! And we’re determined not to take advantage of it.

What the fuck was that?!

Bizot can carry on walking, straight out of the club, thanks.

Absolute fucking moron.

Not massively convinced by this Villa lineup.

No Konsa and Martinez, in particular, makes me nervous.
