I spent first two days of my road trip at Godley Head, Christchurch... motivated by the extreme landscape & potential of #fieldrecording in the WW2 bunkers...

Got home last night from excellent two week road trip around the South Island of Aotearoa - route marked in red, travelled 2,500km/1,500 miles in 2 weeks through some of the most iconic landscapes NZ has to offer - doing lots of #fieldrecording and shooting film! love #nz

Ferocious storm last night! I removed pipes & left mics recording about 9pm. MixPre managed to record six tracks 32/192k for six hours before it filled the 128GB memory card...
You can see the storm slowly petering out...
8040x2 8020x2 8050 + Geophone stuck to roof...

OK that was a total fail... wind too strong & overloading the mics in such constricted space...

Pipes 2v2 out the window is working better!

The wind in #wellington is forecast to be even stronger tonight... so I am preparing v2 of the aoelian pipes!
8 pipes this time, with 8 mics, gaffer taped to my boom

just waiting for the rain to stop

I only have birds for close neighbours & at times I have the opposite issue - will catch myself playing vibraphone in tune with the Tuis

Visited a friend yesterday who has repaired the shutter & lens on my 1898 Instagraph camera... He showed me his camera collection and... lets say I feel better about my bunch of cameras & synths, outboard etc..
