Gutted I couldn’t be there but this review is a very neat encapsulation of why Glastonbury is the best festival in the world.
@dorianlynskey.bsky.social takes over TNC today and delivers the only review of Glastonbury you need. He got a lot of steps in:

The Wirral is underrated for walking - some really great routes. 13.2 mile walk this weekend completed. Training for the Macmillan Mighty Hike in five weeks (😬) - please donate! www.justgiving.com/team/thewate...

Six weeks today, my wife and I are walking the Macmillan Mighty Hike! Macmillan were an incredible help when I lost both my mum and dad to cancer. Anything you could give would be so, so appreciated. If you can’t donate, just an RT would be amazing. Thank you! www.justgiving.com/team/thewate...

If you've ever marvelled at the vaulted Victorian subterranea of Liverpool's Williamson tunnels you have The Heritage Centre to thank. Unfortunately, it will be closing for good on June 1st if they can't raise £12k.
Here's how you can help

Saw a circumzenithal arc above my garden - an upside down rainbow sometimes called a ‘smile in the sky’ caused by refraction of sunlight through ice crystals. Apparently not rare but often out of sight above the clouds.

Saw @pigsx7.bsky.social at Birkenhead’s marvellous @futureyard.org last night - doom sludge metal glam stomp-a-rama! Wonderful stuff. Congratulations to Luka (sp?) for winning the Headbanger Of The Night Award. #musicsky #pigsx7

Really fantastic long read from @nplusonemag.com about Netflix turning art into content. Similar stories floating around about Spotify. These companies don’t care what you’re playing as long as you’re playing something. Very worrying for creative people. www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/ess...

In 2024 I designed the video backdrop for Alan Bleasdale’s Boys From The Blackstuff by James Graham that played at the National Theatre Olivier and in the West End. Hopefully 2025 will have more exciting work in store!

Really excellent Folk Implosion show last night at Yes in Manchester. Natural One always sounded like it was from another planet - one of my favourite songs of the 90s. Lou Barlow is a bass guitar hero! #musicsky #manchester

Very sad to hear Frank Auerbach has died. Always loved his charcoal and chalk portraits, worked and reworked to give them an incredible life and intensity.

🧵Recently, I set out to create new digital artwork that can't be replicated/imitated by AI. It seems to me that AI's Achilles heel is its failure to deliver true details, or rather that its seemingly complex imagery is actually specious - the illusion of detail; it often doesn't stand up to scrutiny
