I’ve planned another trip to the UK! I’ll be in #Manchester from July 6 to 10, and in #London from July 10 to 17. Conveniently, I’ll be there for #FetishWeek! In fact, I’m teaching a #Masterclass on #EroticHypnosis! 😵‍💫

If you’re interested in meeting up with me, for a chat, #hypno, or both, let me know!

Nonetheless it is distinctly encouraging that some #labour campaigners have been allowed to develop such techniques and that these have led to positive results. It must be hoped that this practice will be adopted more widely between now and #UKGeneralElection2024. Their early adoption and development would be particularly helpful in #london well ahead of the elections for #mayor and #assembly in may nest year!

Inaugural test flight of my putative live set-up.

First thought: I need a small, powered mixer (Bastl Bestie?)

Second thought: The #Eurorack #modular hardware set-up is not yet completed.

Third thought: The logistics of carrying all this around on #London buses/Tubes is scary.

Where are we at? Test shows this set-up can (and does) work - BUT I need to give a lot more thought to the amount of hardware.

But now it's time for more #HotBeanBeverage

A pretty big deal in #London,, where the Metropolitan Police are going to stop replying to most mental health calls after August 31. Sounds like a good idea — police have no mental health expertise — but I sure hope the right alternative responders will be in place. It's not clear how that will happen.

First trip to Uxbridge tube station at the western end of the Metropolitan and Piccadilly Lines today, and really enjoyed having a look around one of Charles Holden's art deco-style stations. The stained glass windows over the entrance are really beautiful.

This week I saw a sign to "Queen Mary and Westfield" outside #StepneyGreen tube station, the photo was taken at 9.45pm as the light was fading.

For years I've been calling the place #QMW not #QMUL. That confused some staff and students when my son and I went there for an open day in 2019.

I have always known it as "Queen Mary Westfield", ever since I met a developer in 1997 who was doing an MSc there. He helped me learn PERL.

So it's not my imagination. Proof! It is QMW!

What have we done to deserve that???

Photography. A black and white photograph of a group of people sitting on a train. On the right sits a blonde woman with white sweater, jeans and jacket on her lap, looking interestedly into her smartphone. The same goes for a dark-haired man in jeans and a dark jacket on the right of the picture. In the middle, a toddler in a baseball cap and striped stockings sits holding a daily newspaper. It looks interestedly into the newspaper, which it holds upside down. Two generations. Two problems. The photo is not posed, it was taken by chance.

Streetartwall. On the outer wall of a two-story house is sprayed / painted a colorful mural in Japanese manga style. The wall is bordered on the left and right by other tall houses. The mural is designed in dark blue, purple and white. The main character is a finely drawn geisha with waving hair, dressed in an off-the-shoulder kimono. She looks sideways down to a house entrance. She is surrounded by a big city at night, which is slightly blurred and depicted with many bright highlights. The artist stands proudly in front of his huge mural.
