We’re at Fortress Studios with Bolty mastering our sound piece for Grain, the audio art event that’s happening on the Isle of Grain the weekend after next. It’s been a strange journey making the piece, but really exciting to now be so close… and working with Bolty again is amazing. He worked on all the electronics for our Silent Sound machine. It’s going well, and pizza is on the way…
