Notes / Essays / Process
WRITING
What I’m thinking about while I’m actually making things.
All Writing
The Tunnel Under Newquay: Chasing the Fistral–Red Lion Passage
In September 1888, somebody in Newquay was sufficiently irritated by an argument about smuggling caves to write a letter. Another correspondent had apparently said there were no such caves.
The Man Who Shouted Fish: Huer’s Hut and the People Behind the Pilchards
You could mistake Newquay’s Huer’s Hut for something built to improve a postcard. A little white building on the headland. The sea behind it. Just enough character to make you point a camera at it.
The Cemetery Above the Beach: What Newquay’s Barrowfields Still Remember
“Barrowfields” sounds like one of those place names you can use for years without ever stopping to ask what it means. A place to cross. Some grass by the coast. A name that tells you where to meet somebody.
Songs / Sound / Process
MUSIC
Releases, artwork, destinations and the stories around making them.

Making / Made / Learning / Abandoned
THINGS
Products, experiments, tools and older work — kept with their real state attached.
All Things
Why I Built Music Kite Connect
A pass is only useful when it connects identity, place and permission without turning the whole product into a ticketing system.
The Jargon Laundry
Paste your website copy and it marks every phrase you share with ten thousand other websites, then scores how dirty the wash was.
The Gig Is Everywhere and Nowhere
A live event can exist on six platforms and still be hard to find. Music Kite is an attempt to make the scattered fragments agree.
When a Map Stops Being a Map
A festival map starts as artwork and becomes a coordinate system, a data model and a promise that the thing on screen matches the ground.
Practical / Useful / Build along
LEARN
Walkthroughs, useful resources and practical teaching from work done for real.
All Learn
Cornwall Had More Railways. Did That Mean Better Transport?
Cornwall’s lost railway map is persuasive. But coverage, speed and the ability to get home are different things—and the timetable does not always agree with the nostalgia.
False Lights, Shipwrecks and Dark UX: Why Tricking Customers Backfires
Cornish wrecking folklore gave us false lights on dangerous coasts. Modern dark patterns do something similar online — improving a metric while making the experience worse.
The Solo Engine: How Solopreneurs Run Lean with Practical AI
AI can make a solo business dramatically more capable, but only when it removes real friction. The useful part is orchestration, judgement and knowing what not to automate.

FIGURE OUT?
Sometimes that means untangling an idea. Sometimes it means making or building something. Sometimes it becomes a longer collaboration.
