Hello. How's it going? 

I'm back on the video trail for the next song (and have a few planned throughout the year - ooh, mysterious). In this video, there's a clip of a few seconds that currently has some of my own photos in it as placeholders. However, I thought it might be fun to cast the net a bit wider and ask if you would like to send in a photo or an image? You can have a read about it, if you like, here - it doesn't have to be professional or anything and it could be a pattern or something abstract like the printout from a dot matrix printer or similar, just anything that could link to the lyric mentioned in the post.

Secondly, you might've seen the imprint “Ursinewave” underneath a couple of releases. It now has a page, which will hopefully blossom into its very own website eventually. There's also t-shirts with a very familiar-looking bear on them, minus the space rocket on fire. 

You can click on the excellent tee below to see more of that sort of thing. Do you remember the Bearsville logo on some of the older Sparks records? That was sort of an inspiration, as well as old Soviet logos, plus the fonts on Björk CDs and fonts that look like, um, sine waves (patch cabling has also been mentioned, which is a good shout too). I like how happy the bear looks. We should all aspire to that, especially when we're making stuff.

Here are some delicious links, fresh (ish) off the internet:
