WTF?? It's only Colin Newman from the seminal Wire coming to the Blue Moon with his long-running partnership with Malka Spigel of Minimal Commpact. Immersion prides itself on a diversity in approach and an ability to be both self-contained and a vehicle for collaboration.

Happy 80th anniversary of Hitler killing himself in his bunker to all who celebrate, which, as I now understand it, is not everybody

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

"It's not really enjoyable to make music now. It takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of practice. I think the majority of people don't enjoy the majority of the time they spend making music." Not only does this dumb fuck have no idea what he's talking about, but he's convinced that he's a genius.
