Heading South

We finally made it back safe and sound early Wednesday morning after a 5 week trip in the campervan with the kids…

France, Northern Spain, West Portugal, Southern Portugal, South West Spain then right through the heart of Spain and back into France for the late night ferry bringing us home to a damp and dreary UK. Many great memories and lots of great food made for a wonderful trip and further encouragement to one day give up the rat race and take a few years out on the road… That’s the dream anyway!

Normal service will resume on Fluid over the coming days.

* Field recordings taken on the journey along with audio from Spheruleus’s ‘Dissolve‘, an album we listened to over and over again into the wee hours of the morning.

I used the drawbacks and idiosyncracies of the camera to come up with a technique that produced very other-wordly and dreamy photographs and instantly drew the parallel [...]
