  1. Début octobre sortira en K7 le nouvel album de Persica 3, "Cardinal" ! Très contente de retravailler encore une fois avec ce projet parisien qu'on peine à croire solo. Voici la pochette !

  2. I suspect that a #cassetteRecorder with AC bias would do a better job capturing and playing back #FLdigi / #FLamp encoding for storing and retrieving files. Better than the ones I have with DC bias

  3. To get the sibilance into a reasonable range and to not lose the base in the #cassette fuzz (DC bias recorder). I am currently using a 2-pass "Full Base" EQ and the compressor in #VLC to pre-process the file. Heavier bass and lighter tenor seems to result in "less snake hissing" vocals when playing the tape back.

  8. I was mad that I don't own a cassette version of Dio's Holy Diver, so I'm making my own. I almost forgot I could do that. Tapes are cool.

  13. I stumbled across a cassette tape of an Alvvays album I didn't realized I owned, so on my first walk of the day I blasted that through my cheap 5 dollar wired headphones on my generic brand cassette player and had a lovely time. Dreamy.

  27. J'ai acheté quelques CDs en #Finlande (oui, le folkeux achète encore des CD en 2026), dont un sans en connaître la musique mais j'ai craqué sur la pochette. Avoue, c'est craquant.

    Il s'agit de la réédition de 2004 d'une #cassette de 1992, musique finlandaise dans l'État de New York.

    Les morceaux se révèlent être très sympas (à mon goût), dans l'esprit #bœuftrad
    Ils indiquent que tout est probablement trad.

    🤷 Je t'en mets les #MP3 soigneusement tagués ici :

  31. Looking Ahead: My Intentions For 2026

    About this time last year, I jotted down some intentions for 2025, ‘a few ideas of the things that I really want to do over the coming twelve months’. I did quite well with these: I resurrected a few old cameras, like the Kodak 1A and 3A folding cameras, and the Vest Pocket Kodak; I finally got to use the medium format half-frame beastie that’s the Bencini Koroll 2; and I actually used my only 127 film in the Purma Special on a 127 Day this year. I also tumbled down the rabbit hole that was the Rapid film system, which led to some great fun with colour emulsions, redscaling, and even trying some EBS photography, or exposing both sides of the emulsion, and of course I added a load more weird and wonderful cameras to my collection. 

    https://flic.kr/p/2rscu7a

    The only part of my ‘intentions’ for 2025 that I didn’t really get anywhere with was glitching; taking a perfectly good photograph in digital format and altering the data contained in it to produce a corrupted image. As a reminder, images can be glitched in a number of ways: with a Hex Editor, to alter details of individual pixels in an image; processing a digital photograph in a program not intended for editing image files; or using a script in a programming language to corrupt the file. This is known as databending, but there is also circuit bending, which either takes an image and corrupts it using a specially made image processor, or using a camera where the hardware within the camera has been physically altered so that the image saved to the card is corrupted. 

    A corrupted 3D image, taken with the Fujifilm W3 Real 3d stereo digital camera. The file has been databent by processing the file in the audio editing program Audacity.

    I already have one circuit bent camera, and also a couple of cameras with failing sensors that produce lovely glitchy images, but I’ve also recently obtained an old Digital8 video camera that I hope will allow me to use a circuit bent device called the Mismatcher Petite to corrupt digital images and videos. This year, I also picked up a scanner, the Epson Perfection v750 Pro flatbed scanner, and a little micro computer to use it with. Onto this computer I’ve loaded some of the programs and applications that I hope will aid me with databending and glitching.

    The Mismatcher Petite, an image modification device the I’ll use in conjunction with the Sony Digital8 camera below.

    I’ve not forgotten film, of course, and although I’m not really in a position to soup and develop my own films, perhaps I can ‘glitch’ some instant film, or deliberately introduce light leaks to exposed 35mm and medium format film, for instance. Of course,  there will always be new (to me) cameras to play with, and if last year is anything to go by, not all of these are light tight, and I have several rolls of expired film to use. With glitching, be it digital  or film, you never quite know what result you’ll get, and that for me is what will make the coming year so exciting. 

    A digital image taken with an Olympus Pen E-PL1 and a homemade Deakinizer (a wide-angle effect lens held reversed over the lens). The image has been databent by processing the image in the audio editor, Audacity.

  32. How’s your day going? Mine is cleaning the dissolved remains of the drive and counter belts of this old tape recorder and finding replacements. 😅

    I am covered in the black goo, send help!!!

  33. The #FrugalFilmProject, July 2025: The One Where We Tried To Expose Both Sides

    This month I thought it would be fun to try something different with the Golden Wonder (a.k.a the Welta Penti II, half-frame Rapid camera). EBS photography, or Expose Both Sides, is exactly what it sounds like. First exposing a film normally in the camera — with the emulsion side facing the subject — but then reversing the film, reloading that into the camera, and exposing the whole film again — this time with the emulsion side facing away from the subject.

    There are a few factors that need to be borne in mind when conducting EBS photography, like slightly underexposing each side so that the multiple exposures balance out to give a ‘properly exposed’ film, and deciding whether its important to you if the frames on each side are lined up or not. I loaded the Golden Wonder with a canister of Harman Phoenix, but this time I inserted a little bit of film into the take-up canister and marked the position of the film gate on the film. By doing this I hoped that I could line up the frames when I exposed the other side of the film. I reset the frame counter to zero, closed the camera, and fired off two shots to take the counter to ‘1’.

    We took the camera to Barra, where I took photographs around the beach, and later finished the roll in Oliveira do Bairro. When metering the exposures I tried to underexpose the film slightly by taking each image 1-stop under the suggested reading from the Camera Meter app. Once the film was exposed, it was time to turn it over and reload it back into the Golden Wonder. Inside the dark bag I fed the previously exposed film into another Rapid canister, but this time I fed it backwards, as if for redscaling, with the emulsion side facing outwards. 

    Once loaded into the canister, I pulled a bit of film out of the canister until I could see the gate markings that I made for the first exposure. I marked the emulsion side of the film with the markings in the same position and loaded the canisters into the camera so the film was in the same position. I then reset the frame counter to zero, closed the camera, and fired off two shots to take the counter to number ‘1’. By doing this, I hoped that the frames on each side were lined up.

    I took the Golden Wonder on a walk around Águas Boas, a nearby village, and photographed walls, trees and various textures. When taking the photos I held the camera upside down so that the orientation of the images on the both sides would be in the same direction. On completion, the film was taken to Forever Blue in Aveiro and scanned at home with an Epson Perfection v750 Pro flat bed scanner and Epson Scan software. I’ve posted the whole roll in an album on my Flickr, light leaks and all, if you want to see the rest of the images. 

    On return from the lab, looking at the negatives one thing was immediately apparent: the frames weren’t lined up. In fact they were almost precisely 50% off, so there was a big band down the centre of the first exposure which was the ‘between frames’ unexposed part of the film of the second exposure. Also, the ‘redscaled’ second exposure was well overexposed compared to the first exposure, so most of the details of the first exposure were completely lost. I had tried to underexpose the second exposure by going 1-stop unter the exposure, but clearly it didn’t work.

    A couple of the images came out really well, and I was pleased there was some success, but most of them were an unintelligible mess. At the end of the roll, there were a few more redscale images, and these came out really well. I’m definitely going to try some EBS with Rapid films again, though, but next time I might use a different camera to the Golden Wonder. Still, it’s now challenging me to get the frames lined up.

  34. Some Rapid cameras arrived today, bought just for the cassettes. Inside one of them were two cassettes. Peeking out of the cassette was a little bit of film. I think it's colour film, should I get it developed?
