Everything Reminds Me Of Something Else
Ermose is a black hole on the internet where I keep all my music, videos, art and writing that's been published here there and everywhere, all in one place. At times it operates as an occasional blog. It's the home of my '2020 Ambient' blog, where I (sometimes) write about ambient, electronic, and instrumental music released in the year 2020.
​
Human Head is my band & art project.
We've released an EP called 'Sorry, I Wasn't Listening' and a single called 'Monsterhouse'
through Beth Shalom Records.
Dyddiau Du is a social hub, a space for art and literature, a community library.
Led by queer/neurodivergent folk, for queer/neurodivergent folk.
I co-run it with Rey Hope and Lucy Smith who, alongside our fantastic volunteers, keep it from drowning.
It's a sober, alcohol-free space where we curate art exhibitions, facilitate writing and art workshops, host open mics, etc. It's home to Cardiff Collage Club and the occasional Dyddiau Du Film Club.
We are available for private hire, so drop us an email. Also follow us on Twitter & Instagram!
