Shaw’s Atmosphere of Mona, a book of poetry and photography, was published by Annwyn House in 2020.
Mason Lindahl is a guitarist and composer based in New York City. His finger-picking style is largely influenced by minimalism and classical music.

Lindahl’s recent record Kissing Rosy in the Rain was released by Tompkins Square, 2021.
A work by Dominic J. Jaeckle, Polly Barton, Mason Lindahl & Matthew Shaw. Grounded in a book that collects a roll-of-film’s worth of co-dependent photographs and prose-poems by artist Hoagy Houghton and writer Dominic Jaeckle (36 Exposures, forthcoming from Dostoyevsky Wannabe), A Table of Contents is a quilt of first- and second-hand reticulated reflections and ratiocinations; a ‘disembodied voice-over’ for a set of absent images, memories and other assorted totem poles.

Sonic Darts # Ode to the River Wye ▾
In this episode, Dan Linn-Pearl has produced a montage and homage to the river Wye which flows near his home in the border town of Hay. Field recordings, hydrophone capture and improvised synthesiser sketches are broken up with audio from a film made by Friends of the Upper Wye.
This collective has organised a citizen science project to test water pollution levels and seek out solutions to reverse the decline of the river and its wildlife. In recent years, a build up of algae is threatening the ecosystem of the river. Evidence shows an increased amount of nitrates and phosphates in the water.
These are often a waste product of farming and in particular the 'run-off' from the intensive chicken farming which takes place throughout the area. Other potential causes are the increasingly inadequate sewage systems and the 'government policy' which allows raw sewage to be distributed directly into the river.

Lepke B: Looperama #1 - Mello Gold ▾
In this first episode Mello Gold:
In 1967, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera approached the Krofft Brothers to design costumes for a television show which would feature animated and live-action segments, with the whole show hosted by a bubblegum pop group of anthropomorphic characters, played by actors in fleecy costumes similar to later Sid and Marty Krofft characters such as H.R. Pufnstuf.
The Banana Splits Adventure Hour premiered on NBC on September 7, 1968.
Each show represented a meeting of the Banana Splits Club, and the wraparounds featured the adventures of the club members, who doubled as a musical quartet, meant to be reminiscent of the Beatles and the Monkees.
Unlike their human predecessors, however, the Banana Splits were bizarre, anthropomorphic animals: rhythm guitarist Drooper was a lion, lead guitarist Fleegle was a dog, keyboardist Snorky was an elephant, and drummer Bingo was a monkey.
The Banana Splits' bubblegum pop rock 'n' roll was provided by studio professionals, including Joey Levine (I Enjoy Being a Boy, It's a Good Day for a Parade), Al Kooper , Barry White (Doin' the Banana Split),and Jimmy Radcliffe provided his song (I'm Gonna Find a Cave).
Additional material features the Micro Ventures of Professor Carter and his two teenage kids, Mike and Jill, who use a shrinking machine to shrink themselves and their dune buggy to miniature size, to explore and experience the world from the perspective of an insect.
Professor Carter, Mike, and Jill change to micro-size to observe an ant colony ...Groovy!
Lepke B's blissful disregard for the sacred in life has placed him as one of the testcard knights with a totally unique approach to sound plunderphonics and visual art.

AA+ DRONE OPERATØR RADIØ #15 ▾
This episode was created entirely by the AI. Stop! Not quite. There was a painstaking search and editing process. And all the lyrics were handwritten by Drone Operatør. But yes, all the music here was invented by a machine brain. Of course it learned from humans. Illegal data extraction, blah blah blah....
But this is it. Here we are! When the cold, damp smell of the rehearsal room hits your nose and the smoky, smelly pub concert creeps into your brain, just enjoy the ride. You've never understood exactly how sound travels on radio waves, to begin with, so what? This is our testament. The AI testament.
