Kula Shaker have recently released their fourth studio album, Pilgrim’s Progress. Their first two albums, ‘K’ and “Peasants Pigs and Astronauts” before their split at the eclipse in 1999 are amazing.

Stonehenge at the Summer Solstice 2009
It’s just over a month since the summer solstice, and, if you have never spent the night at Stonehenge with 35,000 other people, this short film should hopefully give you a hint of the sights, sounds and atmosphere. The film starts in the evening as the sun sets, through to partying in the dark of [...]
A short tour of the British Museum made shorter
A short tour of the British Museum made shorter from Tom Goskar on Vimeo. I took a little wander around the British Museum’s Great Court and some upper galleries, and filmed as I went on my cameraphone. The original video was 11 minutes long, sped up here by 800%, so I suppose it’s a 24mph [...]

HD Video Sharing
Tired of those tiny video offerings on YouTube? 320×240 video at 15 frames per second is starting to look a bit tired on large screen resolutions. At work I’m lucky enough to have a new iMac with a 24″ screen running at 1920×1200, and trust me, YouTube starts to look a little… inadequate… on my [...]
Video from the top of Salisbury Cathedral’s 404′ spire
Scared of heights? Don’t watch this video, taken by conservators working at the top of Salisbury Cathedral’s 404′ spire. That’s a long way up, with not much to hold on to. With lots of wind. To those familiar with Salisbury, here’s a closer view of that little red light we see way up in the [...]
