Dean Watson Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Is it Skys new ultra high bandwidth satellite TV and broadband dish? That'll take more than a couple of B and Q screws to fix to the side of the house and adorn the beauty of the stone cladding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Enjoyed Bluedot a lot. Loads of lectures etc, could not attend them all. I managed Anti Matter Dr Who Science Parasites Pulsars Star trek v Star Wars Volcanology Why you should believe in the Big bang The Dark Web The Cool Universe Observing the Dark Side of the Universe The Square Kilometre Array And finally Humans in Space, What next? Not a bad haul for a few days. tuckstar and Tweedledee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Sounds like some very interesting and varied lectures. Did you enjoy any music as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 the music was OK some quite good, some of it a bit shouty, but the only band I actually knew was Hawkwind The rest were like Alt J, Pixies and others who were at Glastonbury. No Ramstein, prodigy or anything like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hawkwind? Didn't think they were still going. I remember Silver Machine which is now a 45 year old song from when Lemmy was their lead singer!! I thought I heard that Brian Eno was playing there. He did all the weird sounding electronic bits for David Bowie, Roxy Music and many other bands. But I see now that he didn't perform any music, but did the light show projected onto the Jodrell Bank dish. He somehow coupled it live to correspond with the radio signals being received by the telescope! So he's still up to some very unusual stuff after all these years, which is what I remember him for. Don't suppose many have even heard of Brian Eno. Listen to his instrumental track "Moss Garden" on David Bowies 1977 Heroes album. But to get the effect, you need it through stereo headphones. My kids have been to see Alt J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 (edited) Brian Eno, met him when he stayed in my mates flat one night in the 70s. Exactly when in the 70s, I can't say as it was all a blur Edited July 15, 2017 by philjay Tweedledee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweedledee Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Very nice, got it thanks Sheila. I'm sure the light show added to the ambiance. It took about 10 minutes to download on this dodgy french wifi where I'm staying, and at first it errored until I installed a quicktime player for Android.
