My #AudioMo for June 23 is something I wrote in 2017, about a group of young people playing Plague, Inc. and what I thought about it at the time.

My #AudioMo for June 22, and I'm looking at pieces of paper and reflecting on what they mean, with memories of those distant and lost.

June 21, and my #AudioMo tonight is a remembrance of Hugh Mellor, the philosopher and a former teacher of mine, who died today. With passing boats.

A solstice day on the river and the riverbank, involving turning boats, ducks, and the way joy pushes out despair

On June 19, as we head towards the solstice, my #AudioMo is a reflection on the week, and lockdown, and the importance of understanding how the pandemic is experienced elsewhere.

It's June 18 but I have little to say for today's #AudioMo. I'll read Cheryl Misak's Frank Ramsay biography instead

For my #AudioMo for June 17 I've disinterred a fairly random note from over a year ago about time travel and jewel thefts. It came from a time when I travelled on trains.

In my #AudioMo for June 16 I'm reflecting on #Bloomsday and the summer to come, and wondering what will happen to holidays and travel in 2020 - and what this means for those of us who are used to the summer being a slow time in the office.

It's June 15 and a change of topic for me in #AudioMo - away from space, and into time as I reflect on the small object that sits on my desk and keeps me company as I write.

Heading into #AudioMo for June 14 and I'm picking up on the extended conversation about presence and space in our blended world, with @katesparkle to @Omaniblog @willsh & @diva_diplomatic - but this time from the beach

In my #AudioMo for June 13 I reflect on the ways we can reconfigure public space as we adapt to Covid-19, and how we need those who own private space to adapt.

My AudioMo contribution for June 12 is a reflection on commuting - or its absence. And a realisation that it'll never go back to the way it was before.

My #AudioMo post for June 11 is a meditation on how hard it can seem to change systems.

Here's my #AudioMo for June 10. I wrote a thing and recorded it for @marcusromer's ShedX and so I'm playing the first part of it here and you can listen to the rest via Marcus

Day 9 of #AudioMo and I've been on air for @digitalplanet - and I'm reflecting on the importance of context and location, and how to make a space feel different when we many of us are spending so much time in one location.

On Day 8 of #AudioMo things are a bit pressured as it's a long work day, but I have the Reflection app to keep me calm, with generative ambient music and imagery courtesy of Peter Chilvers and Brian Eno. Stay safe.

The weft of our daily lives has been unwound for many of us since SARS-COV-2 found its human hosts. Do we take this opportunity to rethink the warp, too, or are we content to weave the fabric on the same pattern.

For today's #AudioMo I'm reflecting on a new book I'm reading, Cheryl Misak's life of the philosopher Frank Ramsay, and why deep reading matters in these turbulent times.

Day Five of #AudioMo, back on the boat. Another day, another recording, this one is less good quality audio but I hope the ideas are sound as I reflect on the nature of the network we all rely on. 

Day Four of #AudioMo and I'm outside Relevant Record Cafe on Mill Road with a coffee and a sandwich talking about masks and plugging the new book @GearsForQueers which you *should* read!
