Lord Puttnam at the OU

Tuesday saw me playing at a reception at the Open University in Milton Keynes, where they were welcoming Lord David Puttnam as Chancellor.

Steve at the Open University - twice!

Held in the new Computing Department building, this was my second visit this year as I also played there as part of a conference on computing and music back in the summer. I had a definite sense of deja vu when I arrived as a large screen was playing a recording of my previous visit on a loop: Unusual, but also apt since my performance involved a variety of looped violin pieces! There were also some fascinating presentations about a variety of music and computer related research which is currently being carried out at the OU.
