These death masks of Isaac Newton, Oliver Cromwell and John Keats are doing my head in a little. It’s not like seeing a photo or a painting, there’s a real sense a physical person.

They were hiding on a bottom shelf in the wonderfully eccentric Wisbech and Fenland Museum. Well worth a visit.

Delighted to be interviewed by and performing with pedal steel guitarist Joe Harvey-Whyte for his ambient show The Dream Stream on Soho Radio tonight at 10pm UK Time. Joe’s an incredible player, it was a joy.

The show will be available online shortly afterwards, I’ll post a link.

Here’s a nice little taster of the oddness of my showbiz-adjacent life.

And finally, a little bit of video I took at the beginning, with the sound of me saying “ooh that’s funny” removed. This is how it would have appeared to a deaf person…

Running out of photos, but here’s Lauren Laverne’s intro. These may have been the correct subtitles, I’m not sure.

I think Jarvis lost the plot slightly with this moment of improv.

Here’s another classic Pulp chorus

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

I had one of the weirder moments in a weird life last night when I realised that the Black Mirror episode Playthings was inspired by Creatures, a game I worked on in the 90s. Charlie Brooker reviewed it at the time, and apparently it stuck in his head.

This collaboration between Nils Frahm and Robert de Niro is currently playing on 6 Music. A 15 minute mixture of grainy folk orchestra and spoken word. Absolutely stunning.

Today’s adventure in crisp land: KFC flavoured crisps from Germany. Like regular Walkers chicken crisps with a sachet of black pepper per crisp. Oddly compelling.

That said, a few hours ago my little boy asked me the same question, and went for these. Which seem to only exist in the mostly-Polish corner shop in town.

These beauties are “Mustard Octopus” flavour. You can occasionally find them in oriental supermarkets. Like nice sushi, if it were a bag of crisps.

@andrewhunterm.bsky.social Found another for your “names that work as sentences” collection.

Apparently I’m playing live on Sky Arts at the moment, surround by lots of people with the “Eno” surname.

A thrill to see Laurie Anderson’s epic multi-media show in Manchester last night. An enormous, apocalyptic sound generated by a three musicians on stage, and some ghosts offstage.
