It has been far too long between shows and hopefully we can now get back to some kind of regular output.

For this show our last guest Nick Davis (The 120ist on the YouTube) makes a visit to community darkroom / darkroom community that is “Negative Thinking” in Bristol where he gets to interview Tim Pearse about the space, the community he is helping to build, his love of the darkroom as a means of expression and creating unique works of art.

Things we chatted about on the show:

Negative Thinking Community.
