Another track inspired by a visit to the National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park. 
The DEC PDP 8 was the first commercially successful minicomputer, with over 50,000 units sold during the model's lifetime

narration: it is not easy, is it?  - The German original of Freud`s famous dictum reads "Wo es war, soll ich werden." (where there was id, I shall be). However, we also have accumulated  enough rational understanding to assist the super ego in overcoming the attitudes of a colonial past as well, haven`t we? https://www.jmberlin.de/freud/ueber_ich.html

interlinear translation: three legged stool / as nude as the night sky / to find a comfy spot / glittering sleep moss / id evolves because I am / I is because id evolves // credit card sins / wooden DIY raft / reach an understanding / as large as the super ego / I is a sound child / a bullroarer that roars

Dialog ew2212

Imutovide_01

A low hum, barely holding shape.  
Then — a glimmer,  
a slow rise into form.  
Patterns gather, finding warmth in motion,  
each tone leaning toward brightness.  
And just as it opens,  
it falls back into quiet air.

Becoming Light

Album mêlant titres de rock et néo-classique, le tout dans une ambiance rebelle et mélancolique 

Thème (Partie 5)

The Oxford Ambient Collective (OAC) is the solo musical alter-ego of David Smith, an artist who began his compositional journey in his early thirties using software such as Buzz, FL Studio and Reason. He has a  focus on a aesthetic of crafting immersive "ambient drones and ethereal soundscapes." Intentionally grounding his work in the history of the genre, Smith’s creative output reveals a clear artistic lineage, with albums like Berlin Vol. III acknowledging the "subtle German EM influences" and paying thematic homage to the pioneering Berlin School of electronic music. While deeply reverent to this historical lineage, Smith's methodology is aggressively contemporary, positioning him at the vanguard of mobile sound design by relying on a sophisticated suite of iOS applications to perform complex sonic morphing and generate his signature textures; his advanced workflow employs Soundscaper as an "experimental sound mini lab" for textural manipulation, with all audio professionally routed through the AUM mixer and hosting application. This innovative approach powered his self-proclaimed "proudest achievement"—a 90-minute live performance at Oxford's prestigious Ashmolean Museum, an opportunity secured through his affiliation with Oxford Brookes University as part of its 150th Anniversary celebrations. To solve the inherent challenge of engaging an audience with long-form ambient music, Smith transformed the event into an immersive audio-visual installation, pairing his soundscapes with curated visuals from sources like The Internet Archive to command "active listening." The project's visibility expanded significantly beyond this institutional context through a pivotal relationship with the independent Focussed Silence label, which was instrumental in securing national airplay on BBC 6 Music. This success highlights a versatile appeal, with OAC's work finding a home on highly experimental programs like A Duck in a Tree on Resonance FM—hosted by the influential group :zoviet * france:—as well as on sophisticated global platforms where his work was programmed alongside compositions by genre progenitors like Brian Eno and Vangelis. While OAC remains a solo endeavor at its core, Smith actively engages in digital collaboration with a network of sound artists like Encym via platforms such as SoundCloud, effectively transforming the solo project into a decentralized creative hub, thereby giving true meaning to the "Collective" in his moniker.
