Endangered Species 1998 (Castles in Space Subscription Library)

 

 

In what appears to have become an annual event, the second Castles in Space Subscription Library album based upon a set of Royal Mail stamps has arrived.

This time, the inspiration is taken from The Endangered Species Presentation Pack, which was pack number 284, issued in January 1998.

I contacted the artists in Autumn 2021 and gave them only the image of the stamp for which they were to compose a piece for. I’m in awe of what they have produced for this album and acknowledge their intellect and great ability in interpreting nothing more than an image, beautiful though the images are, into these wonderful, interpretive pieces.

Please download the album which includes the PDF file of the accompanying booklet. We were down to the wire this time, so the physical booklet will be issued to subscribers early in the new year.

CiS Whitby Nov 2021 Levitation

 Despite running a Record Label and having a day job, the mighty Colin Morrison (the man behind Castles in Space Record Label) has now organised a live event in Whitby on the 5th and 6th of November 2021 at Flowergate Hall Whitby. I am really always baffled and impressed by how Colin manages to fit all this in.  Playing live on the two nights are a number of CiS artist: The New Obsolescents, Dohnavur, Simon James, Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan, Polypores, Fieldlines Cartographer, Concretism and Richard Norris. A few years back I visited the Deleware Road event and had a lovely time, bimbling around meeting so many wonderful people. I was rather hoping to pop up for the two days and do the same, but unfortunatly being this far South, getting there and booking a room is looking very problematic. Its really is going to be a cracking event. Tickets and info
