During the Renaissance, cabinet of curiosities came into fashion as a collection of objects that would often defy classification. As a precursor to the modern museum, the cabinet referred to room(s), not actual furniture, of things that piqued the owners interest and would be collected and displayed in an aesthetically pleasing manner. Collectioun of Cunnynge Curioustes is my 21st century interpretation of that idea.

Listening
- Neverwhere
The new radio adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s book stars Natalie Dormer, James McAvoy, Benedict Cumberbatch among the rest of the stellar cast. I’m only a few episodes in but so far I’m really enjoying this.
Reading
- I’m making some headway into The Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year Volume 7, but I cannot tell a lie Internet – some of the work is shite. So far it feels like it is one good story for every three.
