I teach English and Media Studies in Poole, Dorset, and am currently working towards an MA in Media, Culture and Communication at the Institute of Education, London.
I initially chose the name “Muso1″ because it relates to my musical interests (more at www.myspace.com/fourhandreel), but I also like the resonance it has with “musing” (and “amusing”) which is, after all, what this weblog provides a place for.
Additionally, the name reminds me of “museology”, a term I’ve just come across for the first time on my MA course in relation to the idea of social networkers as “curators” of ever-changing exhibitions in “museums of me”.

Hi Elda,
Thanks for your comment and the add on Myspace; I’m glad you liked our music. We play a Greek tune called Kalamantinos which I’ve just posted on the site for you to listen to. Maybe it will remind you of home.

I’ve also been enjoying the music on Four Hand Reel’s Myspace site very much. I will add your site to my favourites and follow your duo with intrest!
What I want to be able to do is browse the page, send a message and keep your music playing in the background and I haven’t achieved this yet! My husband’s a sound engineer & works with Simon Mayor & his quartet sometimes. I’m the sad owner of an unplayed mandolin…
