Gogledd

Gogledd (or Dwrgi'r Ogledd), born 7th February 1992, is a fur living in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom, though his family is from Gwynedd, North Wales. His fursona is a European river otter and is known to frequent the forum site UKFur.org.

He is studying genetics at university out of scientific interest.

[edit] Arts

Gogledd worked as a volunteer session musician at Hereford Music Studios and as a member of his college's Chamber Choir as a second bass, but none of the albums he has participated in have been released yet. Though he specialises in keys, he has played balalaika, streichzither and doumbek (amongst others) on recordings. He will occasionally write his own pieces and has a Fur Affinity account to share them. His works have ranged from classical recitals to jazz fusion, though he is currently looking to expand into a more electronic-based form of music.

While he will draw and make animations, he deems these to be of inferior quality to post on the Internet.

[edit] Other Activities

Gogledd is a keen Scuba diver, achieving a BSAC Sports Diver qualification in 2009, and is a fan of valve (vacuum tube) electronics. He also has an extensive gramophone record collection, ranging from 78rpm classical recordings from the turn of the 20th Century to 45rpm singles from the late Nineties. In the past he has been a volunteer reed organ conservator at Hereford Museum and Art Gallery and currently studies organology as a hobby, collecting rare and unusual musical instruments to back this up.
