This is very sad. Love his music - both his unique large-scale works, and his smaller formations (have enjoyed his recent duo with guitarist Richard Compte, "Panazol" greatly, as well as his two great trio groups on the quieter side of the spectrum - ist and VHF).   

This one is outstanding too: http://www.anothertimbre.com/page50.html (and costs just 5 GBP!).

He wrote a doctoral thesis on free improvisation, "A more attractive ‘way of getting things done’. Freedom, collaboration and compositional paradox in British improvised and experimental music 1965-75": http://eprints.hud.ac.uk/id/eprint/34533/1/Simon%20Fell%20FINAL%20THESIS.PDF 

sick -- never saw that before, and I will certainly read it.

Nice write-up about Simon H. Fell by the frequent collaborator Rhodri Davies - as well as a beautiful solo harp performance (available as a free download) dedicated to Mr. Fell here: https://amplify2020.bandcamp.com/album/for-simon-h-fell?fbclid=IwAR3IhWtSV4dIobrYYjdBYPAG_rPWHZOUDgX-ohUyKn2Y5TPAJDggDP2kVaY
