Entering the world of actually working for myself

Just signed the paperwork for New Deal scheme to get me on the road to fend for myself.

Commission is going well, looks good so far, once done, I'll post a link as well as divulge the details.


I am showing some of my work this coming weekend at the Banks Mill Open Studios event Friday 1st July from 4pm - 8pm and Saturday 2nd July 11am - 6pm.

here is a link to some new work that I have just put on line, but not on my website.

a few days to write about or maybe not

Things are starting to pick up now, did a bit of soundscape djing the other day as part of an event at the Q-Gallery / Derby Monday 13 June. The event is called Trigger and its a first of a line of intended events that feature sound, music and film, collaborations and clashes. I did several back to back sets of records with my cohort Chris Barker whom lent the decks and used his sampler to create sound chaos. I enjoyed doing it and hope we get to do it again. The bands that played were 'The Telescopes' and 'Development of Shape' and another whom I cant remember. All three groups collaborated with film makers and digital artists to form an evening of cinematic manipulation. On the whole I think it worked, but initially you can never tell with these kind of events. I look forward to the next installment....

As from last week I have been working on a commission where my photography will be used in a collaborative moving image piece set to music and projected within a caravan. This commission has come through Bathysphere Digital Arts / Leicester where I am working alongside a musician Steve, digital artist Sean C as well as fellow photographer Candice Moule. Keep your eye out at the various festivals in the area, you might see a caravan as cinema.

Plus other things waiting to hear back about.
