About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I’m a travelling artist, working with sound, trying to make a living! Now based in Bristol.

ABOUT ME

i am a sound artist/musician, and have been trying to make a living doing this over the last few years. this generally means travelling to other countries as artist-in-residence, presenting work in festivals and for universities, running sound recording workshops and playing concerts.

in between my projects i tend to travel further to explore the country i am in further, meeting more people and seeing another side of life.

PHILOSOPHY

'I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.'
Special Agent Dale Cooper, Twin Peaks
