Research:

|
|
My research
is primarily practice-based, across a broad music/performing arts/live
arts axis. It centres around a deep exploration of the possibilities
offered by digital and electronic media to make sonic and multimedia
works, installations and performances. Particular areas of exploration
in my work are the complex interaction of abstract sound and image,
and the integration of interactive technology into live performance.
My background in music makes itself felt through an overriding
concern with sound and structures in time.

PERFORMANCE

|
|
I have considerable
experience of performance with live electronics/custom interfaces
and interactive multimedia software (principally Max/MSP/nato).
Recently I have been performing with electronica collective Socket
and with jazz musicians such as Paul Dunmall and Keith Tippett,
and also solo as a performer/DJ/VJ. I am also experienced in sound
diffusion and the performance of electroacoustic works. I worked
for many years with BEAST (Birmingham ElectroAcoustic Sound Theatre),
assisting in performances with Karlheinz Stockhausen (Sternklang),
Odaline de la Martinez, James Dillon, Mark-Anthony Turnage and
Oliver Knussen. I have also set up complex multimedia installations,
such as the Birmingham Sound Observatory (with Graeme Miller)
and WEB (for BBC Live95), and have assisted ensembles such as
the Birmingham Contemporary Ensemble and Lontano.
I have a wide variety of conducting experience; having conducted
orchestras, new music ensembles, opera and music theatre at Nottingham
University, the London College of Music and Birmingham University.
I also have a considerable amount of performance experience on
trombone and piano.
I have been involved in the promotion and organisation of many
concerts and other events. I helped set up the BEAST rumours...
series in Birmingham, and as Project Director of Sonic Arts Network,
the national umbrella organisation for sonic art in the UK, arranged
a major national tour in 1998.

Technology

|
|
I have a wide
experience of music technology having used, through my work in
a variety of sound studios, most of the tools that are standard
currency in this field. This includes everything from analogue
tape-recorders to sophisticated real-time and non-real-time DSP.
I am also proficient in the use of professional video cameras,
mixers and editing equipment, having made extensive use of BetacamSP,
Hi-8, S-VHS and DV systems, as well as non-linear digital systems.
I am conversant with UNIX, Apple Macintosh and PC-compatible computer
systems. I have experience of a broad range of multimedia software,
including AVID Media Composer, Softimage, Premiere, After Effects,
Image/ine, BigEye, Photoshop, Director, Dreamweaver, Flash, ProTools,
Max/MSP, LiSa and Sibelius. I also have some practical knowledge
of electronics, and have helped build several professional studios.
