On Friday 20th September the Dark, Eerie and Manic remix video by myself and Alex Juno will be showing at Bloc Projects in Sheffield as part of Lumiére from 18:30 (Facebook event link).

Lumière‘s focus is on the concept of light. Light and time; light and vision; light and being; light and perception. Light is something so simple, yet indefinite and vital. It allows us to see; it can expose and reveal but also hide and conceal; it can create different moods; it can be used, manipulated, obscured or enhanced by us but it is always there.

This travelling film screening then makes its way to Power Lunches in London on October 8th (Facebook event link), with more screenings to be announced in the future. Keep an eye on the Screenings page for up-to-date information. I think they’re still looking for other venues, so if your city/venue *cough*Birmingham*cough* wants to host one get in touch lumiere.screening@gmail.com

A visual remix of Dark, Eerie and Manic, a collaboration with Alex Juno of Elmo Sexwhistle.

This time I utilised an unmodified Panasonic WJ AVE5 together with some computer-based glitches.

Some new text artwork will be featured in the Paper Stages publication from Forest Fringe. It is less of something to be read, but instead performed:

[Forest Fringe] have created a performance space built not of bricks and mortar but paper and ink; a festival contained in the pages of a book, each page of which is a different instruction-based performance for you to perform. Some you’ll need to do on your own, some as part of a group; some may take place in your own home, others out on the streets of the city.

The publication will be launched on Thursday 12th September at Arnolfini Gallery in Bristol, UK, as part of the September 4 Days Festival. You can, um, take part in the publication by picking up a copy from the gallery. You may want to take along an old camera ;-)

SuperByte is, at time of writing, only two days away! In anticipation of this awesomeness I made a little preview video, with music by HarleyLikesMusic.

(I should’ve probably put a flashing images warning in there)

Since I last wrote about it the line-up has changed/grown to include: 8 Bit Weapon, Anamanaguchi, Broken Bit, Comptroller, Eat Rabbit, gwEm, KeFF, Meneo, Mizkai, Nordloef, Organ Freeman, Sabrepulse, Shirobon, Skip Cloud, TDK, Ultrasyd and Whitely.

In addition to myself, there’ll be visuals from Invaderbacca, Jayson H, LastKnight ,Rosa Menkman and Spectrum

I’ll also have a couple of prints from Some of My Favourite Songs on display.

Still haven’t got your tickets? What are you waiting for?! Get lucky! Get them now!

In Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada from 12-14th September? Some of my recent work will be exhibited alongside some great artists at _ģ̶Ł̶1̶ɫ̶C̶ʮ̶_Δ┌┼-, an exhibition curated by jonCates, at Neutral Ground Contemporary Art Forum.
