  • Dead Copyright

    Perhaps the most immediately visible piece in my exhibition is the Dead Copyright vinyl wall installation. Inspiration for this piece came from the Copyright Atrophy project I undertook in 2013. I began to consider how objects, logos and images can be abstracted into basic geometric shapes that eventually become noise. Are they still recognisable…

  • Archive Remix videos

    The Archive Remix video pieces are a continuation of the remix gifs that I have been making as part of my residency at the University of Birmingham’s Research and Cultural Collections. The content that I have been making for that has focused on what can be lost when restrictive copyright is enforced. In keeping…

  • Unstable Mediums

    Late at Tate: Disrupt happened at Tate Britain on 1st May. This event, curated by Tate Collectives London, focused on alternative ways of viewing items in Tate’s Collection.

  • My Panda Shall Fly – Light Under The Door

    After an intense month of modelling and editing I’m happy to share with y’all the video I made for Light Under The Door by My Panda Shall Fly (featuring Troels Abrahamsen on vocals). The song comes from his debut album, Too, which is available from April 4th 2015 on the Project Mooncircle label. I’m…

  • Global Game Jam – Fade.

    From January 23rd-25th 2015 I took part in the Global Game Jam. Having never made a game before I was a bit nervous about taking part and wondered what skills I could contribute. With the theme “What do we do now?” I worked with teammates Oliver Clews, Rowan Piancastelli, Liam Biddle, Jonny Graney and…

  • Ways of Something episode 2 premier

    Although it has been shown at many galleries and festivals alongside episodes one and three, episode two of Ways of Something is now finally available to view online. The project, curated by Lorna Mills, seems lots of artists remake John Berger’s Ways of Seeing minute by minute. I’m at minute nine, which you can…

  • Generic Conference Man

    On Tuesday 20th January I was in Hull for Digital Utopias. I was originally going as a regular attendee but was invited at the last minute by Alex McLean to take part in A Yorkshire Hack, which was an informal relaxed space for hacking. I was in a hackathon with him a couple of…

  • A decade of phone photos

    Ever since I was given my first smartphone in 2004, a Nokia 6600, I’ve always made a point to take lots of photos. Some are mundane, accidental and otherwise uninteresting. Others document key moments in my life. Many of the photos go unpublished until the end of the year when I make a grid…

  • OSP Print Party

    For OSP’s Print Party on October 18th I made a bunch of new software and modified some old software that did sonification of text, bitmap, and vector images. I saw it as a way to differently engage with the usually static images featured throughout the festival. Here’s some of the visual output from a…
