Hiatus
I have been meaning to write a post around the word ‘hiatus’ for some time, as it seemed to be the best word to describe where I am with my work at […]
400ppm…
News today that even Antarctica is now experiencing 400ppm CO2 levels. We are truly Generation CO2! We hear a lot about the stress it is putting on our environment, the […]
Staring at…
…the proverbial blank sheet of paper. In my case, it is not trying to work out what to do, got plenty of ideas there, but how to do it, financially. […]
Encounter with the crocodile man
Simon McBurney in The Encounter at the Oxford Playhouse last night: a master class is vibrant, visceral, thoughtful relevant theatre. McBurney himself was, quite literally, the encounter. And for me, one […]
Breathing in the Cretaceous
Today, simply a still from the video I made as part of ‘Score for a Flautist’.

Teaching Oliver to breath
Today I am experimenting with a computerised reading voice to turn some of the highlighted text into sound. Let me introduce Oliver, the name of the voice that I am […]
Finding some structure
It was one of those days: Tadek’s car blew up so he couldn’t make it, so I had to get on on my own. I’ve started to put together some […]
Looping the chalk
This morning Tadek and I have been working on the ‘Score for a Flautist‘, getting our heads around the loop station (on the floor with the green lights) with which […]
Listening in on the Cretaceous
This morning I am listening to the bubbles produced when chalk is dissolved in vinegar (malt vinegar, Sainsburys). Yes, you may well ask! It is the sound of carbon dioxide being […]
Where it all becomes fluid
Today I’m setting up for the show in The Hardwick Gallery. This is the second time in the past few months that I have relocated by studio into a gallery for […]
