I've been working on a couple of bodies of photographic work, Sleep and Echoes. The former is a study on the timeless beauty of flowers, and the second is an exploration of some of the photographs I took years ago, using a variety of alternative photographic processes - including D.I.Y. pinhole cameras.
More images can be seen on my Photography page.

I have added some more images to my Work in Progress page to show my current work in developing an animation in response to the first pastel sketch which I created as part of the practical element for my PhD. I am currently teaching myself Adobe After Effects as I feel that this provides me with a relatively fast and simple way of showing how I see the elements of the piece working together.
I have been awarded a three-month land grant in Second Life by the Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA) through their Core Sim grant scheme. Commencing in October 2017, this will enable me to progress some of the themes that I have been working on through my PhD research, but take it in a slightly different direction by exploring ideas which are not physically possible in real life. It has been a while since I have had an opportunity to build in Second Life so I am very excited to see what I can do with the time and space I will have available.
I am pleased to announce that I have had an abstract accepted for the first volume of the forthcoming 'Geography, Music, Space' edition of the online journal, Musicology Research, to be available in Spring 2018. I will update this blog with more information when it becomes available.
I have uploaded some images representing the practical work I am currently undertaking as part of my PhD research in response to the techniques used by some of the early Minimalist composers in their works and performances: repetition, form, colour, layering, light and process.
After successfully passing the progression stage of my PhD last month, I have now started work on my second, practical stage. This year, I will be undertaking several experimental phases, leading up to a final, immersive installation/performance, which I will document on this site.
I completed the initial stage of my fieldwork within the first year of my investigation, and continue to investigate other performances of relevance as part of my ongoing contextual review. I'm very excited to see what this year has in store! Welcome to my blog! Over the coming months I aim to update this page with my work in progress, inspiration and research activity.
