Pleased to announce one of my early performance artworks "G24 XTL" will be included in the next "Film Free and Easy" programme at Primary studios in Nottingham on 14th October. Responding to the call out for work relating to the theme of "Song and Dance", my film will be exhibited as part of the evenings showreel. "G24 XTL" was recorded at Hull Time Based Arts, as part of the "April Fools Day" annual art events I curated; featuring art group OS99. Film Free and Easy is always a great spirited evening, showcasing a wide range of artist film across many film formats. I hope to see you there!

Greetings! I was delighted to have been involved in the fabulous "The Magnificences" last month at the Take Courage Gallery in New Cross. I DJ'd and assisted the performer's with audio soundtracks. A minor role, but very very enjoyable, I had a wonderful night watching some splendid performances.
Pleased to announce I have been invited back for the next event, same venue next Friday the 1st July. Please do come along and say hello if you're free and in the area!

Happy to share with you my first curated collection of NFT's in VR! Facilitated by the awesome https://oncyber.io/
You can view all the works' details, creators, listing history and contracts. Furthermore, you can make me an offer if you see anything you like, but I can't promise I'm ready to part with any of these just yet!
Enjoy
