I enjoyed spending time trying to sell pictures to shop owners. I was however, on unfamiliar ground , out of my comfort zone etc. I’m no salesman, and cold calling made me uncomfortable – knowing my own feelings on the matter. But I figured, I was there in person and there would be no hard-sell. I would stop or leave the moment I was asked. I was…

I made it originally with with the idea that I would play it with a slide (no need to fret the neck). I made a slide from a brass shell casing sawn in half – but it doesn’t sound…

These are the I think the first three of the lockdown tunes, of which there are 10 or 12 in all. I mixed these down on a pair of headphones so if any sound engineers are listening, It’s like this, I have neighbours and they are usually home, these days

I love finding stuff that’s destined for landfill and turning into something useful.That’s the idea, anyways. I know it’s not single-handedly saving the planet but it exorcises my frustration of those in power, who are reacting so slowly when it comes to matters of climate change. That’s all om saying on the matter. I’ve already said to much . I know anything that might seem to preach…
Liverpool Football Club approached JMU Learning Methods Unit to create a multimedia CD-Rom, for commercial use. The CD would contain Interviews, games, memorabilia, videos, archive footage, club history etc.
‘V-mule was a non-violent, multiplayer videogame that explored the potential learning aspects of these technologies. While the aims of the game are overtly to support the development of children’s thinking and collaboration skills, the scenarios into which they are immersed are more typical of commercial videogames than of traditional ‘edutainment’. Each prototype builds on the lessons learnt from the preceding ones, providing a far more informed and…
Child’s Play No. 9 was a collaboration between ICDC and Yr 8 pupils from Shorefields School exploring space. Inspired by games to communicate navigation and journeys, participants developed the concept of a virtual 3 dimensional space, populated by visual and audio content created by participants, which could be navigated through via electronic sensors. The resulting installation was exhibited at Liverpool’s Writing on the Wall festival and the…
You’d maybe expect guitars of the apocalypse to be a bit more Thrash and Death-Metal? No, these are the kinds of guitar you can expect to find after the event. No more Gibson, no more Gretsch, or Fender. We’d most probably have to adapt to survive without other neat items like juicers and cereal fortified with vitamins. In many ways this is a project of ignorance. My original idea…

The music was created for the BBC Jam website, now defunct (well, never really got started) for a series of maths games for kids. The music engine required the music as separate tracks, as it would be different depending how you played the game. The result was short looping tunes; rhythms and melodies/sound fx that could be built up in a combination of layers. The music below…
