New video: Composite Mashworks!

Tullis Rennie and I have been working on documentation for our duo project, starting with this video. This improvisation is from a studio session at SET Lewisham in March,when we were trying out the performance mode of the duo before our set at INTRASPECT, University of Surrey. The project now has a name too: Composite Mashworks! More on this coming soon…

Ink-Paper-Sound gig videos

I recently rediscovered these videos, made by an audience member (!), of all three live sets at Ink-Paper-Sound last March. Although making and publishing these without letting any of us know is pretty dubious behaviour, when it comes down to it the videos are a really nice document of our evening at Cafe Oto, so I’m posting them here. It was a fantastic event celebrating the launch of Setlist 3 with a packed house – a special night that I will remember for a long time!

Our Sloth Racket set:

The two fantastic trio sets:

Curating an episode of The Noise Indoors

This week The Noise Upstairs are screening the latest edition of their lockdown video series ‘The Noise Indoors’ – curated by me!

The episode premieres at 8pm on Thursday 17th September from the link below….join us! And it will be available to watch again, along with the rest of the series, after the screening.

Duo set with Johnny Hunter up on the live recordings site

A new set is now up on the site! Duo with Johnny Hunter from BRÅK last November. Possibly our first duo set? Hopefully not the last anyway. It’s available as a name your price download, with the income split between Johnny and me as per usual. Check it out:

Johnny has also made an extract available in video form:

Gillian Whiteley Isolation Improv Drawing

The Sheffield artist Gillian Whiteley (aka Bricolage Kitchen) has been doing a lockdown series called ‘Isolation Improv Drawings’. She asks improvisers to send her a recording of them playing a short piece, then listeners to it and produces a charcoal drawing to the music. Gillian approached me a few weeks ago, and the finished collaboration is below. Very happy with this!
