My recent work follows a course between performance, video and music. Some works veer towards one or the other of these, but there is, generally, a strong sonic direction to all these recent pieces. I see ‘composition’ as a collaborative and synthesising activity between mediums (in a direction that Jacques Attali suggested in his book ‘Noise’) and one that is realised (provisionally) in a performance of sorts. I’m interested in the work as ‘encounter’ – between texts, sounds, images, and audience.
