Guitarist who began playing improvised music in his teens on the UK free improvisation arena and developed his sound in the downtown music scenes of New York and Washington D.C. in the early 1980’s, working with Elliott Sharp, Bobby Previte and NPR's Bob Boilen amongst others.  He formed the Heat Poets in partnership with the open field poet Chris Torrance in Wales in 1985.  Vine was guitarist with Ted Milton’s cult group Blurt throughout the 1990’s and worked as composer and sound designer for Welsh dance and theatre companies such as Earthfall, Teatr Genedlaethol Cymru and the Centre for Performance Research. He has been based in Brazil since 2000 working with dance, theatre and film companies including Verve Cia de Dança and Union Filmes. He formed the Ambient Improvisation duo Barsa and Briggy with Brazilian percussionist Wesley Ribeiro in 2010 and is currently a member of the Ethernet Orchestra, a global group of improvisers who perform in real time via internet, with members in Australia, Brazil, Germany, Canada, Iran, Norway, UK and China playing both traditional acoustic and modern electronic instruments.
