I'm a composer, audio engineer, and sometimes video director. I write music that's mostly about sound, and the people making the sound. More and more synthesis and electronics finding their way in to my practice.  Currently I'm working on a PhD at The University of Southampton supervised by Matthew Shlomowitz.
