I’m a composer, creative director, installation artist and multi-instrumentalist, whose work sits at the crossroads of science, art, compostion, education and performance.
I’m currently exploring the realm of particle physics; investigating how unseen forces can influence generative, immersive environments and performance.
Through my work I aim to inspire a sense of awe and wonder, to bring about a deeper consideration to our place within the cosmos.
I’m based in London, UK.
Please get in touch if you’d like to make something extraordinary.
