Some of my work has just been shown that the Illumini event held in Shoreditch, London. Its been a long time since Ive exhibited anything other then video so it was a good opportunity to show some of my digital prints. Found a great place called Print Space in London that does archival photographic printing and the difference is amazing.

Liquid Records hosted a large New Years Eve event at the Hackney Downs Studio called the Elixir of Life. Nick Frolic did some fantastic production on the AV installation for this night http://frolicproductions.com

Mouth Taped Shut was a great success and I especially enjoyed mixing visuals for Zanelow's set.
It was really interesting to see the different approaches taken over the evening to the art of live video performance. Groove Amada did some crazy interactive visuals useing kinetics. Beardyman had some excellent live feed video projections taken from multiple cameras inputs that were cut and effected

Surfers Paradise Festival

Living beneath the veneer of shimmering skyscrapers and polished promenades of Surfers Paradise lays a burgeoning culture nurturing some of Australia's most exciting emerging and professional talent. The Surfers Paradise Festival is not just a celebration of this once covert culture, but a platform from where we lift the veil on our local secret.....
.. ..
Running from the 16th June to 9th July, 
the Surfers Paradise Festival will be an unparalleled feast of music, art, food and lifestyle and the journey will begin with a lantern parade and an opening ceremony dedicated to the community 
it honours. Whether its top music acts, award-winning food and wine events, world-class street entertainment or adventures on the entertainment fringe, the Surfers Paradise precinct will have 'culture' written all over it.....
.. ..
The festival is also staging outdoor digital projections on buildings in the SP precinct that my work will be shown on.....

Much love and respect to Jolie Hertzburg who dedicated so much time into organising this festival
