Three Gigs

OneTwoThree

Saturday 16th June – Holy Molys @ Esquires, Bedford

This will be the final performance of the Feather Hammer project with Leah Kardos and will also feature material from the My Lithium & Me project. As well as VJing with Leah I will also be performing an audio-visual DJ set to round off the evening.

Saturday 21st July, The Picturedrome, Northampton

This gig is in aid of the charity Always A Chance and will feature me VJing alongside An Army of Lights, in The Picturedrome, Northampton, a great little venue converted from an old cinema…

Friday 27th July, South Bank Arts Centre, Bedford

Kain are a band with a unique mix of Grunge, Classic and Stoner Rock, Metal and Thrash but with a sound wholly their own. I will be VJing alongside Kain for the first time as part of the Bedfringe Festival. This should be an interesting collaboration!

Feather Hammer Premiere & Preview Videos

featherhammerpremiere

Feather Hammer is an audio visual project with composer and producer Leah Kardos, which has been in development over the last year. Feather Hammer combines tonal and ambient soundscapes which fuse contemporary classical and electronica styles, and is being released through bigo & twigetti

My role within this is creating visuals using experimental textures and surreal imagery that are manipulated through improvised live performances.

The finished work is to be showcased on 25th November 2011 at the Wilmington Arms, Clerkenwell, alongside performances by Sam Grinsell and the Ligeti Quartet. This event is promoted by Chaos Theory.

Below are three demo videos created during the planning stages of the project.
