Pictures from the Ben Frost project

The Institute of Excellent have a blog post and some pictures of the collaboration I did with Ben Frost and Oliver Heath for Ben's London solo exhibition. We're now midway on a much longer project. Stay tuned!

The summer of Rock

This summer has been good for music. It's always fun to direct the broadcast of such a diverse group of artists, but a couple of legends really stood out. I got to direct the broadcast of Neil Young at the BDO for [V].. Best guitar sound ever. He ripped the stings and used them to make percussive sounds on the pickups at the end of the show. But I'm not forgetting the local boys. I was blown away by the Angels Max Session @ St Kilda Beach.
