I initially started my artistic career as a performer and composer of experimental music, dealing with themes of recycling (both sound & visual), chaos, absurdity and finding small parts about life and magnifying them for a short time. Incorporating as many elements as possible, with sound, video and a live puppet show (with my friends Chicken & Monkey), my aim was to have an over-stimulated atmosphere, disorientating the audience to focus on many elements all at once. More dissertation about the sound and video aspects of my performances are on seperate pages, but on this page I focus on the visual documentation of my performances. For a list of the performances I have executed click here.

At the moment I am saving the video aspects of the performances to compile in a way which will chop up aspects of every performance into a further congealed piece (or pieces). I find especially now my patience for viewing or participating in performance has changed dramatically. From the beginning of my performance explorations, I was interested in the total visual aspect of a performance. I especially enjoyed injecting more performance-art aspects to shows/festivals/etc. that were mostly music-based (especially to combat/counterpoint the more laptop-musician based performances that have become pretty ubiquitous). Currently, I am most interested in the idea of subverting durational performances, where the audience is not necessarily "trapped" into viewing a performance within a time-structure but instead can experience the performance in the same way they would experience a total-environment installation. I admire many classic and current artists exploring this realm. I am continuing to formulate ways to incorporate this idea of durationalism into any aspect of performance I do, including those which are actually in a constrained time stucture. I am interested most in blurring the established lines of what a "performance" truly is or isn't.
