Hello. I am a writer, artist and critic. Recently my work has been focused on new mythologies that spring out of technology’s evolution of language. I'm in the final stages of a novel about tech, ‘The Self’ and the unconscious. Springing out of the same work and research is also an immersive art project which utilises the video game engine to create a psycho-geographic world that aims to explore the future of marginalised groups in the face of automated governance.

I am also an award winning creative director and run a strategy-driven, multi-disciplinary creative consultancy.

Naturally, you can find me on instagram.

The trauma of war and the scapegoats of history

July 2, 2018

New words in issue 2 of Archivio magazine. I haven’t published much for a while as I was finishing a novel, but here’s a new piece. Another collab with Brad Feuerhelm who gave forth some searing vernacular photos taken on a tour during the gulf war. My story is entitled ‘Black Hands’ written through the voice of a gulf war vet, who, many years later reckons painfully with his resignation at the limitations of mankind and the eternal enterprise of ritual, sacrifice and scapegoat. Out now with Archivio Magazine
