About Me

I am Arts Editor for LeftLion magazine and webzine, covering Nottingham's vibrant culture. LeftLion reviews the latest events, gallery shows, performances and projects happening across the city. I arrange interviews with creative practitioners in Nottingham and visiting artists/musicians most recently Janek Schafer. Artist Profile's appear in each magazine, featuring local artists, their work and thoughts. I'm an avid fan of experimental music, performance and sound art and am keen to give these areas exposure. LeftLionThere are two A5 books leaning against some other books on my shelf that are full of poems I've written since October 2004. They are my black hole. Perhaps a glance at the blog entry's on this page will give some insight and delight.I am an art hobbyist and dabble in the art and science of radio's in site specific projects.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
