During Covid-19 I was invited to participate in a really wonderful project,
Be Mine in Patience: an Embrace in B minor by the Black Glass Ensemble
Prior to the 20th century, and the emergent dominance of equal temperament, the association of emotions with particular musical keys was common practice.
The Black Glass Ensemble recently revisited this historical alignment of sound and emotion to offer a brief ‘embrace’ in B Minor – the key associated with patience.
The initial embrace, featuring the 8 musicians of the Black Glass Ensemble and guest Colin Potter, with whom they had been due to perform prior to the Covid19 lockdown, was well received. Consequently, Black Glass sought to widen the reach of their embrace to other musicians to make a more comprehensive piece of work.
The response was unprecedented. 104 musicians returned 247 individual musical tracks to be mixed into this present arrangement.
The full 38’ 50” minute work, “Be Mine in Patience: an Embrace in B minor” is made freely available in the sole hope that this extended embrace may help in some small way to nurture strength, fortitude and comfort.

Words used: ///conquest.mountain.reeling
“Allocated the words Mountain, Reeling + Conquest, I have used the first two as my starting point making a sound piece that rises + falls, leaving the listener reeling from disorientation.”

seen+not seen. never remembered screened at The LAB Film Festival 2013 – celebrating and developing the working practice of emergent film-makers.
The aim of the project is to look at dross, not only in the context of rubbish, but also in the context of drosscape(s)*. Through this piece we are looking to create a visual representation of the critical discourse on urban decay and resurrection. DROSSFESTO is also our take on the idea of manifesto, and as such it is a visual, poetic, political, discursive and endlessly transforming piece. Through DROSSFESTO we have been investigating an idea of drosscape, its physical elements, its past and its future. We have been not only exploring meaning and visual characteristics of drosscape as a space lingering on the fringes of human-made (urban/industrial) and ‘natural’ world but also working with the idea of drosscape as the representation of certain mental spaces. http://drossfesto.wordpress.com/
