About Me:
 
I am fascinated by using very lo fi, toy video and toy webcams to create 'animations' of my own Abstract Electronica compositions.

I am a found and invented sound/live looping/abstract electronica/experimental artist with a strong minimalistic visual bent.

I have been a musician all my life and only recently have started to experiment with lo fi digital video and photography.

I grow increasingly tired of all the of MTV styled quick editing, visual maximalism that seems to dominate the media and films these days.

Lately I have been taking a series of 30 second videos that are incredibly lo fi
of subjects that are barely moving.

I hope to be incoroporating these into my live looping performances.

I have toured as a headliner in 12 countries in the past 3 years of my life as Loop.pooL
(Found Sound/Live Looping), nO thiN-g (dark ambient/noise/experimental) and UltraViolette (goth)

I live in Santa Cruz California with my wife who is an amazing musical artist and multi-instrumentalist.

Sorry, I meant "flocking" not "last christmas with Dad". For some reason I mixed them up.

Hiya Rick! I finally managed to find your YouTube channel. Some of these videos are just amazingly cool. I particularly love Adios Dr Z, last christmas with Dad, and I really really love the broken music box. It took me ages to work out what I was seeing.
Looking forward to more awesome vid/audio combinations from you!
