Animated Graphic Score

Dublin based Jazz pianist Johnny Taylor's interpretation of animated graphic score 'Three for Four' by Shane Mc Kenna. Johnny was recorded performing three separate takes, each time interpreting a different section of the score.


Shane has been trying to explain his graphic scores to me for a while now, so I'm happy to have finally seen one. There are more of these truly amazing pieces here.

Switch Update

Last night I headed down to Nenagh, Co Tipperary for the launch of Switch 2009 in which I have a video piece. Despite the rain's best efforts a great night was had by all and a special thanks needs to be given to the Switch organisers for all their hard work and hospitality. Find more info here

Here are some shots taken on our walk around the town.
