I have much blogging catching-up to do! Above is a picture of my first bit of 'something on a wall' without a live presence. The opportunity to make something to be left in the space came from Pea and Pea Collaborations who curated the Falling/ Fooling installation at the Fringe Arts Bath Festival (May 2010).

A performer alone in the performance space (with a microphone and a few minimal props) begins to expose an intimate and private joke. At the core of the joke is the recalling of an incident - an accidental and (un)fortunately public incident – when she fell over.Private Joke is a solo performance that contemplates the notion of falling. It is a predominantly vocal piece that weaves itself

Conductors of Ivories...is the re-creation of Beethoven's Sonata in C sharp minor, played on a Piano and several Toasters. This surreal 'Quasi una Fantasia' offers the possibility of sound through manipulation of the electrical appliance, the musical instrument and the human body. The musicians approach their instruments with delicacy and expectation, before breaking rhythm, shifting direction

I have spent the early part of Autumn working towards a new piece that premiered in Testing Grounds at Southhill Park on Halloween. The work is collaborative - a duet between myself and Christina Jensen. We have been attempting to find a meeting point between our seperate practices, where we can sit alongside, contribute and affect our lines of thought without rubbing each other out. Currently

I spent two weeks in the Unit 5 project space in Norwich just recently. It was lovely to move out of the bedroom and into a proper studio space to try out some new ideas and revisit old material. The first week was spent with Christina Jensen starting our process towards a sound duet we are performing at the end of the month. The next week I concentrated on remaking Private Joke for a new space,
