I was very pleased to be included in the Sound Image 2016 programme, Greenwich University on 12th November 2016. A fantastic programme of talks and concerts. Thanks to Andrew Hill and his colleagues for making the weekend interesting and very enjoyable.

I’m currently a composer in residence at Elektronmusikstudion, Stockholm. I’ve been working on a new composition and have particularly appreciated using the INO monitor system in Studio 3. Amazing sound. Thanks to all the staff here (Henrik, Mats, Joel, Gabrielle, Ylva, Pär and Mats) for making it an excellent, productive and enjoyable week.

I’m very excited to announce that ‘The Nowness of Everything’ has been selected for inclusion in the Sound Gallery at the Bendigo International Festival of Exploratory Music, 2–4 September 2016.  http://www.bifem.com.au/2016/festival/sound-gallery

I’m really excited to be going to EMS in Stockholm for a 7-day composition residency. Really looking forward to getting back to work on my new composition.

I’m pleased to announce that my chapter ‘Temporal recurrence in Andrew Lewis’s Penmon Point‘ has recently been published in the new book Expanding the horizon of electroacoustic music analysis, edited by Simon Emmerson and Leigh Landy and published by Cambridge University Press.

Published on 7^th April, this edited collection presents a state-of-the-art overview of analysis methods for electroacoustic music in this rapidly developing field. My chapter appears in the final section of the book, which demonstrates new analytical methods in action. The chapter focuses on the analysis of Andrew Lewis’s acousmatic work Penmon Point, exploring the various sound identities encountered during the work, how they function when they recur, and contemplating why they are significant.

I recently completed an article for the online journal Musimédiane. (http://www.musimediane.com) Included in Volume 8 and entitled Higher-level Relationships in Dhomont’s Novars, the article explores the recurrence of sound materials and how they operate at global levels of structure. The online presentation has allowed for embedding of audio examples taken from the work into the text. Sincere thanks to Francis Dhomont and Jean-François Denis for permission to include the audio.  Happy reading!

I’m delighted to say that my multichannel composition ‘Pellere’ is on the programme at the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival 2015. The concert is on Saturday 27th June at The Playhouse. For more details go to: http://nycemf.org/2015-concert-schedule/

Spent a productive and enjoyable week at EMS, developing material for a new composition. Sincere thanks to Mats, Gabrielle, Ylva and Henrik for their hospitality and support both before and during my stay!
