NB: this CV is a brief summary, links and references on request. The digital art exhibition Prix Mobile lifted the newly popular mobile art form emerging from Instagram into the Fine Art world via the tech world. Launched in Paris at Le Web expo 2011, open to all and judged by an eminent jury of artists, curators, photographers, videographers, entrepreneurs, academics, internet and media luminaries, winners were awarded cash prizes and finalists featured in a prestigious gallery exhibition.
Internet start-up Netmare co-produced BBC’s Radio 1nteract programme in 1995. This genuinely groundbreaking mixture of live radio alongside internet streaming with complex audience interaction was a first. Netmare was superceded by Small Pictures in 2002. Over the next decade I developed and produced online formats and 'simulcasts’, pioneering cross-media techniques, multi-platform streaming and dynamic, online live events, such as streaming the Notting Hill Carnival rap stage. As the internet expanded, I worked on campaigns and infrastructure for international media corporations, UK and local government, advertising & PR agencies, NGOs, concerts, festivals, art exhibitions, competitions, health education, training, career advice, product promotions and charitable fundraisers. 2012 Communications |
