Interests

Aside from an obvious interest in art, illustration and design I have a huge passion for music. I help run and promote an irregular event in London, "Digital City" - a night of live music, djs and independent films.
I also dj regularly around London, and on internet radio - "Purple Radio" was set up by myself and a few friends. I’ve been responsible for the stations identity, website design and all promotional literature - as well as broadcasting a monthly show.
