Gender Male
Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Film maker/poet/freelance ham
Location Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Introduction I co-wrote the storyline for Pure Shit and worked on the production from script to mix. This and a 4 page biographical poem gave me the cred to be accepted as a 'mature' student at Preston Institute of Technology, School of Art & Design. There I met Mitchell Faircloth, Phil Pinder, Tracy Harvey, Sarah Curtis and others from Prahran Institute including Nino Martinetti. We made short experimental 16mm films culminating in Terror Lostralis. You will notice another film we made, Buckeye & Pinto, directed by the late Phil Pinder (The Chief in Terror). Both films together with newsreel shorts and interval advertising slides were combined into a Saturday Matinee format. Unfortunately Buckeye & Pinto is not digitally available so you'll just have to guess about that one.
Interests Working on my new project PoetEye - poetry, video & music for youtube. The odd reading. Observing Babylon burning.
Favorite Movies B&W 40s-50s Film Noir, All Kubrick's but not Barry Lyndon, Hitchcock, Loach, Lynch, Scorsese, Kitchen-sink dramas, Pommy gangsters, Most Oz movies and ALL movies with an unhappy ending.
Favorite Music Psy Trance, Goa/Old School, Reggae dub, Reggae, World music, Middle Eastern, Indian, Punk, R&B, Rock & Roll, Jazz, Classical, In fact everything - EXCEPT Trad Jazz & C&W.

What reason do you have to believe the earth is flat?
