I’m a composer, viola player and artistic director from Dublin, Ireland. I also do contract work as a computer music designer.
My practice was originally rooted in the classical/contemporary classical tradition but now overlaps with performance art, video art and other experimental practices. I’m currently working with stolen material, on several pieces where I work in the cracks between other parts of a concert.
I direct Kirkos, an experimental new music ensemble that runs a music space in Dublin. And I play viola (mostly improvising).
