About

I’m a queer musician and game maker from the UK.

Music

As a composer, I focus on music technology and production, using synthesisers and digital audio effects to build sound worlds that embody experiences of queerness, neurodivergence and mental health. I also enjoy scoring video games in collaboration with developers, and you’ll find most of my soundtracks focus on less intense topics!

Video Games

My video games explore queerness and other social issues, and I use them as a way to express my anger at the mistreatment of marginalised groups. I mostly use tiny games engines such as Bitsy to create these, focussing on building virtual worlds and narratives. By scoring these games, I can build audio-visual worlds that immerse players into my feelings of anger and sadness regarding social issues such as the mistreatment of queer people.

Performance

My performance practice involves using the Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) Ableton Live, combined with MIDI keyboards and controllers, to create live electronic music. By combining this practice with my video games, I have developed live performances in which an audience member plays the game while I perform the accompanying soundtrack live, responding to the player’s actions in real time.

Why?

As is likely clear from the multiple mentions of queerness and marginalised groups already, my work is motivated by social and political issues. As a UK resident, this mainly focuses on the UK government’s scapegoating of minorities and repeated failure to protect the most vulnerable people in our society. My work aims to critique this mistreatment, as well as exploring and highlighting the experiences these poor decisions cause – such as increased hostility towards trans people.
