As a follow up to my previous blog post about what happened to my website I wanted to write a bit about what has been happening to and with me.

Happy to announce that I’m organising an Algorave at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery on 15th October in the Tearoom!

On 17th and 18th July I was in Lake District to perform at QUOB.

I started writing this blog post in the Summer of 2024.

From 23rd - 26th July I was somewhere in rural Exeter for Errorcamp, which is a semi-annual gathering of live coders.

July 6th - 12th was a self-directed Week of Patching, initiated by Paloma Kop.

I don’t have too much to say about this year.

I’m happy to share that my 2010 video, I Am Sitting In A Room, has been acquired by the Government Art Collection as part of Art X-UK, a permanent collection of works by 45 visual artists from across the UK.

In 2020 I did quite a number of workshops in using the Improviz visuals live coding environment.

I’m happy to launch (Algo|Afro) Futures, a mentoring programme for early career Black artists in the West Midlands who want to explore the creative potential of live coding.

windows.exe has stopped working is about that moment of uncertainty when software begins exhibiting signs of an impending malfunction.

2020 was definitely a hard year, which feels a pretty repetitive and redundant thing to say at this point.

Nodes is a new commission created for the Peer to Peer: UK/HK online festival which ran from 11th - 14th November, created as a reflection on the interconnectedness of the global live coding community.
