About - Intro

Edge Effect is a media arts company (I say "company" but, to be honest, there's just me, Andy Preston) based in Swindon in the wilds of Wiltshire.

I'm engaged in both my own artistic projects and providing technical consultancy services to other artists.

Whilst it's not really possible to cover the full range of my activites here, there are plenty of examples of the kind of work I do on this site. If you're looking for something similar, feel free to get in touch and have a chat.

Way back in the mists of 1986 my artistic projects were under the name "BlackStar Industries" which became "Edge Effect" just a year later.

From 1996 I ran a software development business called "Apollo Developments" which I renamed "Andy Preston Consultancy" in 2002 as I moved more into the field of web / media-consultancy. In 2006 the various strings of my bow all came together under the "Edge Effect" name.
