Technical Services for Artists

As I'm both a "technical boffin" & an artist, I'm uniquely positioned to provide all sorts of technical help & advice to other artists.

As well as my usual video, audio & web design services - I can provide solutions to all manner of technical problems in your artistic practice.


video exampleIt's difficult to provide full details of what I can do for you here, as rather than making your ideas fit my "products", I'm here to give you help specific to your own needs. But here are a few examples of what I've done for others:

  • ArtSite Limited are currently using my "gallerymatic" system to display videos and slideshows on a TV or video projector in their gallery, "The Post Modern". This system provides greater reliability and ease-of-use than could be obtained from using DVD players and can play digital video in almost any format.
  • I developed software to create a realistic kaliedoscope for transitions between images in a video installation project for artist, Christine Durrant.
  • Working on the Mechanics Institute Preservation Trust's Rolling Exhibition, I:
    • created a device using a "re-cycled" computer and a burglar alarm sensor that played a sound-effect as visitors entered a certain room;
    • set up some more "re-cycled" computers to display slide shows & videos automatically as soon as they were switched on;
    • mastered DVDs to play in looped mode as soon as the players are switched on;
    • & generally helped out setting up TVs, video players, etc.
  • During his residency in Swindon Art Gallery, I converted Ray Ward's computer animations and soundbites into a DVD, so that he could leave them running on a TV rather than leaving his laptop in the gallery.
