Peekaboo is all about the pleasure of anticipation, everyone loves a surprise. All children on earth enjoy peekaboo, why not children on other planets?
This is a little conceptual sound art piece made as a submission to the Forever Now project. My page there is:
This is a rough mix of some music I’ve made for a section of ‘Infundibular’, a dance show coming up at Dancehouse as part of Melbourne Fringe 2014.
Introducing Breezeway, a synthy pop project I’m saving up for when I finish the PhD.
This is a piece I made for Birrarung Marr’s Federation Bells installation. It makes use of the dynamic range made available by the recent refurbishment of the bells. This is an early demo version using samples of the bells. It has been played several times on the bells however circumstances haven’t permitted a higher quality recording (my schedule hasn’t allowed me to get out to the installation with a recorder when it’s been playing).
When making the piece I was trying to capture and compose out from my favourite bell-related sound: when a carillon collapses into dense cascades of notes.
Go here to listen to PBS’s archive of the Morrison’s performance on Fang It! on Thursday May 10.
We begin playing at about 31 or 32 minutes in.
I don’t know how long PBS are going to keep this available, I guess it depends on the size of their server. In the meantime enjoy!
By the way if you’ve ever wondered what I sound like playing guitar with the flu…that’s what I sound like.
Here’s one of the first songs I ever (co)wrote, definitely one of the first to get recorded (back in 2001). Former band mate John Fredericks just made it available on SoundCloud (I don’t have a copy any more).
It’s a hoot!

This last Friday as part of our final assessment for our arranging subject at VCAM we had some big band charts played by the Victorian Police Band. This is my pseudo-concession to commercial band writing, filtered through a recent nostalgia for Thelonius Monk and Charles Mingus. Conducted by Daryl McKenzie.
FAT LIP
It’s amazing what the acoustics of a particular room can do to mutate the natural sound of instruments, aside from the obvious distortion resulting from my little recording device being too close to a very loud band you’ll notice that the trumpets seem to get swallowed up in the background, the opposite of what one would expect, consistently overpowered even by the saxes. So in short, the acoustic of the room where this was recorded was weird in the extreme.
