Claire House Children’s Hospice

Posted on by tim.lightfactory@googlemail.com

Towards the end of last year, I made a short film for Claire House, highlighting the work they do with families whose children won’t live to be adults. It was shown as part of the ‘It’s Glam Up North’ exhibition, (curated by the Photographer Rankin). It was an interesting film to make, my approach being to make it an overall positive and empowering experience, celebrating life through the families personal stories. More information about the exhibition can be seen here.

The exhibition ran until the 5th December and their will be a slightly shortened version of the completed film on-line which I will post online soon. In the meantime, here’s a short trailer.

My Clockwork Heart

I filmed Patrick Dineen‘s new show at the Unity Theatre a month ago and we’ve since put together this short trailer for the piece. It was a tricky show to film just because it was performed in the round and it was quite difficult to find a filming location that wasn’t an obstruction for someone. Really interesting show though – lets see where is reappears.

Dunstable Wind Charming Day 2014

Last year, I went down to Dunstable, to film the ‘Wind Charming Day’ following up from my initial film the year before called ‘We Are Now‘. The project was developed by Artist Laurence Payot and it was great to visit Dunstable again a year later and see how the project has developed.

Symbiosis: Social experiments with Living Sculptures

Posted on by tim.lightfactory@googlemail.com

I’ve been working again with Artist Laurence Payot in a project collaboration with the Universities of York and Sheffield, Bedford Creative Arts, and Tate Liverpool.  We travelled to York before Christmas to with some Scientists in the form of an art-science encounter, drawing parallels between the artworks/audiences/participants relations and symbiotic relationships in nature.  This video gives a little feel of the workshop.  I found it fascinating, just from the form the the language the scientists were using to talk about the experiments.  It was like being in a different world.

Punchcard Economy

Posted on by tim.lightfactory@googlemail.com

This month, my friend Sam Meech asked me to film some documentation for the final stages of the Punchcard economy project that he has been developing over the past few months.

It was really amazing seeing Sam’s ideas developing into physical form.  For me, the project not only made me think as a freelancer about the hours that I work, but also about how much I work in the digital world and how nice it is to see something physical being created.  The banner is on display at FACT in Liverpool for the next 3 months and you can find out more about the project here
