I earn my keep in new media, and also enjoy creating concept art and electronic music.

What is new media?
Wikipedia contains a good description of new media at:
http://wikipedia.org/wiki/new_media


Here is an excerpt from the article that sums it up nicely:

"New media rely on digital technologies, allowing for previously separate media to converge ... 'The idea of ‘new media’ captures both the development of unique forms of digital media, and the remaking of more traditional media forms to adopt and adapt to the new media technologies.'[1]"

What is my background?
To date, I have worked on projects that focus on end-to-end service design and improvement; and which involve web, print, interactive multimedia, photography, motion graphics and animation, video and audio. I have also provided 'hands-on' ICT and audiovisual hardware and software support.

In addition to studying new media at university, my long-term hobbies have included – studying the keyboard/synthesiser (including music theory and writing and recording music); illustration; airbrushing; and in more recent times, photography.
