He edited the book “Autumn Leaves” for Double Entendre (2007), made the sound work “51° 32 ‘ 6.954” N / 0° 00 ‘ 47.0808” W” for the “Sound Proof” group show (2008), co-curated the exhibition “Sound Escapes” at Space Gallery in London (2009) and produced the CD “Some Memories of Bamboo” (2009) for the label Gruenrekorder. He recently (2012) completed a sixth month residency project called “Viso Come Territorio” / “Face As Territory”, a collaboration with 7 photographers based around a village on a Southern Italian hillside. Another project Air Pressure has been a long collaboration with the anthropologist Rupert Cox that led to an exhibition (part of the Asia Triennial Manchester), a CD/ booklet, two films and a series of papers.

"In The Shadow of the Silent Mountains is the title for a series of projects that are emerging from work started during a 2012 residency in the village of San Cipriano Picentino that was organised by the Fondazione Aurelio Petroni for the project Viso come Territorio. A CD is currently in the works, a flag has been created in honour of the mountains and some texts are being written. The main momentum here, though, resides in an ongoing collaboration with the photographer and film-maker Chiara Caterina. and with whom documentary film is in production. The flag was designed with Colin Sackett. Inspired by the silent forms of communication that spring up in the mountains whenever a microphone is plugged in, Field Signals were exhibited at the end of the residency in San Cipriano Picentino and were later published in Uniformagazine.".
