My Hometown

I've been going through a very challenging time mentally. I began psychotherapy two years ago and it has brought up (as it is designed to) a vast amount of personal history for me to re-evaluate.
I am learning to live in the moment. Yes, plan, but I all too often find myself missing out on what is in front of me, as I'm too busy worrying about what I have to do tomorrow.
"Think like someone who's never been here before"
Forever loaded with a gigantic shadow of success left behind by my surrogate grandfather, for my entire life I've felt tremendous pressure to be perfect, to know everything and to BE someone. Famous. Admired. Adored. It is only recently that I have discovered this does not need to be the case.
So, this brings me to my 'new name', new website and what I want to get up to from this point forward.
Music has and always will be a huge part of my life. Jacket Records, Jacket Studios, my management work with Hope is all still going, and moving steadily forward I might add. But it is the capture and recording of stories using technology that I am so interested in. Sharing people's stories through Photography, Filmmaking, Music, Sound Recording. You name it. If it's a new gadget that can record stuff. I'm interested. No idea where I got that from...
​
I leave you with my latest work. 'My Hometown'. I went for a day out in St Albans with the mindset of a tourist. 'Think like someone who's never been here before'. Since my tour of Iceland in April. I've realised that I spent a lot of money to travel somewhere people live. Just like I live in St Albans. They know it. Just like I know St Albans. So why do we travel? New experiences? I bet there are plenty of things you haven't experienced just down the road.
