+ Type of work you do: Sketch Projection: I react to the environment around me, by simply using a computer, drawing tablet and projector as my tools. Creating spontaneous art/ illustration.
+ Your team and what people generally do (even if you’re solo, you usually work with certain people frequently - how does that work?): Work with different staff before events to check that screens and projectors are all setup correctly.
+ Best gig: My best event so far has to be the ‘Great Stuff In Tokyo’ party who invited me to VJ as well as using my ‘On The March’ illustration for the event flyer and poster. If there is such a thing as a perfect/seamless event then this was most defiantly it for me. The event was on a Sunday afternoon from 4pm to midnight at a really nice new venue called BLACK room/No name in Tokyo, which had a really super sound and visual set up.

+ Most random thing that ever happened at a gig: Nothing out of the ordinary just yet.
+ Non-VJ stuff you do: Dance, sing, whistle, make promotion videos, CD jackets, fashion prints/designs, draw, write poetry, meditate, eat coffee cake
+ Who you’d love to work with in the near future: In the near future I’d love to collaborate with programmers and visual artist.
