It is a little different to the version I played at the Autism Hampshire music event, more mellow and spacey which is really how it was meant to be, now I have figured out how to use the sequencer on my...

    Playing one of my songs for Autism Hampshire Serendipity festival of beautiful music

    Thanks! it doesn't have a name, in fact only one of my songs does have a title, it's called Soar, its also the only song i have which has lyrics, well i do have a few others but i'm not sure I like the lyrics now. Maybe I will think of a name for all my songs one day!

    Bird watching or video games?

    I'm not specifically into bird watching, although I have got into that more recently I have an interest in almost all forms of wildlife.

    Hi!

    Quantum mechanics is not something I know a great deal about, although I do find it fascinating, and also exiting.

    Something You Always Carry With You

    I use to always carry a mineral specimen with me everywhere I went, but I can be forgetful and have lost them before so I tend not to do that now.
