What does sound look like?
For this series, I composed 3 second symphonies. I then played them through a speaker lying on its back which was covered in acrylic paint and water on top of a membrane. Influenced by the splash art of my namesake, Jackson Pollock, and by the German photographer, Martin Klimas, who used other people's music, I decided to write my own music to explore the different splash effects from different instruments. With a bit of practice and patience and a lot of cleaning up, I began to discover subtle features from the various instruments, mainly at the bass end of the scale.
Strand was created by a single note from a double bass.
For Hands Up I added some violas to a double bass or two for a string ensemble.
Stretch added some percussion to go with the strings.
The Tree grew from strings, woodwind and just a little percussion.
Singularity resulted from a whole orchestra with the volume at maximum. I'm still cleaning the Jackson Pollock from my ceiling.
You can almost feel the music through the images.

I am an amateur photographer from Jersey in the Channel Islands.
I photograph things that the eyes cannot see without a little help - things that are too quick, too far away or too small.
Using a telescope I take pictures of nebulae and galaxies that can be millions of light years away. Using high speed photography I capture images that last less than 1/20,000 second. Using a microscope I image the magical landscapes that can be created by evaporating chemicals on a slide.
