He has a Masters in Composition for Film from the London College of Music and Media and a degree in Physics from the University of Patras, Greece.
He writes music for a variety of arts and media, is a member of surrealist post-pop band The Chap, plays the violin in free-improvisation group rest and sudden rectum and has been a member of the now defunct Bohman Expanded Family.
His current compositional focus is on applying structures that derive from extra-musical art forms (poetry/metrics, film/montage) upon a 'self-referential' musical material. His works have received performances in the UK, Germany, Belgium, Greece and Mexico.
