I am pleased to introduce our fabulous sound team for the event:

After obtaining recent degrees in both Audio Visual Technology and Music Culture - tutored by none other than Kode9, Paul now divides his time between being Head of Music for Future Shorts; journalism for such publications as Dazed and Confused, Amelia's Magazine and Disorder; freelance music and culture consultancy as well as working on his own music and sound design.

More recently he has developed the #3 Soulsuit, the latest in a series of custom-made suits with integrated wearable technology.
