Damn that was fun!!!
Very stoked to be on board for the second wave of @akitufestival , with @nzmagicalzone on lighting and
@juicylemz on visual support
It's been a great privilege to work on this stage designed by @kimberleerosetattoo
Constraints and optimisations were identified nice and early, so we managed to achieve cohesive results without needing to overdo any technical aspects.
Massive ups to @discrete_soundnz !
It's exciting to hear+see the rig steadily developing. We couldn't ask for a better sound crew to share the booth with!! 🫡
I'm excited about this party.
The crew are incredibly warm and welcoming, and there's a spirit of celebrating contributions in all the forms they may take ✊️
Can't wait for the next one!!
Epic time back in the valley last weekend with the Pulse stage crew last weekend <3
Big ups @catalyst_visuals for supporting me in the mix, and @nzmagicalzone for chromatic ambiance <3
Thanks for having me @yatrafestival 🙏

Hello social media-land. Been a while!!
So far, so good for gigs in 2025.
Its probably time I posted some footage 😂
Mapping the native stage @intothevortex_nz was a great time!!!
Shout out to @girlingoggles for mixing in w/ me on the first night here 🔥🔥🔥
I'm extremely excited to be joining @optiphonic , aj_alcatraz, Matt Hatt, Jamie Price, and Lucy Skittles (aka Elfling) on the visuals in Inangahua this weekend!
Also, somehow , its my first time in the west coast area 🤯
Super excited to be part of this new crew, on this amazing new site 🙏
Also damn, the lineup is 🔥🔥🥵🔥🔥
Projection mapping, laser mapping, lighting design and VJing are visual disciplines which find their genesis, their development, and their activation in musical environments, at festivals after dark.
As such, the mahi of bringing these practices together is an undertaking we wholeheartedly and uncompromisingly embrace.
Our visual production team have been storming away at technical preparations, and assembling a dream team..
For this milestone event, we're beyond stoked to be hosting a wonderful and diverse array of technical artisans and expressive operators, each bringing their own unique universe of creativity, contributing to the synaesthetic smorgasbord, and weaving new threads into the tapestry of our immersive visionscape.
We are thrilled to introduce the TF10 visual production team!!!
