Over the past 30 years has worked across a variety of media including performance, music, film, writing, installation, graphics etc. Within these practices he has attempted to continually reforge the passage between theory and practice, and overcome the divisions not only between what in the contemporary world are generally canalized cultural pursuits but also to breach other separations such as those between politics and art, the private and the social.
