    This was made in 2004 and was one of the first films I made using a recently purchased domestic camcorder. It was inspired by a memory of Hitchcock's film of the same title (1963) and the idea was to examine bird behaviour with the intention of uncovering any potential conspiracy, in a tongue in cheek sort of way. It was first screened at the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield as part of Host 4 and was subsequently released as part of the same project on

    This piece explores other worlds/echoes/memory in the context of an urban landscape and music, though using a relatively unexplored tuning system, redolent of jazz fused by an electro acoustic sound track which, hopefully, melds together the ideas and materials. It's played by German-based Duo Contour, Stephen Altoft, trumpet and Lee Ferguson, vibraphone. Stephen is playing a trumpet specially designed to create 19 equal pitches to the octave although

  3. Made in 2006, this film takes ideas about colour, nature and aesthetics and explores them in the context of six short scenes. The translations of the Latin titles are incorrect but both the Latin and the 'translation' have meaning within the concept. The philosopher Jonathan Ree kindly explored some ideas with me and allowed me to use my recording of his thoughts (answers to my questions) as source material which ties together some thoughts whilst

I'm a composer/sound artist/film maker based in London. My music and films have been internationally performed, screened, recorded and broadcast although I now make my living making corporate film. On this channel I will host a portion of my work which is dedicated to exploring a language for film/audio in which both elements strive to be equal components of the same concept/state/energy. I'm aiming for excellence in each discipline but also the development of new techniques and strategies which will create new language possibilities. Many of these ideas are at an early stage and I'm very keen to make contact with people interested in similar areas. I'm very interested in film makers like John Smith and Emily Richardson among others in the experimental film genre. You can contact me from my web site, donaldbousted.co.uk
