So here's the short bio:I'll add to this over time, but in essence: I've been writing and performing poetry since 1995. I also organise stuff. See my journalism blog here.
Currently, with my partner Tonja, and son Jakob, I run the monthly Perth Slam event at the Rosemount Hotel. I also am the WA coordinator of the Australian Poetry Slam.
I taught the core unit Experimental Writing and Performance Poetry for Creative Writing Major undergards and other Creative Writing units at Curtin University in Perth Western Australia from 2010-2015. And have delivered several lectures at Curtin for Performance Poetry and Experimental Poetry since.
I do workshops in Slam Poetry, Performance Poetry, Experimental Poetry, Zine Making and others.
I was the "resident poet" on Local ABC 720 Radio Drive program on Friday afternoons with John McGlue from 2013-2015.
I have been published in anthologies:
- Solid Air: Australian and New Zealand Spoken Word - Edited by David Stavanger and Anne-Marie Te Whiu - University of Queensland Press 2019 ISBN: 9780702262593
- The Fremantle Press Anthology of Western Australian Poetry - Edited by John Kinsella and Tracy Ryan - Fremantle Press 2017 - ISBN 9781925162202

I still have an ancient blog (2002-2012) here: http://antipoet.blogspot.com.au/
And I also build websites for a living (http://radicalhack.com).
