I'm an artist, composter, rabbit custodian and ponderer, working in a co-op in Stirchley, a suburb of Birmingham in the North West of Eurasia.

I took a break from the internet in 2022 and am figuring out how and why to return. The eternal work in progress.

If you find me on some other platform I'm probably not monitoring it for messages.

Art

My art portfolio site has my artworks with documentation. Apologies for any broken links – it needs maintenance, plus I stopped paying Vimeo for video hosting.

I use my art practice to explore ideas that interest me that I can't explore in other ways. Sometimes I'm very active, someone it's not needed so much,.

Newsletter

I send a "what Pete's up to" email out every so often (sometimes weekly, sometimes annually). It's probably the best way to follow my work, such as it is. Subscribe here.

Presences

I have content on / give data to the following online services, though my use fluctuates.

Mastodon (microblogging like it's 2008 all over again.)

Instapaper (links to things of note that I might write about.)

Pinboard (bookmarking things of note)

Flickr (photos from the previous decade)

I have a secret Facebook account for those parts of life that require it. Please ignore it if you stumble upon it.
