Experimental sound art project Lost Dreams continues in my secret laboratory!
Thanks to the City Of Lincoln Business Revival Grant for funding for Creative Suite software to produce video art.
ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many artists have found themselves without work, teaching, technical support and gallery work. Exhibitions and sales have disappeared. In an attempt to help alleviate some of this stress, artist Matthew Burrows has instigated the ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE #artistsupportpledge
The concept is a simple one. Artists post images of their work, on Instagram which they are willing to sell for no more than £200 each (not including shipping). Anyone can buy the work.
When I reach £1000 of sales, I pledge to spend £200 on another artist/s work. Let generosity be infectious.

Lost Dreams consists of six experimental sound art tracks produced in a laboratory, by converting my sleeping brain waves into sound waves.
Last live broadcast was Saturday 26th September 2020 with The Dark Outside for Aerial Festival
Two new tracks have been produced in 2022: Elvis Clones and The Blackbird Of Chernobyl.
Lost Dreams now has video art for exhibition / installation at a music / science / art exhibition or festival.
