Hello! It’s been a while since I’ve been on here. Thought some of you might enjoy this Spotify playlist I just updated featuring 50 tracks taken from Optigram-designed releases from the past 15 years.

Me and a friend have been developing a short sci-fi film and have just launched a crowdfunding campaign to help raise the remaining funds we need to get it into production. You can read about the film and the amazing team we have working on it here on our campaign page. We believe the film will resonate with a lot of people, and if you are able to support in any way, either by pledging or spreading the word, we would be extremely grateful.

A science-fiction short film exploring themes of race, family and belonging. | Check out 'The Inheritors film' on Indiegogo.

Unfortunately the Design Museum‘s exhibition on dance music culture, Electronic, will be unable to reopen due to continuing lockdown restrictions. I hope some of you were able to see it. It was a great honour for me to have been invited to show some of my work for Hyperdub there, amongst so much great work by other artists. Hopefully the story of clubbing will continue very soon.

Just finished posting work from 2007-2012 at https://instagram.com/optigram.graphic.arts. Pretty mad seeing it all together and was fun going through the archives, finding old abandoned ideas and remembering my thought processes. Will be posting more recent work there soon.

Here's a look at some of the work I and my colleagues at MPC Design did for the recent Pokémon film. There's also a few more images including examples of the language system over at the Optigram site.

10 years of Optigram covers for Hyperdub 😽

10 years ago i left Maharishi and started using the name Optigram for my artwork, starting with the cover of ‘Battlestar’ by Mark Pritchard. 2nd pic is from the inside of Mark’s album, released Feb 2009. 3rd pic is the digital camo pattern for Hyperdub’s 5th birthday compilation, and the 4th pic is an early test version of that pattern. 5th pic is the logo for Ikonika. i can’t say a great deal has changed since then 😅 but am happy with the work i’ve done over the years :)
