Vorbic regime change

In January I handed the Vorbic reins over to Howard Dodd – as about half the music on there is his this seemed to make sense. I just didn’t have enoug h time to devote to it.

There is a new ambient release up on the site now if you want to check it out: vorbic.com

Drivize – are we there yet?

I said we’d tell you more about Drivize later on in 2009. And now it is no longer 2009.

Unfortunately the project has slipped a little :-)

We should be launching something in the next 4 weeks or so though.

New Startup – Drivize

CTO at Lowrad Laboratories

Since January 2006 I have been working with a few other folks setting up Lowrad Laboratories. We are working in the medical imaging space – specifically getting better and safer images using nuclear medical imaging.

I am the CTO at Lowrad but I’m also doing a lot of the marketing stuff too.

Leaving Cognima

After over 5 years at Cognima I have now left. It has been quite a journey from starting the company up from scratch to the launch of ShoZu, but it is time for me to move on. Although I am no longer involved with Cognima I am still a shareholder. The ShoZu service is proving to be popular and is growing fast: it allows you to effortlessly upload photos and videos from your camera-phone to services like Flickr, Webshots, YouTube, and TextAmerica with a single button press.
