Randomness, with the very real prospect of finding something fascinating amongst it all. Not edited for a market or to cater for those with goldfish attention spans. Sort of anti-demographic, but with the broad demographic of ‘people who are interested in stuff in general, right across every genre’.

First English artist to become resident at the highly-acclaimed Künstlerhaus in Speyer, Germany. The month long residency culminated in a one-man exhibition of work. Press archives of the exhibition are now viewable at: www.kuenstlerbund-speyer.de/Archiv/1996/flint.html

At the time I worked at DC the assembly and component soldering of every product was done by hand. I did everything from taping the tracks on large acetate sheets for circuit board printing, to hand cutting, stripping, tinning and twisting wires.One summer I assembled an order for a particular product range, soldering all the components, fixing the I/O in the chassis, then connecting the I/O to the boards by soldering the wires I’d prepared. The whole experience was a great insight into the electronics industry.I also produced some illustrations for a series of their adverts and wired up duplication systems on location.
