"The Purgamentum" (2019), which he co-wrote & co-directed, has screened on SuperChannel and Apple TV. As a stroyteller he is concerned with exploring the "historical imagination", in which the past is viewed as a thing to be continually re-jigged, reconstituting our origin myths in the search for alternative modernities. A case in point is "Ada", which returns the brilliant 19th century female mathematician, daughter of the poet Byron, to her rightful place at the origin of our computer age.
