Filmed
driving through the Fremantle docklands in 2004, this
was our first attempt at 'painting with light', using
freeframe-effects to make very everyday footage look

Marimba Queens
Inspired by a much-loved 1940's Soundie "Reg Kehoe and
his Marimba Queens" and other perky vintage dance and
musical clips, this is one to really 'get your leg up'
and party on. The track s a remix of Yves Larock's hit
Zookey.

Singh was classically trained from an early age in
traditional Indian instruments such as Sitar and
Tabla. In addition to his more traditional music, he
also doed electronica-DJ crossowver and explains his
work as 'a mixed-up artist playing mixed-up music'.
A VJ remix of Jane Fonda's original workout video with

did at Plug n Play using Commodore 64's etc.

This
was our first video ringtone, inspired by the fact
that fifty years ago, people were just as excited about
