Since the early 1990s, Ian has completed a variety of short super-8 films using different techniques including hand painting,
bleaching, scratching, paper cut-out animation and collage. He has explored a number of themes in depth, and continues to experiment with abstraction, colour, found footage and electronic sound.
The film Holes is made from tiny strips of found hole-punched Standard 8 footage, and was conceived in the early 1990s as a never-ending movie; it will continue to be added to whenever new film is discovered, and has now been in production for over 15 years.
The electronic soundtrack is played live with the Hellisizer 1000.
Ian has been a member of 2 international film juries - Norwegian Short Film Festival 2005 and Stuttgart Filmwinter 2006.
