About Billy

I record and design sound for storytellers and interactive media makers. I appreciate patient film making and vérité approaches to sound design. I was the sound director of the Peabody award winning and Emmy nominated interactive documentary HOLLOW. My production venture SLO is the result of an interest in combining natural aural aesthetics and observational film, creating space in media for reflection, activity and critical thought. I’m a classically trained electronic musician and pitched percussionist. I’m also an avid collector of records - ‘50’s cowboy music, old SFX compilations and ‘80’s synth jams being some of my favorites. I’m a fervent Star Trek fan. I love cats, station wagons and my bicycle.
