Martin is an architect trained filmmaker, whose work lies between making documentaries, architectural animations and creating visual installations for improvised music events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2001 he co-founded Squint\/Opera<\/a>, an experimental production company which specialises in the exploration of architecture through film. He has co-directed several independent documentary projects, including 174 Rising, a film about the installation of a memorial to the dead of Everest in Nepal, and The Collector about an obsessive gleaner in a small Provencal town in France. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In collaboration with the artist Britt Hatzius (Brittski) he has been developing a technique for making dense improvised visual environments, blending hand drawn \/ scratched 16mm footage with looped video and slides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In October 2007 he completed a masters in Visual Anthropology at Goldsmiths College London, and his graduation film Possessed<\/a> won the Silver Egg at Emir Kusturica’s Kustendorf film festival<\/a> in Serbia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
