   About Phil Ogison
I was born in Folkestone, Kent, England 1948, and currently live with my wife and fellow musician/artistCatherineTammaro(www.myspace.com/subductioncurrent) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I have been involved in experimental Visual and Audio Arts since the mid 1960s and continue to work in both these areas. I have recently written original music for a Documentary film 'The Last Chapter' by Makiko Ishihara (Grand Prize winner at the JVC/Victor Independent Film Awards in Yokohama, Japan) and Bikram Yoga Whiterock. I play guitars with HAROLD, (Matt Poulakakis fretless electric bass, and Jeff Howard on electro drums, software apps audio/visuals) www.myspace.com/haroldtheband My solo experimental project is called The Devil In The Design (www.myspace.com/thedevilinthedesign Current collaborations include: OSdB (Ogison, Sulikowski, de Braga) secret project: Future collaborations include: Ogison/Hotel Nuclear/AZT fall of 2008. The follow-up to 'The Perfect City', 'The Abandoned City' is finished and will be released within the next two months. I am honored to have had Marco Oppedisano (Guitar) collaborate with me on one track from this album 'Pripyat/Chernobyl. If you'd like to see some sites that inspired this music, I can recommend the following: http://www.englishrussia.com/ and http://seehere.blogspot.com/2005/01/abandoned-2.html It's interesting for example, to open the site dealing with Graylingwell Mental Hospital in Chichester, England, to add a little visual reference to the music, and likewise for Kadykchan, Chernobyl, Promyshlennyi and so on. You get the picture? Happy previewing! And many thanks for visiting! Cheers, Phil.   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) View Phil Ogison's profile on LinkedIn

Hi Phil, you had a really great show last night! I enjoyed it very much. Your music with those visuals had me in some other place...like drifting through Saturn's rings...
I look forward to your next show.
All the best!

Hi, thanks very much for the comment and for accepting my request. I'm just listening to Shore Defenses and I must say it's captured me. It grows so subtly and is full of some breeze that could go on for hours and continue to captivate me the whole time. It's lush.

I'm going to work my way through all of the tracks up there now...
