It is also included in numerous private collections. In 2014 he took part in Field Notes, a collaborative project with the British Composer Howard Skempton and Birmingham Contemporary Music Group. In 2009, he completed Scorched, a ten metre long Graphic Score for the newly refurbished Colston Hall music venue in Bristol.
