SHEKHAR RAJ DHAIN
Shekhar Raj Dhain is a multimedia artist with many strings to his bow ; a writer, musician, producer, collaborator, shaper & consultant/think tank . He?s also the Creative Director & CEO of JUICY AUDIO PRODUCTIONS, which is an audio production company in the midlands, U.K , close to Market Harborough.
As a musician in his own right, he?s provided work to a number of television
... [More]& film projects. He's also collaborated with and produced other artists in the studio, which he describes as "... Like being a kind of headmaster, only with a more nurturing side".
He loves music technology old and new, and has a fantastic collection of hardware to fuel his muse ("...I?m an eBay fiend, and analog synthesizers just rock like nothing else!"). He also multitasks more or less constantly, which as he says is "...the natural remit of the modern self-employed creative". This means keeping an eye on the business side of things, as well ("It?s always a good idea to put away something for a rainy day ? " )
As is the ethos of a creative renaissance man, he?s also worked on art installations, and independent multimedia projects. The IOCT at DeMontfort university, Leicester, was host to a collaboration between Bob Richardson and Shekhar, which was entitled ?TONEFLOAT?. Other current projects include:-
? A non-linear, trans-media narrative concept, encompassing video, flash animation, audio manipulation, and computer graphics/imaging. This is a work in progress, and will be further developed and manipulated during 2010/2011. This is a collaborative venture with Multi-media artist and writer/director Adam Krajczynski.
? Stars Of Oryeon volume 1, which is collection of inertia-free electronica, with an entirely commercial feel. Feel free to move, drive, or drift to it. This is the first volume of a number of releases. Volumes 2 and 3 to be released within the next 12 months.
? Consultation, Development & "Think tanking" for as-yet-unnamed ( or "secret") projects, including a new global multi-media web project, and a number of art installation concepts in London, New York, Amsterdam and Berlin. These and other projects will be announced as a "fait accompli".
