Phil Mouldycliff is an artist and academic. Since 1983 he has been involved in creating large scale, multi-disciplinary projects for live performance, recording, exhibition, installation and radio. After completing his PhD. at Liverpool John Moores University in 2001, he has concentrated on producing works under the generic title Debris Fields, in which simultaneous but independent events are presented in the manner of an ‘archaeological site’. He is currently writing a book about the work of musician, Keith Rowe and collaborating with experimental sound artists including, Colin Potter, Max Eastley, Russell Mills, Loren Chasse, and David Cunningham. Retiring from Education in 2004 he has also been developing a new career as a freelance curator and produced his first project in this field for Bolton Museum in 2006.
