Jim is a Sheffield-based sound designer and engineer working in theatre, live music, and installation art. For around a decade his primary work has been within the South Yorkshire music scene as a sound engineer and, on rare occasions, performer. In more recent years, however, his work has increasingly featured sound design for theatre and community arts, creating immersive soundscapes for projects that emphasise interconnectedness and make room for trust and optimism. He has toured with The People’s Palace of Possibility with Sheffield’s The Bare Project, and has created soundscapes for Ellie Harrison’s The Grief Series, Paperfinch Theatre’s The Furnace, and productions at Sheffield’s Crucible Theatre.
