Writing

Doodlebug

A theory of horror based on cognitive neuroscience. While writing a feature horror film i’ve been researching the neuroscience of fear and found some correlations with horror style that I think are intriguing.

Q and A with Tarantino

Back In October, I got the chance to have a quick chat with Quentin Tarantino after a premiere of Death proof in Dublin. This is very roughly, based on memory, what we talked about. The most surprising thing was how kind and friendly he was. I must admit I did not draw the picture to the right, grabbed it off another site.

Wes Anderson Thesis

I wrote this big thesis on Anderson to graduate from college. I tried my best to get to grips with the particular style and charm of his work, while also trying to develop a new theory of comedy that would unite the many disparate ideas I had seen through research. While i didn’t really achieve either aim completely, I think I came close enough.
