and The Flower Kings. During the 80's he also labored as a

DVD set. As well as make amateur films of many Spock's Beard
& related concerts, which have been used within the official band

"It was a real treat to have been asked to design the cover &
package for The Tsunami Projekt. It gave me an opportunity to
express a different mood, as well contribute to a cause I really
care about."
