About this site

Me, in the excellent Dirty Records, in Göteborg

Hi, my name is Ash.

I’ve been working on digital stuff in and around the cultural sector for almost 20 years. I think that this stuff is interesting, exciting, and important.

I’m going to use this space to share interesting/useful things I see, and my views on things that I think folks working in and around digital considerations in the cultural sector might want to think about.

I usually send out at least a couple of regular newsletters each week; one longer read, and one round-up of interesting and useful things I've seen.

My background

I’m Executive Director at Substrakt, a digital agency working in the cultural sector with clients like the National Theatre, Folger Shakespeare Library, Southbank Centre, Sadler’s Wells, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, and many others.

I organise Digital Works which is a programme of content and events focused on digital stuff in the cultural sector. As part of this, I host the Digital Works Podcast and programme the Digital Works Conference.

I am also the Strategy Director at Impakt.

I spend quite a bit of my life running, cycling, and generally spending time outdoors.

I’m based in Göteborg, Sweden.
