How to Kill Mikey Martin (with Supplementary Material from Ben Cowan)

About Stephen Jackson: Artist-writer

Imagine being lucky enough to find yourself landed in a near-fantasy career, and then nearly losing everything?

At one point or another I've been author or editor of a dozen books as well as a journalist whose features appeared in The Independent, Time Out, Sunday Telegraph and leading national magazines. I also worked in television films, one of which won Crystal Prize at the Prague Festival; and been cited by BBC Music and Arts as "a writer of the Upper-First Division".

But it was only in beating my major bout of the Blues in the mid-1990's that I discovered the magical potential of digital imaging to transform our preconceptions of what we imagine the world to be like.

The resulting juxtapositions of my art and poetry have been graciously described as "fascinating and amazing" by a leading US novelist. Elsewhere these visuals found acclaim as "stunning...hauntingly beautiful": the words as "tight and life-enhancing", with a richness and texture comparable to John Donne's.

About this user

I was trained in Psychology and Philosophy at St Andrews, before going on to work as a writer and journalist on music and arts whose involvements included The Independent, Sunday Telegraph, Gramophone, BBC Music, books, PR projects and several TV films - including a major documentary film that won Crystal Prize at the Prague Spring Festival.

But I'd also been trained as a visual artist and photographer at Sunderland Polytechnic. In recent years I've been won over by the magical potential of digital imaging and its capacity to transform the commonplace, to blur the distinctions between illusion and reality.

Above all, since 1995, my experience of beating the Blues has found a therapeutic and cathartic outlet through my work as a poet and multimedia artist. I welcome new contacts from like minds, or a chat. I don't bite! And I can be contacted directly on

stephen_jacks58@hotmail.com.

My latest venture, a book called DEAD PEOPLE ON HOLIDAY, brings my last ten years to a head in its fusion of imagery and poetry. Get a feel for the book on http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dead-People-Holiday-Stephen-Jackson/dp/1450039685/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1297164227&sr=8-1, or read about its origins on http://www.deadpeopleonholiday.com/ Order it too through Waterstones, amazon.com (in the USA), Barnes & Noble, Foyles, WH Smith - via all good bookshops, in fact.

Amongst the artists who intrigue me are Odilon Redon, Bill Brandt: Rousseau, Rothko, Blake, Chagall, Kandinsky, Edward Burra, Bonnard, Munch, Bacon, Frida Kahlo and Tamara de Lempicka; H R Giger, Ernst Haas, Georg Grosz, Francis Bowyer and Henri Cartier Bresson. Amongst poets? Sylvia Plath, perhaps almost above all: Larkin, Auden, Stephen Spender, Amy Lowell, Judith Wright, so many more...but above all, of course, The Boss (and there is only one).

And yes, as the videos here well affirm, I'm an ugly old git.

Oh yes, and exploring: whether the natural world or...you name it?
