After graduating from Oxford University with a maths degree in 1983, Graeme began work at Rank Phicom Video Duplication and then SVC Television in Wardour Street, London. This was the start of a successful career in the film industry working in post-production across Europe as a VFX supervisor, using state of the art technology like Mirage, Harry, Henry and Flame. He has also returned to mathematics with an MMath and an MSc from the Open University followed by a PhD in fractal geometry from the University of St Andrews. Currently he works as a freelance designer who specialises in custom made prints, on paper or canvas, of original mathematical artworks, designs and fractals. This is done by writing c++ code on a computer to create unique digital images. Often the mathematics used is resolution independent, so very large digital image files can be created with no loss of quality. This means that high quality prints can be designed at custom sizes to suit specific purposes. Even though most of the work is done on a computer many of the images use photographs, hand-painted pictures or oil pastel drawings as a starting point, or sometimes just as the sources of palettes of natural colours. The process overall involves the same creativity and freedom that an artist uses when confronted with a blank canvas. More information can be found on his website at:
