Film Jockey (FJ), similar to the concept of VJing, is done with 16mm Film Projectors. To understand more, please read MAKE magazine's 2005 article by photographer Ross Orr, Film Jockey (IMAGE) or Film Jockey (TEXT). The photo in the article (above) was was taken by Ross Orr at the Jomas show where I did a live FJ performance with the band Calliope at Gallery 555 in Detroit, Michigan, 2005.

I mainly did FJ shows for Ghostly International (Detroit/Ann Arbor, USA); I've performed with the band Midwest Product and DJs James Cotton, Todd Osborn, Sam Valenti and Derek Plaslaiko.
