His career includes over 30 international collaborations and performances across Europe.
Johny holds a PhD from the University of the Arts London (2014), an MA in Digital Media from the University of Sussex (2004), and a BA in Visual Performance from Dartington College of Arts (2000). His research focuses on alt-folk's role in articulating place, recording fidelity, and the intersection of autobiography and music composition.
Teaching responsibilities include Popular Music Songwriting, Composition, and Music Recording/Production across undergraduate and postgraduate programs at Falmouth. He co-leads the POST- ensemble, which pioneers tactile engagement with electronic music through analog synthesis and noise-making devices. Current projects include supervising three PhD candidates and contributing music reviews to The Quietus.
Notable artistic collaborations include the maritime sound project Still Every Year They Went (with Dr Philip Reeder), the Samuel Beckett-inspired work with Seamus Harahan, and the Hayle Churches oral history app. His experimental electronic output under J.Lynch explores postmodern folk and modular synthesis through the Difficult Art and Music label.
