Mike Harris : music, event production, software engineering, coaching, mentoring, organising, communication, and people enthusiasm.
I enjoy writing, playing, recording and performing music solo and with other fellow musicians and am currently
working to improve my skills in the area of music, learning the mandolin and mandola and to read music. My current musical project is with Naomi Rosenberg and you can hear some tracks and follow updates at our Bandcamp page.
I enjoy gardening, traveling, reading, walking, socialising, getting to know people and spoken languages. For
the second-half of 2024, I
took a career break to travel through France, Spain, Portugal, and Australia, visiting friends, family, and cultural
attractions. I enjoy learning about cultural and religious history.
I am the co-founder of
HacktionLab, a UK network of tech-activists for which I have produced the
BarnCamp annual conference event. I am the co-director of XtreamLab, a small
hosting provider providing hosting and low-fi Internet services for small businesses, not-for-profit
organisations, and individuals.
I have extensive experience in
the production of public events and
have devised and produced a number of events over the years, and have also worked at wide variety of events and are well-versed in most aspects of event production. Here is a complete list of all events I've been involved thus far.
My current active projects are:
