Byte High no Limit - In Conversation with James Domestic, Punk Poet
play

05/26/24 • 78 min

James Domestic grew up in Essex, is a compulsive songwriter, a musician, occasional DJ, painter, poet, and punk.

He holds a doctorate from the University of Essex, has toured the world and elsewhere with The Domestics, and made records with more bands than is healthy or sensible.

He was kind enough to speak to me in his Local, The Brewers Tap, Sudbury.

We cover a range of subjects and when it came to edit, I unashamedly did not leave an awful lot out as I found the whole interview engaging.
Look out for the exclusive teletext Poem!
You Can follow James on his facebook, or go to jamesdomestic.com for updates and books.

I had the privilege to interview the very person that, unbeknown to him, started my journey in teletext art and with it, the friendships I built with many other like minded folk.
