In 2007 he started Noisy Toys as an educational service to combine aspects of science with music and creativity; learning through ‘hands-on’ activities. Noisy Toys has now been swallowed up by Scavenger Labs, but continues to provide interactive installations, educational activities and stage shows for schools and events all over the country.
Steve is a musician, artist and performer who specialises in upcycled instruments. He has tested thousands of noses all over the country, butchered hundreds of computers and spawned many strange new instruments.
