David's work has been performed, exhibited and broadcast widely and has won numerous prizes from institutions including Bourges International Electroacoustic Music Competition, Cornelius Cardew Prize, E.A.R (Hungarian Radio) and the George Butterworth prize. His sound work often focuses on the use of recorded media and multi-channel pieces which explore the use of space in musical composition. In addition to his work with liminal, his current projects include a number of writing and production collaborations with other artists.
