This is the Making Of the "World of Wearable Art" signature theme music recording sessions held in Prague last year. WOW is New Zealand's most amazing show event and the fantastic team commissioned me to write the main theme for the show.

Here's a highlight reel of the 2011 show:

The World of WearableArt™ (WOW) Awards Show is New Zealand's largest sell-out performance show. In a two-hour spectacular of breath-taking choreography, theatre and music, art is taken off the wall and onto the human form as WearableArt. The high energy show needs no narration, no explanation and has no language barriers.
