In the course of his live music projects Guy has released several CDs and performed with the likes of Beth Orton, Ed Harcourt, Powderfinger, The Cruel Sea, Mad Professor, Eskimo Joe, Ben Lee and Sarah Blasko. His performances realize a personal and intimate experience for any audience.

In the field of sound art and performance Guys collaborations with theatre, dance and interactive new media include LAST DRINKS, URBAN DINGOES and CRECHE & BURN (La Boite Theatre Company) SALOME, HEAVY METAL HAMLET (Frank Theatre), and the CHERISH EXHIBITION (Out of the Box Festival).

As sound director of the TRANSMUTE COLLECTIVE his work has focused on interactive compositions for spatialised audio. Their most recent work INTIMATE TRANSACTIONS has been exhibited extensively in Australia, UK and Europe and in 2005 featured in the Arts Electronica 2005.
