Cameron is a London-based composer, artist and creative technologist working across live electronic music, intermedia performance, installation and exhibition and game engine simulation. In his practice he composes ecosystems of electronic sound and simulated environments into live performance settings, forging parafictional, uncanny, speculative worlds, in which sound, sculptural and mechanical objects and moving image fold into one another, each a kind of simulation of the other.

Contained within sensual tapestries of kilter, self-exposure, woozy familiarity, absurd spirituality, parafiction and narrative intoxication, projects feature acoustic, electronic, hand-built instruments and visual design softwares. He uses a sensory sound percussion drum kit to activate larger compositional and performative settings; voices, sound/video samples and stage elements become furtive intermedial entities controlled by the immediacy and physical potency of rhythm and pulse. 

His concert works have been commissioned by orchestras and ensembles including the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Brussels Philharmonic, L’Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, London Symphony Orchestra, Mozarteum Orchestra Salzburg, FACT Liverpool, Moscow Contemporary Music Ensemble. Intermedia collaborations include Admiror, or Revolutionary Sentiments, commissioned by the Guggenheim Museum, New York (2024), Fake & Extinct at TBA . Thyssen Bornemisza Museum Madrid (2025). 

Mulitmedia music, exhibitions and installations have commissioned by Solyanka Gallery (Moscow), ICA London, BEK Bergen, and the Styria-Artist-in-Residence Fellowship (Austria) amongst others. He co-directs the screen media studio DOKCULTURE with filmmaker Fergus Carmichael, with commerical clients including Bvlgari, Ferragamo, The Barbican Centre, The Courtauld Gallery , Zenith, and Miu Miu. He holds lecturing positions in composition and sound at City University London and the University of Surrey, and is a senior lecturer at Richmond Upon Thame College, leading music, sound art and Audiovisual Media. He holds a an AHRC funded PhD in intermedia research (2018-2023). He has also held professorial positions at Dulwich College, Ithaca College London and has taught at Trinity Laban and Goldsmiths University. 

Cameron is one half of the band Phorne with artist and dramaturg Klara Kofen.
