She also played organ on, and wrote the music for, the song "Silver Chain" on Rowland S. Howard's definitive solo album 'Teenage Snuff Film". She lived in London and Berlin from 1980 to 1994 and now lives in Melbourne, working in film graphics, web design, and animation. She was the graphic designer on the 2000 film "Chopper".
