I founded RepCinema.com to highlight repertory film screenings in
London and the UAE and share clear, accessible and comprehensive screening spreadsheets.
UAE Cinema:
A resource for exploring the history of UAE cinemas and film festivals through archival collections, research articles, exhibits, and projects - including spreadsheets of data gathered on past and present film screening initiatives, plus where to access repertory films today.

Personal Archives and Documentation
Co-Founded with Hind Mezaina and joined by Jon Burr, CollectedHistories aims to foster discussion of personal documentation and archiving though film screenings and object-based workshops, with an ultimate goal of inspiring and supporting individuals to become ‘citizen archivists’, whilst exploring the plurality and complexity of communities - multi-belonging.
