Richard Torry labours from his DIY lounge chair, constructed in off-white canvas stretched over triangular wooden legs on wheels, complete with padded seating and a head rest. His laptop is connected to two other live screens, allowing him to move files freely when making music or video mixes. Beside him, a helpful articulated arm proffers pens, xylophone sticks and a Bar Italia coffee
Storage goals!
