I grew up in Dunedin/Ōtepoti, New Zealand and since 2017 have called Melbourne/Naarm home. I’ve been making music, videos and taking photos since 2014. I currently lead the in-house Creative Services studio at Australian Unity. I make my own (very) short films and I share them here. I also made a (regular) short film called Don’t Do Anything Stupid With This. I like to make stuff, and talk about making stuff with people that like making things or talking about things they like that others have made. Sometimes I just watch TV though. I acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which I live and work, the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation. Their sovereignty was never ceded, and this always was, and always will be, Aboriginal Land. https://www.johnbollen.co/video daily 0.75 2026-02-25 https://www.johnbollen.co/music daily 0.75 2026-02-25 https://www.johnbollen.co/jab-wedding daily 0.75 2024-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f13b02122af2a37ad830850/a2bf3df4-7803-405a-a629-de69da3d0c41/Artboard+1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f13b02122af2a37ad830850/43853612-cbda-4667-badb-d445be70ea7a/6LvmNQ%40300x.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f13b02122af2a37ad830850/31df04e2-48b0-4de3-b56d-a875936c5134/Artboard+1+copy.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f13b02122af2a37ad830850/a1a13c1c-f61f-4cc9-bb55-eff6865a233b/Artboard+1+copy+2.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f13b02122af2a37ad830850/3ae5a73a-74db-40a4-99c9-e9b08bc69114/GpugdG%40300x.png https://www.johnbollen.co/ddaswt daily 0.75 2024-10-13
