Tony Pletts @tony2

Professionally since 1987 I have been managing director of Einstein’s Octopus Ltd. My company specialises in art direction and set building for the film & music industry. I am used to handling prestige projects, large crews and challenging situations.

I have also travelled extensively (over 60 countries) and found myself exploring many different cultures and belief systems. I am drawn to countries at the sharp end of Western opinion. Relishing time in places like Iran, Yemen and both China and Russia in the early 80’s. I have been published as a travel photographer & writer and made and presented two series for BBC Radio 4 - one about tourism in North Korea, the second about staying with Kazakh Eagle Hunters in Western Mongolia with my son.

In 2019 I set up Love And Loss with Sarah Pletts. On one side we theatrically explore sensual experiences, on the other we offer Grief Tending in community.

Part of the 5 Rhythms community for 25 years; Burning Man for 20 years; and the Conscious Sexuality community for 10 years. Not afraid to go on external and internal journeys, I like to go to the edge but never go over it.

I live in Hackney with my partners and son.
