Following on from our feature of one of our photographers, Nathalie, next up is Eoin Dixon Murphy, Tara’s resident DJ EDM.
Eoin is, in his own words, ‘the unqualified but over eager sound engineer’ for CreativeMornings/Dublin.
He’s responsible for turning on the microphone, making sure the speakers are hooked up and everyone can hear. He’s not chained to the sound desk though; he loves the Coffeeangel coffee and the breakfast just as much as everyone else!
By day, Eoin is an entrepreneur. He’s the founder and creative director of two Dublin-based digital agencies: Castle33 and Craft Digital. He’s got other side projects, too. His '5-bullet Friday’ blog posts are something we would definitely recommend checking out. Each week, Eoin lists 5 things that tickled his fancy that week, from quotes to movies and music. You never know what you might discover.
Eoin loved the content of CreativeMornings, and really enjoyed the events and the type of people I met at them. When the organiser, Aiden, mentioned in passing that we were having issues sourcing sound equipment, Eoin stepped in. It turns out he had his own sound system and offered to bring it in, set it up and muck in for the events.
He’s been twiddling the dials and looking busy at the events ever since!
Eoin is a huge advocate for mental health, and I was delighted to meet Caroline Foran after #CMGenius. He’d just finished her book, Owning It: Your Bullsh*t-Free Guide to Living with Anxiety a few weeks before the event. He was struck by her honesty, realness and intelligence.
Brian the Lion stepped up to the microphone before Roisin Agnew talked about Compassion, and that was Eoin’s favourite musician of the year. As he put it, 'great guy and great voice!’
Eoin loves social media, so I’m sure he wouldn’t mind you connecting with him:
