Clive Neeson

Clive grew up on safari in East Africa as his parents filmed wild animals during the 1950's. In New Zealand and Australia, he joined a group of young mavericks who would become the pioneers of today's extreme sports. Clive studied for 6 years under pioneering physicist and disciple of Ernest Rutherford, Professor Bruce Liley graduating with Masters degree in physics and electronic engineering. He worked for 30 years as an international expert in hi-tech innovation and energy projects from Silicon Valley to the Middle East. From the first digital climate monitoring system to digital robotic vision to nation-wide control systems for power generation, many were "world-firsts", requiring deep mastery of physics and hardware/software, from inside the silicon chip to total systems design. Living a double life between extreme sports madmen and the entrepreneurial hi-tech world, Clive filmed the journey from experimental beginnings, building his own filming technology on the side to get a closeup perspective of adventure travel, the innovative spirit and the unique wilderness of New Zealand, Australia and the unseen world.
