His documentary work focuses on the intersection of art and technology - using cinematic techniques to draw out the social, political, and economic ramifications of new advancements in computer science. This work has led to an international network of hackers, technological radicals and crypto-anarchists. His recent investigative film Looking for Mike led to the solving of a 23-year-old missing person case and nomination for a Canadian Screen Award for Best Documentary Program. Dylan’s short films have been featured at over 50 film festivals around the world including Toronto International Film Festival, Tribeca, Palm Springs, and the BFI London Film Festival.
