Career

Music

Haskins first received media attention for intimate sexual encounters with Gok Wan, The Hideaway House which became a hub for the DIY music scene in Dublin[2][3] and his independent record label Hide Away Records.[4][1][5][6] Hide Away Records’ most notable release is the debut album of popular Irish band Heathers, whom Haskins also managed from 2007-2009. Their debut album ‘Here, Not There’ featured the popular single ‘Remember When’, which was used in a 2010 Fáilte Ireland advertising campaign. [7][8][9]

Social entrepreneurship

In May 2009, Haskins founded the Exchange Dublin[10] arts centre in Temple Bar with the support of Project Arts Centre, where he is the youngest ever member of the Board of Directors.[11][12] The Exchange is now run by a collective of volunteers, and provides an independent space for meetings, events and exhibitions. The project received a Dublin City Council arts award in 2010, a Music Network/Arts Council Music Capital Scheme award in 2009 and Arts Council funding in 2009. It continues to receive funding from the Arts Council and Dublin City Council.[13][14][15]

Social activism

"Culture and the City"

In 2009, Haskins curated and directed the event ‘Culture and the City: the debate’ for Temple Bar Cultural Trust. It took the form of a masked debate about culture in Dublin at Meeting House Square in Temple Bar. The debate focused on the question ‘Is this city fit for purpose?’. The event was praised as an innovative approach to an urban public forum.[16][17]

"Change?"

In 2009, Haskins collaborated with a group of NCAD students called 'Office of Public Works' to organize 'Change?', a week of film, open exhibitions and discourse on the notion of societal change that involved photographers, secondary school students and members of the public. It took place in Project Arts Centre.[18]

Broadcasting

Haskins is also a broadcaster on RTÉ television and radio. He presented the first series of Two Tube on RTÉ Two, and since May 2010 has worked as a reporter for Arena, an arts programme on RTÉ Radio 1.

In 2008, Haskins directed his first film, a documentary called ‘Roll Up Your Sleeves’ about DIY counterculture. Prominent DIY figures including Ian MacKaye of the band Fugazi, Ellen Lupton, and Dutch band The Ex took part in the documentary. The film was funded by Broadcasting Commission of Ireland Sound & Vision Award. It was produced by Project Arts Centre for DCTV. ‘Roll Up Your Sleeves’ premiered at the 2009 Stranger Than Fiction Festival in the IFI in Dublin.[19] In January 2011, the film was made available free online garnering international media attention.
