Ophelia thrives in a live collaborative context and so formed an experimental project called PakAnimal in 2019. A unique group of four players is selected each month for a series of one-off, unrehearsed, song-creating, groove-focused, experimental shows. PakAnimal represents living in the present, being creative and challenged by making music for the sake of music-making.

Supported acts such as Pete Rock, Ice Cube, De La Soul, Pharaohe Monch, Tony Allen, Ultramagnetic MC’s, Robert Glasper, Saul Williams & Maverick Sabre.

Ophelia is active at a local community level offering guidance and direction to young musical artists in association with Music Generation Cork City and The Kabin Studios. Throwing Shapes the movie was written and release during lockdown and screened in The iconic Gate cinema Cork in 2021
