Nomex is the pseudonym of Paul Kidd, under which he has been performing and releasing audio and video works for many years. Nomex has performed in many diverse locations around the world, from the ICA in London to the squatted galleries of East Berlin, from huge outdoor festivals in France to the trash bars of Milwaukee, from the Red Factory in Switzerland to the Link in Bologna, from the Parisian catacombs to the established art spaces of Holland.
There's gotta be more!
Seconding the request for more information...

I must say/write this project is number one for me recently. His track, added to "Encyclopaedia of Industrial Music" CD compilation, is really incredibly, full of powerful and spirit of fresh destruction. Recommends!
Heard the terrible news yesterday that Paul Kidd aka Nomex passed away on Monday 3rd Feb 2014 following a motorcycle accident in Bannockburn, NZ.
Don't really feel it is my place to post this as I never met him and some people I know are hit very hard by the news, but some here may wish to be aware and pay respects.
RIP.

RIP Paul.

Too right. Between Paul Kidd/Nomex's death and the same day accidental death of lesser known but very dedicated/respected Northern noise bloke Nigel Joseph - review published day of his body being found http://idwalfisher.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/nigel-joseph.html - all sorts of horrible upsets overtook the UK Invisible College underground throughout February. Two guys seemingly linked by eerie destiny.

This just totally made my day - and very likely my upcoming weekend. Thanks @ eraciator.
With the recent string of reissues, I wonder if anybody would tackle Nomex's discography...but I guess some of it is still rather easy to come by...
You are very welcome!
I think I read somewhere that Praxis were going to do another Nomex release - not sure if it was unreleased stuff or a comp and I can't find it now. That would be great.
