Chackowicz plays drums for two long-lived Montreal-based bands: The American Devices (1980)[9] and Nutsak (1996).[10] Chackowicz contributed to Against the Day, the 2009 debut release from the Sam Shalabi project Land of Kush.[11]

In 2001 Chackowicz had roles in the François Miron experimental film Resolving Power,[12] and in the short Sweat Angel by Montreal filmmaker Jon Tucker.[13]

Chackowicz was a regular on CBC Radio One's comedy program WireTap[14] throughout the length of its run from 2004 to 2015. His character was a child in a man's body, who often needed the help of host Jonathan Goldstein with various plans and schemes that never ended well for Jonathan. He had appeared in several internet video shorts produced by the radio show.[15]

Chackowicz has also written restaurant reviews for the Hour and for enRoute magazine.[16][17]
