Aspects of art and design have infiltrated aspects of my research since its inception. A career in art and design was one of my intended paths when I was younger and I still aspire to something otherly creative.
As my research has developed, I’ve encountered a range of approaches to art, from discussions within architecture which connect with discussions about the digital city, to questions about bioart. Since 2003, I’ve given lectures on posthumanism and emerging technology at the Glasgow School of Art, Royal College of Art and am now working closely withthe Foundation for Art and Creative Technology.
I’m also on the Executive Committee for the International Symposium on Electronic Arts in Belfast during 2009. My latest book discusses this theme: Human Futures: Art in an Age of Uncertainty. Also, check out the ISEA 2009 Panel I am co-chairing. I’m also on its Steering Committe.
