Apart from academic output, some collaborations have led to publicly displayed works.
The Drift Table, was designed by Andy Boucher and Bill Gaver at the RCA. I wrote the software and helped with the design of the interface. A Drift Table was displayed in Tate Britain in summer 2005 in a studio associated with the exhibition A Picture of Britain. The Drift Table is now touring, and has been to the V&A and the Kulturhuset in Stockholm. A Drift Table has recently been purchased for Tate Britain’s permanent collection.
Collaboration with Jon Fawcett on creating architectural visualisations for his exhibition at the RCA.
Thrill Laboratory at the Dana Centre October 2006.
Chirp was short-listed for the Design of the Year award and exhibited in the Design Museum
