Transcultural mapping workshops
I will be participating in the Transcultural mapping workshop in Lofoten in June. I am also participating in the ‘Loop City’ workshop at the Outside In symposium.
Public markup

This research looks at the marking of public space by investigating the physical annotation of the city: stickering, graffiti and billboards. It attempts to find patterns in this marking practice by looking at visibility, techniques, process, location, content and audience. It proposes ways in which this marking can be used as a layer between the physical city, and digital spatial annotation.
Creative Crossings workshop
Creative Crossings was organised by m-cult, banff centre and arts council england to bring together practitioners from Britain, Canada and Finland to discuss participatory and creative applications for the development of mobile/located and cross-platform media. It was a research based event looking at practice in contemporary media arts.
Urban GPS experience
Using a GPS receiver in dense urban areas requires constant attention to avoid losing satellite signals. My photography is suffering because I am constantly trying to get satellites instead of looking.
Travelogue
I have been treating digital photography as a narrative medium taking sequences of photographs to suggest movement, place, stories, journeys and discovery. In the near future I hope to to link images back to places using a GPS receiver, to produce some semi-automated travelogues. There is a lot of research to be done around contextualised imagery, and about mapping in relation to photography.
Architecture theory books
My books on architectural theory, urban planning, history and research.
Mobile interaction design case study
A mobile social entertainment system designed in 2001 for Pollen Mobile in the UK. This case study shows some of the processes used in the design of the service.
