I have founded and led several creative and experimental art-technology studios. At University of the Arts London, I was Reader (Associate Professor) in Systems and Deviance, with embedded teaching on MA Interaction Design. Here, I co-founded and led the creative studio, Supra Systems Studio which explored how creative practice can be used to interrogate and explore complex systems though collaborative practice-led research via artistic projects, interdisciplinary student briefs, residencies, publications, and more. We collaborated and exhibited with institutions including V&A, BBC R&D, London Design Festival, Future Everything, Centre for Investigative Journalism, and Kubrick Archives. I also co-founded and directed the creative studio Strange Telemetry, which explored how technologies are imagined, built, used, and known, through collaborative creative and speculative approaches.. We worked with institutions including Cabinet Office, Department for Transport, and Government Office for Science, leading work exploring the use of speculative design in policy spaces.

Prior to that, I led research for creative technology studio, Tinker London which explored creative and experimental applications of open source hardware. I have held teaching and research positions with Goldsmiths, Royal College of Art, University of Southern California, The New School, FH Potsdam, and NYU.

I hold a PhD and MSc from the Science Policy Research Unit (SPRU), University of Sussex, and an MBiochem in Biochemistry with History and Philosophy of Science from Oxford University. A full CV is available on request.
