My first degree was Psychology. My Professional background is Management (Organisational Change, Training, Management Development, Psychometrics and latterly Performing Arts). My PhD focusses on community building and knowledge generation through quilting. I have deconstructed this highly skilled process and designed an entry level kit . The next stage is to use RFID or QR codes so that selected patches of a quilt, when scanned, will link to media and tell its significance and story. I then hope to see what new demographics can do with the ‘techno quilt’.
I am interested in interaction design, user innovation and wellbeing.
During my masters year designed a smart suit to correct posture and also holograms (spectral images) to help improve dance technique (this could be applied to other physical activities).
