Design Technologist with more than twenty years of experience creating future concepts, installations, websites and prototypes.

About me

Since 2003 I have been using code to create immersive digital experiences. I’ve designed new digital products and services, founded Greyspace a design-futures consultancy, prototyped 24-hour immersive future experiences, made a synthesiser out of cheese, and taught people to prototype anything. I’ve spoken internationally at events on future-facing topics, design thinking and championed approaching research, design and prototyping through creative practices like rapid prototyping, immersive experience prototyping, improvisation, physical prototyping, creative coding and world-building.

I love getting technical, so UX/Interaction Designer, Creative Technologist, Web Developer, and Creative Coder are all roles I’ve held in the past and enjoy. I have a design background but use code mostly because I’m passionate about how new products and services feel, over time. I learned to code at the same time I learned to design, because they are two parts of the same process.
