Supported by a Developing Your Creative Practice grant from Arts Council England, I am learning the craft of bicycle framebuilding from Caren Hartley and Matt McDonough at ISEN Workshop
- 46% BadSpring
-
A limbering-up project starting to put new skills into action.
46% Bad presents a sculptural manifestation of a pictogram from a cycle lane. At first glance it is fairly convincingly bike-like however, on closer examination, it becomes increasingly obvious that things are not quite right…
An accompanying zine takes a journey through the infrastructures and systems that relate so closely to our bodies—the infrastructures and systems we rely on to keep our bodies intact—and notices that there’s something missing.

One of four British participants selected to take part in Watershed’s Playable City project in Tokyo.

- Orrery for Landscape, Sinew and Serendipitythroughout 2016
-
The Orrery is used as a starting point for exploring how our conversations and connectedness change when we have a moving sculptural object constantly communicating progress, rather than us occasionally clicking to refresh a map on a webpage.
Eschewing a screen-based visualisation giving precise location, the Orrery gives no information as to the whereabouts of the person you’re tracking but instead aims to communicate something of the physicality of their experience. Reacting to GPS data broadcast from the person as they pedal, the Orrery uses cams, levers, gears and changing light levels to give cues for envisioning if they are experiencing a grinding uphill slog, an exhilarating descent or the liminality of cycling into the dawn.
The sculptural aspect of the Orrery is being developed as part of a residency at Wolverhampton School of Art, with an exhibition planned for early October. Other events also in the pipeline…

- Bloomer RideMarch – April
-
Part of the Bikes and Bloomers sociological research project by Kat Jungnickel at Goldsmiths College. Bikes and Bloomers explores how the bike, bloomer (and attending ideas of Rational Dress) and the suffrage movement in late C19th Britain helped women carve out new gendered forms of mobile citizenship.
The parent project brings history to life by interweaving archival data with new Victorian cycling garments made from 1890s British patents in collaboration with local craftspeople.
The Bloomer Ride explored transmission of research coming out of the project through the medium of a guided bicycle tour through central London. Over a period of approximately 2 weeks I researched backstories, routes and locations for the tour as well as helping to prepare souvenir items for the participants and assisting with marketing and delivery of the event.

- Possibility ProbesApril
-
Possibility Probe (heavy object and built environment) is a starting point for asking questions and conducting experiments. A direct response to the trend of making mobile technology smaller, lighter and more discreet; these objects are unwieldy, heavy and broadcast to all within hearing distance.
Cumbersome – a burden if not shared – these Possibility Probes resonate with the built environment that they are carried through. Like a drum or a heart, they beat faster the more they are surrounded by the fabric of the city, slowing as space opens up around them.
How you carry them, where you carry them and who you journey with will all affect the possibilities that emerge and the unseen qualities that are revealed to you.

- Circuit Bending 101 workshopsfrom November 2010
-
I don’t see circuit bending as part of my practice per se, however there is some good learning about electronics and some pondering of interfaces done in the process.
I’ve been running occasional circuit bending workshops for beginners since 2010 and it’s becoming apparent that these have been a powerful way to a) introduce people from various backgrounds to soldering b) get them playing with circuits and c) thinking of the possibilities of modifying stuff, so in those respects maybe they’re more closely linked to my practice than I first thought…

-
One of 6 artists on Fierce‘s Platinum professional development programme.

Culminated in a showcase event at which we explored with prototypes for Colony.

- What’s going on?looking back at 2009 and forward into 2010
-
Looking back at 2009 I can see a shift in my practice. Following on from Emergent Game and periods of time in Japan for dis-locate and in Canada for Almost Perfect most of my time and energy has gone into developing a local infrastructure/community that supports the sort of work I want to make.
As a result, there’s not been much time for making much work itself, so the project listing here looks a bit sparse… Stay tuned though, because all this admin work is going towards making future projects even better! Also, I’m racking up a lot of experience in event planning!
I’m currently spread around the internets a bit: try BARG for pervasive games related activity and fizzPOP for the hackerspace stuff. I’m also pretty busy with various schools projects, but I don’t list those here for various reasons. When I can write about the schools stuff, it can be found under the ‘schools’ tag. More about my school work on my EASWM profile page.

- intersticeFrom March
-
Sometimes things need a place to happen. In March I moved to a flat with a lounge big enough for things to happen in.
Interstice is a personal pledge not to a) stagnate b) work in isolation or c) let good ideas flounder because of lack of funding/premises.
Inspired by the Jelly co-workers and the sustainable sociability ethos of Kissa Hanare.

- BARGJanuary 2009 – October 2010
-
This is not an acronym.
BARG is a network for people interested in designing/making/promoting/discussing/commissioning/playing/breaking games. We’re a bit biased towards the sort that might take you out into public places, or get you using pervasive technology or ones that challenge you in a way you never imagined, but we’re pretty open-minded so all are welcome to join in, whatever your interest.
Co-founded with Unknown Quantity, Pindec.

Collaborative project with Paul Conneally and Kevin Ryan.
Walk to work is the umbrella under which a series of collaborative projects are being developed. The central idea is that of taking your everyday journey to work; transposing it to a new location; and then enacting some sort of work function at your new destination.
we transform the new space with our presence and work and this then begins to lead on to other questions…

Their anonymity gives them flexibility. They can be transposed onto wherever you are. Locate your starting point, allow their straight lines and right-angles to guide you through the real world and then find your place to be. There will always be something of interest there – you just need to find it. Examine, explore or just sit and spend time with the place.
- Peer-to-Peer SketchbooksFrom August 2006
-
A creative strategy for investigating an artistic landscape. A series of books of ‘blank pages’ to which artists are invited to contribute a fragment of their current work. Each participant is then asked to pass the book on to an artist of their choice for completion of the next page. In this way, the process of gathering these contributions will result in a subjective cartography that maps out the current terrain of individuals and also the links between a progression of artists.
Whilst the content of the sketchbooks remain unknown to us until such time as they are returned, the journey each book makes is logged on the Peer-to-Peer Sketchbooks documentation pages.
Funded by the Springhill Project support, 2006.
