Personal profile

Research

My research in Phenomenological Interaction Design operates at the intersection of design, art, and technology, focusing on how materials and technologies shape lived, bodily experience.

Utilising practice-based and research-through-design methodologies, my work draws on phenomenology, speculative and critical design, and more-than-human perspectives of entanglement to explore bodily reflective interactions between humans, materials, and technology. Design practice functions as a primary mode of inquiry, where making, prototyping, and material engagement generate situated, embodied knowledge.

In this context, my research investigates the exploration of digital and computational materials from speculative, critical, and exploratory perspectives within Interaction Design, Human–Computer Interaction, and Art & Technology.
