Bio
With a broad interest in a range of disciplines;
from interactive design to illustration and from
typography and information design to moving image,
experimental music, cognition and programming.
Since my graduation from London College of Communication
in 2003 (BA Graphic Media Design, Information Design
pathway) I have been active in London's design community
through a number of internships, freelance positions
and full time roles in a variety of design fields (print,
branding, web, interactive media).
The following 2 years, through the MA Networked Media course
in PZI, I would like to examine the various ways that new digital
media have altered the practice of visual communication but also
explore their more creative and artistic potential of the internet
and networked media.

I don't want to separate theory from practice. I initially thought of using a common space for keeping notes for my thematic projects and essays. But I decided to split the space for reasons of clearer presentation. That by no means that theory notes cannot lead to possible practical projects and vice versa.

Rough Outline for First Trimester's Essay
>>This first trimester compilation of readings focused on The Users of digital Media. We looked at the various modes of engaging with these new digital tools and environments.
/political conciousnes generated through digital media /How users become Authors /Amateur user/consumer being involved in the creation of new technological products/innovation

>>The Practice of Everyday Life (Michel De Certeau)
The effects of the break between a place appropriated as one's own place and the other (place, owner) : (1) A triumph of place over time, (2) panoptic practice - objects that can be objerved, (3) power of knowledge - transforming uncertainties of history into readable spaces.

Place/Space
>>Habermas:

>>Marc Augé coined the phrase "non-place" to refer to places of transience
that do not hold enough significance to be regarded as "places".
Examples of a non-place would be a motorway, a hotel room, an airport or a supermarket
