Profile

I currently live in England and share my time between local govt finance (adult social care), and Rocoza Designs, where I get to play. I have had great fun building at The Tech Virtual and have met some truly wonderful people – wonderful for both what they have done and what they are going to do.

I am passionate about many things and generally they involve creativity and technology to benefit our world; my current most consuming passions are interactive and educational design.

My Projects at the Tech Open Source

Artist in Residence - The Painter

To enable the audience to experience the role of the painter - through visual aids, animation and audio stream - to step into the shoes of the painter and 'paint' an existing painting by a real painter.

Make-a-Wafer

Test your knowledge of silicon as you try to create your own wafer.

Point of View

To encourage visitors to examine and record their perceptions of safety or vulnerability in relation to these past and present tools of community safety.

This Sounds Fun!

This exhibit explores how sound plays an integral part in film-making, in a fun and interactive way.

KickStart our Economy

Step into the shoes of a KickStart farmer and see how much 'water' you can pump, enough for one stalk of corn? Enough for a family? Enough to feed the whole village?

I See my life, I See my future

Discover how the eye works - from inside a giant eye!

We Can Dew!

We Can Dew enables you to experience the ingenuity and effectiveness of a Large Fog Collector and illustrates how this benefits humanity, with both real and hypotethical examples.

Barefoot Brilliance!

Experience some of the skills and products of Barefoot College graduates and test yourself against their skills.

Hey What's Cooking?

This exhibit demonstrates the benfits that the ONIL Cookstove has brought to Guatamalan families and some of the pitfalls of traditional cooking methods.

Light up the World

This exhibit displays the ingenuity of WLED lighting and provides interactive examples of its' practical application in a number of forms using real life examples of the Foundation's work.

On the Head of a Pin

Using block models, can you assemble these transistors-in-the-making in the correct order of fabrication? Once in the correct order, they will create a connection and ‘power’ the computer.

Less is More

Step through time to see how the application of Moore's Law has made transistors, and the products that contain them, so much smaller and yet faster.

Waterwall

The Waterwall is an art installation in which the visitor creates the art by manipulating the flow of water.

60%

60% of your body is water, just how much is that, and where is it used? Step on the scales to find out.

Charity Connect

An online collaborative tool to enable charities and other humanity organisations to map their operations, collectively maximise resources and reduce costs while increasing operational efficiency.

RAMPCOM (Rock Art Museum Prototype Community)

A virtual hub as a tool to facilitate international research, documentation , preservation and collaboration for UNESCO World Heritage rock art sites and other prehistoric rock art sites around the world.

crystalise our emotions

This exhibit explores the work of Dr Masaru Emoto and shows how his research suggests that our emotions can influence water.

Water is Life

This exhibit gives the visitor an immersive look inside a water filtration device.

House of Inventions

This exhibit invites visitors to look at their most familiar environment, their home, through the eyes of an inventor, and then to look within themselves and see how they are or could be an inventor.

Mom, Dad, I need to go to the toilet

A fun interactive play zone for children of all ages that invites visitors to move through the toilet and find out how it works.

What do you Do?

The 'smallest room in the house' has become a seat of learning, texting and many other activities. This exhibit is a social study of habits on the toilet, exploring interpersonal boundaries of what are acceptable additional activities and what are not.

Toilets in Time

Review various toilet models though the ages and weigh up their design and effectiveness in terms of both human sanitation and the global environment.

I've got Love on my mind

Using a large (approx 6ft high x 6 ft long) heat and motion sensitive model of the brain, visitors can gently hug it with their bodies to light up the empathy centers (heat sensitive) or punch it to light up the pain sensors, gaining a greater understanding of the effects of positive and negative emotions on our brains. The size of the exhibit invites visitors to work together to e.g. 'group hug' the brain to create even brighter light in the empathy centers, illustrating how societal stress or joy can impact on us as individuals through our mental functioning.
