I teach on the Creative Media BA Programme where I run the Dissertation module and Experimental Practice. I also work with PhD students and have 15 completions. I have taught on The Planetary Collegium International PhD Programme and also on the Cognovo Doctoral Programme funded by the EU Marie Skłodowska Curie initiative. I am interesting in collaboration, sound, immersion, installation and inter and transdisciplinary practices.
