ARPS - A physical installation in which people can move physical objects across a glass tabletop and watch their virtual counterparts do incredible things on a screen. In counterpoint to the majority of contemporary interaction design ARPS is designed to encourage subtle, contemplative interactions.
The project began in 2020 as part of the Collusion/NUA - 'Art/Tech/Play' R&D, and was further funded in 2021 with the award of an Arts Council England Project Grant.

A series of four screen-based interactives developed between 2015 and 2017 in which people press buttons to interact with 3D scenes, manipulating the virtual abstracted geometry of the sites at which the interactives were first installed.
All four Abstract Playgrounds can be exhibited in forms from large scale projections, custom table controllers and large screens, to more intimate self contained arcade cabinets.
iPad and iPhone versions are available from the Apple App Store.

Automated Spatial Transformations is a series of work in which parts of virtual models of physical spaces the work is shown in are procedurally repositioned, rotated and scaled- mirroring the 3 most used transformations in 3D software and suggesting alternative modes of spatial configuration. The disjointed, exploded layouts that the software proposes is in some iterations of the work immediately printed and displayed in situ.
