about me

Andrew is a researcher, interaction/software designer and musician living in Sydney. He has qualifications in music performance (B. Arts) and computing (Master of IT), and a PhD combining the two. As a musician he has performed professionally with several Australian symphony orchestras, musicals and a number of other ensembles.

His research focuses on the design of systems that support experimental, exploratory approaches to live performance, and the experiences of the artists who use them. In his creative practice he explores interaction techniques which use simulated physical systems as mediators between gesture, acoustic sounds and computer generated sound and visuals.
