Electric street lighting has developed wholly in the age of the motor car. Therefore, normal models of urban lighting are based firmly on designing for vehicle traffic. Standards documents and good practice guidance typically focus on lighting vehicl... Read More about Lighting for Cities Inhabited by People, Not Cars: Community Co-Design and Creative Lighting.

True Colours: explorations in art, design and research (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Innes, M. (2017, September). True Colours: explorations in art, design and research. Presented at Color and Imaging Conference 25

Do you see colour the same way that I see colour? As my initial training was as an artist, it is possible that I look at colour very differently from someone with a scientific background. But do all artists or all scientists see the same, how do spe... Read More about True Colours: explorations in art, design and research.

Potentiality: the ethical foundation of design (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buwert, P. (2017, April). Potentiality: the ethical foundation of design. Presented at Design for Next. 12th European Academy of Design Conference, Rome, Italy

This paper presents the argument that design is by nature an activity which extends and transforms potentiality and that therefore, because of this, it is always an ethical activity. This foundational ethicality does not guarantee that design will al... Read More about Potentiality: the ethical foundation of design.

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Innes, M. (2016, October). The edges of lighting design: Research and practice on the fringes. Presented at New Perspectives on the Future of Healthy Light and Lighting in Daily Life

If architectural lighting design is contained within a defined circle, then the edges are, at the very least, quite blurred. All kinds of other lighting practice has straddled the boundaries: theatre, live event, film, light art... All these areas ha...

SKiN: Designing pseudo-physiology into personal technology devices to create enhanced interactions through visceral signifiers and behaviours (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
O'Dowd, A. (2017, July). SKiN: Designing pseudo-physiology into personal technology devices to create enhanced interactions through visceral signifiers and behaviours. Presented at Computing Conference 2017

The majority of technology is now personal. Humans, in turn, are expected to and have personal relationships with their devices. The issue is that humans are biological beings and relate to the world as animals, in a biological way. In contrast, pers...
