Ian's areas of research include practice and theory into visual communication and social practice, information visualisation and materialisation, augmented artefacts and locations, hybrid creative practices such as design for museum interaction, interactive installations and augmented reality for mobile devices. He is also interested in how we can incorporate visual communication design practices into trans-disciplinary research teams. His PhD examined how the computer-based graphical user interface can be seen as a creative / cultural artefact.
