Over the extended period of curation with intensive periods in August, September and December 2005 to February 2006, email
comments, contacts, editorial guidelines, peer review feedback, biographs for publication, adjustments, all was added eventually to
the editable wiki, giving one point of reference rather than wading through almost 300 emails. The one gathering site helped and aided comprehension over the long process.

The wiki platform was not a replacement for realtime discussion and debate, and towards the end, editing necessitated online chat and phonecalls to resolve differences. Unfortunately in the end we have not yet met together in real life. Despite this, it was a good
learning experience to curate together, and professionally to share one's voice.

My creative practice involves working in the roles of initiator, participant, author and producer, according to/and within different collaborative and interdisciplinary projects. These roles operate in the field of media/socially-engaged arts, where 'artwork' may be understood as a conversation, devised situation, workshop or event. The activity specializes in mobile and collaborative interfaces or interactions.

This focus has evolved from the layers and processes of printmaking, through a blend of poetic text, inter-relations between media, virtual/augmented environments and initially coordinating community art workshops. Story-making/telling and listening are an increasingly influential set of modes in representing my own - and engaging others' - experience.

Since January 2003, I have undertaken practice-led research as a Doctorate of Arts candidate at Media Lab UIAH in Helsinki, Finland, consolidating under the title of 'Contextual Media Fieldwork: participatory mobile systems, devised events, and socially-engaged art practice'.
