Based in UCLan’s Media Innovation Studio, John’s interests span innovation, innovation structures, prototyping, user-centred design, journalism, the Internet of Things (IoT), and emergent technologies. In recent years, John’s research has focussed on IoT and journalism, and how news organisations could utilise physical-digital platforms and experiences. This work includes the Google-funded NewsThings and SenseMaker projects, creating an IoT content management system and exploring how conductive ink and web-connected print could be used in editorial contexts.
