Striking installations on campus show how Goldsmiths research is making a difference

Students from our MA Design Interaction have worked with academics to develop installations that connect visitors to our campus with some of Goldsmiths’ most ground-breaking and relevant research.

The three striking pieces aim to bring research to life and fire the curiosity of visitors to our campus, linking directly to online content through their phones.

Alicia Fernandez, Thomas Hoare and Andrea Petrucci answered a call to students on the MA Interaction Design to take part in the project, which also contributed towards the placement aspect of their course.

The student designers met with researchers from three projects from Goldsmiths’ Departments of Media & Communications, Music, and Sociology to come up with engaging interventions that creatively illustrate research that is having a real impact in the world.

The project brought together a range of expertise from across Goldsmiths with Interaction Research Studio member Dr Tobie Kerridge from the Department of Design working closely with the student designers.

Next year, there are plans to take the concept into the local community and work with local partners to develop new installations that creatively respond to spaces in the local area.
