  • Tim Senior

    Tim has been commissioned by REACT to produce the working paper: “Exploring the role of the Arts And Humanities In design for the Internet Of Things”.

    He is an independent scholar and artist, currently researching how traditional forms of disciplinary activity might be better opened up to new collaborative influences, a process of creatively challenging disciplinary values, methodologies and products to drive innovative lines of shared inquiry.

    Following his D.Phil. in Neuroscience at the University of Oxford, his research interests have led to diverse artistic, scholarly and teaching activities spanning neuroscience, the arts, digital humanities and the social and political sciences.
