Chris Elsden
I’m an interaction design researcher who recently joined the IDEATE group in the School of Design to work on the Ox-Chain project.
With a background in sociology, my work employs a wide range of qualitative methods and peculative design research to open up new and alternative design spaces for future relationships with data and technology.
My thesis work at Open Lab, Newcastle University, concerned fieldwork about the experiences of living a ‘data-driven life’, in particular, how burgeoning digital traces can mediate remembering.
