Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Overview
I'm an immersive technology researcher developing novel approaches to 3D experiences and research from the perspective of a multimedia creative artist. With a diverse foundation in music production, composition, audio engineering, and game development, I spearhead initiatives that harness creative works for positive societal and environmental impact.
Current projects include:
- Algorithm validation and procedure generation for LiDAR scanning techniques to enable more accurate biodiversity and biomass calculations,
- Prototyping first-person 360 camera technologies and co-producing 360VR simulations for domestic and family violence prevention and education, and
- Investigating AI NPC interactions within immersive simulations to develop interpersonal capabilities within complex situations.
Research Interests
-
Virtual, Augmented, and Extended Reality
Developing immersive experiences that solve real-world problems through creative media production and game development. -
Photogrammetry, 3D Modelling, and Digital Twins
Developing 3D models of the real-world to solve unique problems. -
Music Technology and Production
Innovative audio/music projects that stretch the limits of sonic experience and/or blend unique inter-disciplinary perspectives.
Research Impacts
The development of 360VR simulations for domestic and family violence education and prevention has resulted in:
- Completion of CSIRO ON Prime program to identify amplification opportunities,
- A pipeline of industry workshops based on the created materials, and
- Inter-institutional utilisation in Social Work education initiatives.
