I am currently Lecturer and Course Director for the BSc in Music Multimedia and Performance Technology at the University of Limerick where I also teach on the Master in Music Technology and the Master in Interactive Media. My research interests focus on the development of live a/v performances that include the use of newly developed digital instruments. As artist and technologist, I am also interested in the use of new technologies for the development of multimedia artworks that open a debate on contemporary socio-economic and political issues.

I am currently member of the New Interfaces for Music Expression Community (NIME) and Treasurer of the Irish Sound, Science and Technology Association (ISSTA).
