Teaching & Research

Paul continues to work as a freelance designer in print, web design, photography, and multimedia. His research interests include pedagogical issues relating to the relationship between theory and practice in applied media education. Photography is also both a professional and research interest for him and, in this context, he hopes to mount an exhibition of desert photography next year. He is a Medici Fellow.

Interests

Paul is fascinated by anything mechanical and, as a hobby, restores old vehicles. He is also a keen traveller and ‘overlander’, and has just completed his third overland trip to the Sahara, using his trusty Land Rover - this time to the remote Libyan desert. This pastime allows Paul to combine his passion for travel, things mechanical and photography.
