LATEST PROJECTS:
Laing Gallery
Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
The Laing is home to an impressive collection of art and sculpture and its exhibition programme is renowned for bringing the biggest names in historic, modern and contemporary art to the North East. The Northern Spirit, is part of a major new £1.06 million development in the gallery. The permanent exhibition celebrates the achievements of artists, manufacturers and makers from the North East of England.

ROLE:
I created three touchscreen programs which pull in information about the works and the artists from a database. This database was also fully updateable. The display also showcases local people’s films and stories.

A fourth exhibit on a 52" touchscreen table allows the visitor to zoom into a map to see photographs, submitted by locals, associated with the various locations, also updateable with new submissions.

    MARK PATERSON
    Animator/Motionographer
    Mark in Motion
  • "We’ve experienced Rachael as both a graduate trainee and a freelancer.

    In both guises we’ve found her to be pleasant to work with and focussed on getting the job done. Whether that meant researching and creating definitive listings of Greater Manchester place names (not as easy as you’d expect), drawing up precise boundaries in illustrator on a interactive map project or fixing and securing the wiring on some of our kiosks Rachael has applied herself. A doer and completer.

    She’s also Manchester’s last Director programmer standing. Recommended.”
