Welcome to Sean Clark's Web Site
I am a Director of Web company Cuttlefish Multimedia Ltd (www.cuttlefish.com) and arts/technology organisation Cuttlefish Digital Arts (www.cuttlefish.org) and a member of the Pervasive Media Research Centre at De Montfort University in Leicester (www.pervasive.org.uk) .
My broad interest is in the creative uses of digital technology. In my commercial work I am interested in social networking, mobile multimedia, Web 2.0, collaborative computing and location-aware information systems. In my arts work I am interested in systems theory, autopoiesis, emergence and representations of flow and connectedness.
I have had a varied career which has seen me work in academia, commerce and the arts, and I am comfortably able to move my focus between the three. I have published around 20 research papers, have an Honours Degree in Computer Studies, a Masters in Digital Arts and am currently working towards a practice-based PhD in Systems Theory and Digital Arts. I am a Fellow of the British Computer Society and a member of the Computer Arts Society and UK Systems Society.

Shambala is the perfect small festival. Creative, lots of smaller bands to discover, free of corporate sponsorship and plenty of great food and drink! As I have done for a few years now, I contributed laser projections to Modulate's area in the "Wilderness Woodlands". See my pictures from the weekend here on Flickr.
I went on a bit of a break to Derbyshire this weekend and took a few panoramic photographs of stone circles using the Autostitch App on the iPhone. The results were pretty good.
Leicester's music festival Summer Sundae celebrated its 10th birthday in 2010. A typically varied line-up included both new and established artists such as Mumford and Sons, Stornaway, The Woodentops, The Fall and Tinchy Stryder. Despite being a rather wet weekend, it was a great event as per usual - and at least you could go indoors in to De Montfort Hall to get away from the mud!
The best bit, of course, was Cuttlefish's iPhone App for the event :-) The feedback from users of the App was great and over 1,200 music fans downloaded it in little over a week. It's still in the App store if you want to have a look.
Pictures form the weekend can be found here.
