Andrew Morrison is Professor of Interdisciplinary Design at the Institute of Design (IDE). As co-odinator of research at IDE, Andrew takes part in and leads a range of design research projects. These cover Communication Design, dynamic interfaces and social media; RFID, mediation and activity; Service Design and innovation in leadership; electronic arts installation; narrative and mobile media; practice-based research/research by design; and online research mediation. (see below for projects).
He has been central to the ongoing redesign and teaching in the last two intakes of the PhD school at AHO. He is currently supervisor for 8 PhD students at AHO and a member of the PhD Board. He was paper co-chair for Nordes 09, Engaging Artifacts, 3rd Nordic Design Research Conference (www.nordes.org). He has published widely in journals, books and online and has a special research interest in online research mediation. AHO colleagues recently contributed to this latter interest through a project called GRIG (Guild of Reality Integrators and Generators) funded by the EU in an international research seminar on Research Mediation.
Forthcoming publications include: Morrison (A.) (Ed.) Inside Multimodal Composition (Hampton Press, 2010) and in Wagner, I. et al. (Eds). Exploring Digital Design (Springer, 2010). Andrew is currently guest editor for a special issue of the online open access journal FORM Akademisk on Research by Design (due Spring 2010).
Andrew joined AHO after leading the Communication Design Research Group at InterMedia, an interdisciplinary research centre at the University of Oslo. Links with InterMedia are continued through joint projects and initiatives that range from designing to co-publication and teaching. In part these are also connected to the Department of Media and Communication, University of Oslo. One of the results of such collaboration is a guest edited number of a special issue of an international journal due in early 2011 that presents an 'Oslo School' of Communication and Interaction Design'.
