I communicate my ideas about effective design to varied audiences, ranging from the general public
to university students to design and transport professionals. Formats include presentations, entire university modules, hands-on workshops and exhibitions of my work. This page gathers these together
in one place, including links to slides for my most notable university modules.
Devising modules for university teaching is a major undertaking. My favourites are two undergraduate electives: Intelligent Behaviour compares human, machine and animal intelligence; and Transit
Maps: Past, Present & Future is a multidisciplinary review ranging from 20th century design and the history of transit maps to relevant psychology principles, user research and automation. Also of note is my teaching of research design and statistical analysis.
I enjoy giving lively, challenging public lectures to all audiences. Suggested titles and topics are in the Speaking section of my web pages. The link to this page opens in a new tab/window.
I’ve been asked about talk about my maps and design philiosophy many times. Recorded lectures (and media interviews) are in the Speaking section of my web pages. The link to this page opens in a
new tab/window.
Underground Maps Unravelled was a travelling exhibition that
sought to tell the history of transit maps and also use challenging imagery to highlight the need fo, and nature of, effective design.
A record of these is in the Media page of this section. The link to
this opens in a new tab/window.
