pervasive media studio

Constance Fleuriot | Studio Resident

Dr Constance Fleuriot was a founding member of staff at the Pervasive Media Studio, and is currently working on public engagement projects for the studio. As well as attempting to draw people of all ages and backgrounds to the studio, she runs mscape workshops, mainly with schools, but has experience in teaching mscape to people of all ages.

As a Research Associate at Bristol University, Constance was one of the principal investigators on the Mobile Bristol Project investigating the social impact of emerging pervasive and mobile technologies. Since then she has been working as a freelance consultant in user research and locative media design, and facilitating location-based mixed-media projects with a variety of user communities.

She worked on the development of the Futurelab createascape website, a resource for pupils and teachers on how to use HPlabs mscape software in an educational setting.

Constance interests encompass showing people how to be creative producers with pervasive technology and not just consumers.  She is also interested in exploring what might be embedded or hidden in pervasive technology applications, whether deliberate or due to the assumptions of the designer.
