Background
Fionnuala Conway is a musician/composer and multimedia artist. With a background in music and music technology, Fionnuala has worked as composer and performer on a number of theatre productions. Her interest in the application of new media and technology to art and performance prompted a return to academia and her PhD thesis, Exploring Citizenship through Art and Technology, focuses on the creative use of technology to generate awareness of citizenship (and other social issues), with a particular focus on interactive immersive physical environments. The Art of Decision project, shown in May 2005, is a practical manifestation of this research. A feature-length documentary, Art of Decision, was produced in 2006. She has produced work in a wide variety of forms, from traditional materials to interactive digital media, wearable technology, installations and theatre presentation, including Urban Chameleon, in collaboration with Katherine Moriwaki, and the Reactive Performance Dress designed for the musician, Miriam Ingram. Fionnuala completed a Bachelor of Music at University College, Dublin in 1994 and an M.Phil. in Music and Media Technologies at Trinity College, Dublin in 1999. She has been lecturing on the M.Phil. in Music and Media Technologies course since 2002 and was appointed Course Director in 2006.
