Design of Death

We are Senior Lecturers in Graphic Design at Falmouth University and our research project, Moth, is an exploration of visual language and typographic discovery, focused upon the ‘Design of Death’. We see ourselves as emerging researchers in this field with an expertise in graphic design and an interest in graphic anthropology: how design shapes, and is shaped by cultural values and social practices with particular relevance to our understanding of the design of death. We want to produce work, which can facilitate problem solving in the context of death and death studies and create ‘tools’ in order to help articulate process. The Moth Project focuses upon the importance of ideas as triggers of creativity, as devices for narrative and as loci for opportunities of chance and transition in the context of loss and bereavement. In addition, the Moth Project explores metaphors embedded within layers of meaning specific to individual ‘readers’ (those who have experienced bereavement or are interested in contemplating mortality) and societal conventions and traditions

Architectures of control in consumer product design

Copyright @ 2005 Social Services Research GroupThe idea of architectures of control is introduced through examples ranging from urban planning to digital rights management, and the intentions behind their use in consumer products are examined, with reference to case studies of printer cartridges and proposed 'optimum lifetime products.' The reactions of the technical community and consumers themselves are also explored, along with some wider implications for society

Cambridge International

It is now standard practice in computational science for large scale simulations to be implemented and investigated in a problem solving environment (PSE) such as MATLAB or MAPLE. In such an environment, a scientist or engineer will formulate a mathematical model, approximate its solution using an appropriate numerical method, visualize the approximate solution and verify (or validate) the quality of the approximate solution
