Mark Roxburgh
Mark Roxburgh is associate professor of design at the University of Newcastle. Mark’s research interests cover design research, visual communication theory and practice, photographic theory and practice and user experience design. His Ph.D. explored the central role that visual images and visual perception play in design, with a specific emphasis on how photographic images condition us to perceive, experience and transform the world in a self-replicating manner. His ongoing research pursuits have been: developing a phenomenological theory of photography to counter the dominance of critical theory and semiotic deconstruction; developing a theory of design as a form of embodied perceptual synthesis to counter the dominance of the design problem solving metaphor.
