About Me

James Self: UNIST, South Korea, Ulsan, South Korea; My research interests explore the methods, processes, experiential knowledge and expertise employed in the practice of design. In particular my research focuses on the industrial designer’s approach to and use of designerly tools: analog and digital sketching, prototyping and haptic modelling systems for example. Through the investigation of tool use in the embodiment of design intent, the critical relationship between designerly tools and design activity is explored. How these tools are used to externalise design intentions as solution conjectures and what this means in terms of the designer’s understanding of the design problem. Ongoing studies explore the relationship between tool use, reflection-in- action, design thinking and practice. My research area may be categorized as design activity and experiential knowledge.
