Professor Ian Howard
Research Expertise
Professor Howard's training nationally and internationally in
art, art education and film and television production, has provided
strong foundations for a career that encompasses artistic, academic
and administrative leadership roles in the area of experimental
media production. The subject matter of his research is concerned
with the relationship between military and civilian populations.
This aesthetic shifts between the unlikely quadrants of conceptual
art, archaeology, popular culture and agit-prop, resulting in an
output that includes gallery exhibited images, objects and videos,
major international site projects/performances and broadcast media
productions. The ambition of Howard's research is to provide a framework
which enables the open and expressive interpretation of pertinent
subject matter resulting in a convincing narrative about issues
of social significance. Digital cinema and the reformulation of
narrative through the integration of interactivity is the vehicle
through which this ambition is achieved.
