Using a wide range of media and techniques to explore my fascination for creativity, I work in many fields including fine art, photography, graphic design, web design, 3d modelling, visualization, product design, HCI, UX and user interface design.
Before moving to Bali, I was Director of Research and Development at Jawbone. I now work mainly on product design focused on sustainability. I ran a lecture series in London at Tate Modern on computer graphics under my company Supernatural and continue to work on speech writing and presentation development.
I currently use this site as a portfolio of recent projects and concepts and also home to my blog where I discuss ideas, news and areas of this great wide world that pique my diverse interests ...and yes, my real name is zissou.  

Sustainability


Since moving to Bali in 2010 I have become far more deeply involved in sustainable thinking and design. I have built a bamboo home in the jungle, grow a wide range of fruit and vegetables and make a concerted effort to become more aware and considerate of nature and it's vital role in allowing us to live on this planet. To this end, should you have a creative project you feel could advance this type of neo-realism and are looking for creative assistance, you can contact me via the link above.

Chindogu

‘Chindogu’ is the japanese word coined for the art of the unuseless idea. Strangely practical and utterly eccentric inventions for a life of ease and hilarity.
