'Preface' and 'Copies, doubles and skeuomorphs'
Exhibition catalogue for 'Neil Brownsword: Obsolescence and Renewal', at the Crafts Study Centre, 17 September 2024 to 8 February 2025.
This exhibition is the latest of artist Neil Brownsword’s investigations into the marginalised histories of North Staffordshire, focusing on its early industrial growth. A combination of digital imagery, 3D-printed objects, large-scale tapestries, slip cast objects and museum artefacts, the exhibition explores how materials and techniques familiar to one medium are applied to another, and the material slippages, technological innovation and subversion that result. His ‘copies without originals’ reconnect audiences to innovations of an obscured industrial past that remain significant to the cultural identity of North Staffordshire and the nation’s ceramic history at large
The Isovist_App: a basic user guide, version 1.7
Version 1.7 is a major update to accompany the release of the isovist_App_2.4.9 in February 2024.
The Isovist_App is a free multi-platform software tool. It has been designed as an intuitive interface to advance the learning and adoption of spatial analysis techniques at all levels, from undergraduate learning, to advanced research, and in design practice. It is based upon the spatial unit known as the ‘isovist’, defined as the finite volume of space that is visible at any given point at which a perceiver might exist
My First Haircut
The idea for My First Haircut (2024) originated from the observation that many children experience fear or anxiety about visiting a hairdresser. Getting a haircut can be intimidating: the unfamiliar tools, the sound of scissors, the sensation of hair falling. To address this, I aimed to create an unflattened picturebook that explains the process and allows children to simulate it through pretend play. By physically participating in the narrative through the book object, readers can gain a sense of agency and familiarity with the haircutting process
Signature Style
Essay in: Dry Humping*
Ambitious Outsiders (Silverhill Press) · Nov, 2023
Publication (designed by Richard de Pasando) as culmination of the project Dry Humping* by Sadie Hennessy:
"Earlier this year I was thinking about the idea of the ‘artist’s voice’ or their signature style, and wondered if I had such a thing. In order to find out I put an Open Call out, inviting people to submit work that was in the style of my own, to be considered for inclusion in a ‘solo show’ (by me!). I gave them my website address (www.sadiehennessy.co.uk) as I didn’t assume they’d be familiar with what I do. Then I waited to see what came back. There were over 70 responses which I whittled down to 45. These works have now been brought together in a beautiful publication, with essays from Dr. Lucy Howarth, Camilla Ellingsen Webster and Professor Matthew Worley, published by Ambitious Outsiders Press."

‘Co-creating’ experiential learning in the metaverse- extending the Kolb’s learning cycle and identifying potential challenges
The metaverse has the potential to expand our understanding of the physical world by enabling seamless avatar-based interaction between users in both real and virtual contexts. Based on current insights, it is likely that learning and development methods for the management education in the metaverse will be transformed due to the blurring of lines between the virtual and real worlds. This study, based on systematic literature review, aims to present a framework to contextualize experiential learning in the metaverse for management education by highlighting the facilitators and potential challenges. The study also identifies ‘co-creation’ as a distinct dimension of the experiential learning cycle, which extends the existing Kolb's learning cycle to highlight the significance of interaction in the metaverse. The implications of this study are significant for both academics and practitioners, as the metaverse is still in its early stages, and discussions on management education via co-creation provide a rational
perspective to consider for the future developmental needs

Harnessing the power of video editing to convey subliminal messages and intentions: The art of visual manipulation using different editing techniques
This research explores the power of video editing to convey subliminal messages and intentions and the art of visual manipulation using different editing techniques. The core objective is to diversify video editing techniques on the same subject to affect viewers' emotions and inclinations differently according to the purpose of each method.
The study employs the methodological triangulation approach to process identical footage on the issue of animal cruelty in Egypt into three distinct edited versions, each tailored to a specific audience:
Short expository documentary (Method 1): This approach is emotionally driven, using techniques like a dog character ("Zaki") narrating the story, employing music, natural sounds, and visual effects to appeal to the audience's sentimentalities, particularly the Egyptian audience.
Informative News Report (Method 2): This version is straightforward and condensed, conveying information without emotional coloring, relying on a news voice-over, natural sound, and sound bites from experts, and excluding music and visual effects.
Interview with an expert/specialist (Method 3): This method focuses on a carefully edited interview, using illustrative footage to separate cut parts, and appropriate visual effects to make it engaging and enhance credibility for viewers already interested in the subject.
The research includes a critical analysis of the editing techniques in previous works, such as EO, Au hazard Balthazar, Cow, and a Brooke Foundation campaign. The conclusion asserts that the video editor does not create the film but presents it to the audience, constantly searching for new techniques and keeping up with technological advancements to enhance the final product
