Hannah Rosamonde Perner-Wilson

Born in 1983 and raised in Brighton/ England, I moved to Austria with my family at the age of ten. After completing High School in Salzburg I moved to America for a year where I travelled, worked and took some college courses. The following year I attended a foundation year in art and design studies at Reading College of Art and Design in England.

Since 2003 I have been studying Industrial Design at the Art University in Linz and have since found myself considering the combination of new media technologies with formal product language to communicate information. I'm interest in how traditional industrial manufacturing elements, which through their production numbers are widely spread and commonly known, can be applied to communicate non-commercial information.

Since 2004 I have been taking courses at the newly founded department of Interface Culture where Christa Sommerer and Laurent Mignonneau, in cooperation with the Ars Electronica Futurelab and various invited lecturers, are teaching the use of and critical approach towards new media within a very wide spectrum of possibility.

When realizing projects I find myself drawn towards the ways in which objects, whether of material nature or data, convey their content. This close relationship between message and medium always plays an important role in my work and ideas around the environment in which objects are approached occupy my time.
