Philosophy

The Internet has fundamentally changed our lives and communities, it has even affected the way in which communities themselves are created and developed. I believe that we live in a world of fascinating people and remarkable stories. Through using today’s Internet and Multimedia technologies we have the opportunity to bring communities together, to capture memories of the past and to share cultural and historical resources with formerly disenfranchised audiences.

DA Taylor Design Associates

With a background in the History of Art, degrees from two prestigious universities (University of Edinburgh/University of California, Berkeley) and a range of museum, gallery and archival experience, Emily has a knack for exploring and dissecting issues of space, accessibility and organisation. Emily’s primary interests rest in digital curation and design; in particular she is passionate about exploring and promoting methods for studying and displaying earth and land art, including organic, ephemeral creations. Emily’s career path initially began in the field of public relations, and it was while working for a PR Firm in San Francisco that she collaborated on an art tour with some of San Francisco’s leading collectors and had her first foray into the professional art world. Since then, Emily has lent her expertise to a range of institutions, providing public relations and media outreach assistance to the Bowers Museum of Cultural Art, serving as the administrator and gallery supervisor for the Newport Harbor Nautical Museum, and voluntarily assisting the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art’s Archive and Library Department to digitise and catalogue photographs from their Roland Penrose collection.
