Dr Innocent connects people and place through urban play. Working with the city as a material, his work traverses the analog and digital spaces we live in. He calls his approach to speculative design ‘reworlding’ as it reimagines the creative, linguistic, cultural, social diversity of our world. Innocent is creator of 64 Ways of Being, an innovative augmented reality platform for listening, playing and exploring cities through new eyes, and leads a three-year study on post-pandemic impacts of creative placemaking.

He explores multiple ways of being in his works of design, sculpture, animation, sound, light and installation using methods of multiplatform storytelling that connect objects with their environment to build speculative worlds, games people can play. These worlds explore connections between language and reality, engaging with the contemporary mediascape through his unique aesthetic language that traverses geometric abstraction and digital iconography and has 25 years’ experience in gallery-based exhibitions, symposia and site-specific projects.
