[Scott Townsend Proposal and Archive]
I create digital and physical interactions and visualizations working in communities as a form of public engagement and research. I publish with colleagues in the social sciences in peer-reviewed publications, books and conferences. I also create digital and physical installations, recently integrating older ways of making with augmented reality.
