About me

He was a chief investigator on four recent Australian Research Council grants (involving research infrastructures and cultural heritage), and an Australian Research Data Commons Platform Grant. He trained as an architect, and architectural historian, received a second masters (with honours) in philosophy, and his PhD (Australian Research Council Industry Scholarship) was from two Faculties (Engineering-Geomatics and Architecture) with Lonely Planet as the industry partner. A Fulbright scholar, he has been invited to speak in over 20 countries and has written or co-edited 10 books so far. He specializes in virtual heritage and serious games and was recently a visiting scholar in Finland. He has been teaching multimedia since 1990 but designed his first computer game at the start of the 1980s and wrote New Zealand's first degree in Performing and Screen Arts. He currently teaches Managing Game Design and an architectural elective in advanced digital media. PhD opportunities can be viewed on the UniSA PHD projects website. Prior to academia, he worked for Digital, Compaq, Hansen Technologies, and London Council.

In 2023 he is cochair of ICOMOS General Assembly's Digital Heritage theme, UniSA academic lead of a Cooperative Research Council application, and has been invited to speaker at the University of Milan, Italy, and invited adjunct Professor, by Universitas Bunda Mulia, Jakarta. He can be followed on Twitter at @nzerik or LinkedIn.
