Pia Ednie-Brown, School of Architecture and Design, RMIT University, Australia. Pia Ednie-Brown is a designer, theorist and educator with creative research practice Onomatopoeia. She is an Associate Professor and Coordinator of Postgraduate Research in the School of Architecture and Design at RMIT University. Her research explores the implications of new technologies for design, relations between composition, diagramming and affect, ethics and aesthetics. From 2009 to 2011 she led an ARC project (with Prof. Mark Burry, Oron Catts, and Dr Andrew Burrow) seeking to re-theorise innovation for contemporary design practices in terms of coupled ethical and aesthetic concerns therein.
