“Stuart was a Magician in Residence at Pervasive Media studio and we have worked with him many times as an artist and facillitator. He has highly original ideas – he explores everything from unusual angles, which is inspiring and educational to be around. He is a natural communicator, and from performance to text is gifted at sharing his thinking with others.”
Clare Reddington, Creative Director and CEO of Watershed
“Stuart was a member of trade missions to Malaysia and France. He was both insightful and charming to work with, a great skill when communicating across languages and cultures. Everything we needed and more. Highly recommended.”
Anthony Jamieson – Trade Mission Coordinator.
“I’ve worked with Stuart a great deal and he never ceases to amaze – both with his knowledge and understanding of digital media and with his magical delivery. He brings excitement and humour to any project, which plays a big part in getting the most out of people. He’s a real joy to work with, and I always look forward to our projects together.”
Phil Birchenall, Projects Director, The White Room
“No way! I’m keeping my eyes glued right and I’ve no idea how he did that. What the #$*!”
Roberta Parry, Extreme Sports Channel Launch Party Organiser.

“Stuart has consistently brought innovative, highly relevant research to the training and mentoring he has delivered on our behalf over the last 5 years. He possesses a unique all-round understanding of interactive media and what it means for content creators, broadcasters, advertisers and brands, with a keen awareness of emerging trends. Besides his in-depth knowledge, the quality of his training and mentoring has always been exceptional.”
Lynne McCadden, Director of Skills and New Projects, Vision+Media
“Stuart is a very exciting speaker. His talks, performance, and workshops are always challenging but always compelling. His work is truly interdisciplinary, he inhabits so many disciplinary areas that he naturally makes connections between seemingly unrelated areas in order to illuminate key ideas for the audience.”
Jon Wardle, Director of the Centre for Excellence in Media Practice
“We ran a programme called The Artimelt Academy to stimulate creative ideas generation for all things relating to the digital sphere. There they were; a group of people, mostly strangers, yet we wanted them in there, talking, sharing and getting curious about ideas and each other – and quickly. Could we have done better than bring in Stuart to work his magic at the first session? I doubt it.”
Nicola Stephenson, Director, The Culture Company
