Hit Me Not is an investigation from Theo Willitts from Diploma in Creative Computing. The project aims to discover how we can better orchestrate the design and development of active travel in our cities through data collection, analysis and communication.

Taking the form of an app, Hit Me Not allows users to report traffic incidents while on-the-go to gain a qualitative and quantitative advantage over other crowd-sourced feedback systems.

To what extent are we able to think and communicate through nonverbal codes?

That’s the question asked by Mia Zeferino-Birchall from UAL Diploma in Creative Computing. The answer is ‘DANCE|COMMUNICATION’ – an experimental study of embodied cognition and nonverbal communication.

“Inspired by my lifelong love of dance, I delve into the world of visualising the nonverbal and transforming movement and gestures into an interactive visual language,” says Mia of her project, which blends together performance and audience.

Does visible sadness in a soft-robotic artefact elicit empathy and reduce verbally aggressive language during human-robot interaction?

That's the question that Janice Lee from MSc Creative Robotics aims to answer with her project 'Crying Robots & Human Empathy'. It investigates how humans respond when a robot displays sadness through tear-like behaviour and a distressed gaze.

To learn more about making robots cry, discover Janice's project (and many more) on UAL Showcase, the always-on platform for student creativity at University of the Arts London: https://bit.ly/3NRNlks

'But how will I be remembered?' is a project by Phoebe Lemon on MA Internet Equalities. The project is a prototype for a community-led digital archive created through the designer’s own search for agency and belonging as a Chinese adoptee.

The title echoes a question left in a TikTok comment by a Chinese adoptee in the wake of recent policy changes suspending international adoption from China. It is both a plea and a provocation, asking what remains of us when our history is missing, altered, or never written at all.

Phoebe's project won in the Equality and Access category at the CCI Winter Festival 2025, and took home the Judge's Award to boot.

Meet Laula Nassimoldina – a creative computing practitioner from Kazakhstan. Her project ‘Control Your Space’ is a digital VR archive that pays homage to her cultural and gender identity. ‘Control Your Space’ centres the female Kazakhstani artists who didn’t always have the platform for their work because it was mostly textile-based.

Laula chats to us about her journey from the humanities into Creative Computing, what she hopes to take from her time at CCI and why computer science is more than just “not creativity”.

'Flux ID: Detect, Measure, Protect' by Haofei Niu from MSc Creative Robotics is a low-cost, human-centred sensing system designed to help communities uncover hidden pollution in their local waterways.

Winning in the Sustainable Future category at the CCI Winter Festival 2025, this project features modular components like a capacitive sensor, a turbine flow meter, and a compact processing unit, the system transforms complex monitoring tasks into an accessible, plug-and-play setup that citizen scientists can deploy with confidence.

'Flux ID' represents not just a technical solution to pollution but a social tool as well; bridging the gap between citizens and environmental governance, supporting a more transparent, empowered, and ecologically responsible future.

To explore 'Flux ID' and more student projects, visit UAL Showcase, where our students display their work and their creative practices to the wider world as they take the next step in their career: https://bit.ly/4s7cEhO

Introducing 'Bent Ebjad' by Munirah AlShami – an installation that reinterprets Sadu weaving, native to the Arabian peninsula, and the main wall within the architecture of an Arabian tent, the “Ebjad”.

Blending extensive research of the art form, understanding technology as a form of craft and an exploration of different technological mediums, 'Bent Ebjad' weaves these older expressions of Arabian heritage with newer art forms such as music and dance.

Explore 'Bent Ebjad' and more student work at UAL Showcase, an online platform that allows graduating students to display their work on a global stage: https://bit.ly/454Lv5m
