Benedict Singleton is a designer and writer who lives and works in
London. He divides his time between independent design strategy
consultancy (for a range of organizations from small biotech start-ups
to multinational corporations) and more experimental design work. He
is currently working on a Ph.D. in Design at Northumbria University
with the working title 'Subtle empires', which draws on architecture,
philosophy and the history of technology to trace a history of
suspicions about artisans, and what they tell us about the relationship
between people and artefacts.
