About the Authors
Dublin, Ireland (
www.itb.ie
). In 1980 (you do the math) Matt started computer
programming (on a ZX80) and has been programming ever since. In 1985, Matt wrote
the lyrics, and was a member of the band that played (and sang, sorry about that by the
way) the music on the B-side of the audio cassette carrying the computer game Confuzion
(
wikipedia.org/wiki/Confuzion
).
Matt Smith
is senior lecturer in computing at the Institute of Technology Blanchardstown,
Matt holds a bachelor's degree in Business Computing (Huddersfield University, UK), and
as that was a bit boring, he went on to get a masters in Artificial Intelligence (Aberdeen
University, Scotland), and a PhD in Computational Musicology (Open University, UK). Having
run out of money after 10 years as a full-time student, he began his career as a lecturer
and academic. He has been lecturing and researching on programming, artificial intelligence,
web development, and interactive multimedia for almost 20 years, holding full-time positions
at Winchester University and London's Middlesex University, before moving to his present
post in Ireland in 2002. In recent years, Matt has replaced Flash-based 2D multimedia with
Unity-based 3D game development and interactive virtual environments subjects for his
computing and digital media undergraduates.
To keep himself fit, Matt took up the Korean martial art of Taekwon-Do (he developed and
runs his club's website at
www.maynoothtkd.com
), and a group of his BSc students are
now developing a Unity-based Taekwon-Do interactive "tutor" with Microsoft Kinect cameras.
Some of his previous Irish-French student team games can be found and played at
www.
saintgermes.com
(thanks for continuing to host these, Guillem!). Matt was one of the two
technical experts for a recent multimedia European project for language and cultural student
work mobility (
vocalproject.eu
).
