Dr Sophy Smith is Principle Lecturer at the Institute of Creative Technologies, De Montfort University. As part of this post, she wrote and now leads the innovative Masters in Creative Technologies (MA/MSc), a transdisciplinary programme where students work across the discipline boundaries of Art and Design, Humanities, e-sciences and Technology. Sophy also runs workshops on transdisciplinary research projects as well as workshops focused on assessing creativity across the arts and sciences. Her current research focuses on inter/multi/transdisciplinary collaboration, primarily, but not restricted to professional arts practice and social media. Sophy's PhD was awarded for her research into the collaborative compositional processes of hip-hop turntable musicians and she also works extensively as a composer and performer on professional collaborative arts projects.
