Peter Thiedeke is an interdisciplinary image-maker working at the intersection of art and design. He contributes to international collectives and collaborates with creative agencies, publishers, technologists, designers, architects, universities, museums, activists, and cultural festivals. He has exhibited in London, Paris, New York, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Tokyo, and Buenos Aires. He has received awards from the D&AD (Design and Art Direction, Worldwide), the AOP (Association of Photographers, UK) and the Nikon Press Awards (UK).
Peter holds a PhD in urban media art, which is concerned with a post-digital critique of surveillance capitalism in the Smart City through urban informatics, media architecture, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Everything (IoE). He uses speculative design to imagine visual futures and create place-based acupunctural interventions. Peter is a fellow of the Higher Education Academy and a Lecturer at the Queensland College of Art and Design, where he is a project leader of Future Projections, a funded initiative for the Creative Arts Research Institute (CARI) at Griffith University.
