Trained as both Printmaker and Photographer at Atelier 17 and Goldsmiths, Professor Martin Rieser has always been fascinated by the possibility of creating fragmentary narrative structures and interactive stories using new technology. This has led him into his current explorations using mobile and locative technologies and large-scale interactive video experiences.

Professor Rieser has worked in the field of interactive arts for many years. He has recently returned to electronic printmaking in which field he was a pioneer and curator, developing the first International Electronic Print exhibition in the Uk at Arnolfini Gallery in Bristol in the lat 1980s.He also developed the first reliable method of printing full colour computer images om ceramic surfaces in the early 1990s. He is Joint research Professor between the Institute of Creative Technologies and The Faculty of Art and Design at De Montfort.

His art practice in internet art and interactive narrative installations has been seen around the world including Cannes; Holland, Paris; Vienna, Thessaloniki, London, Germany, Milan and Melbourne, Australia. He has published numerous essays and books on digital art including New Screen Media: Cinema/ Art/Narrative (BFI/ZKM, 2002), and has recently edited The Mobile Audience, a book on locative technology and art due out this year from Rodopi.
