Adrian Miles is a new media artist and Senior Lecturer in Cinema and New Media at RMIT University, Melbourne. He was formally Senior Researcher in New Media at the InterMedia Lab, University of Bergen. He has published widely on hypertext and hypermedia and is also a networked interactive video developer and has exhibited his applied projects in this area internationally.
Miles’ creative practice explores the aesthetics and affordances of networked, distributed video and the possibilities for new forms of distribution and expression that this may enable. Part of Miles’ video blog project Vog__was exhibited at 'Data difference’ at the 2004 Biennale of Electronic Arts Perth (BEAP). At this time Miles’ research practice concentrated on hypermedia, interactive narrative, network literacies, emergent electronic humanities genres and the development of media annotation tools to facilitate audiovisual research in humanities contexts. He pursued a theoretical interest in link poetics and conceptualising an aesthetics of interactive video. This work utilised the cinema theory of Gilles Deleuze and sought to apply it in novel ways to rethink notions of interactivity, the user, and the text.
In his teaching practice Adrian has used process based methodologies to explore emergent pedagogies and network literacies across disciplines, including hypertext theory and practice, interactive audiovisual media,
and cinema studies.
Miles has served on the Literary Advisory Board of the Electronic Literature Organization, and the editorial boards of inFlect, PostModern Culture, Text Technology, and Scan: Journal of Media Arts and Culture. He has also served on the executive committee of the Association for Computers and the Humanities, and been a regular program
committee member for the annual conferences of the ACM hypertext SIG, the Association for Computers and the Humanities, and the Digital Arts and Culture conference series.
