Who is Sarah Barns?

I'm an Australian-based researcher & producer with a curious mind and a passion for transformational ideas.

My interests tend to lie somewhere between the realms of emerging technologies, public culture and experimentation. Over the years I've worked across media and technology, city planning and consulting, and the arts, museum and education sectors. 

Whether I'm producing a large scale installation or delivering organisational strategy, my work is highly research-led and collaborative.

Some of the places you can find me and my work:
