We’re excited to share this in-depth reflection from David Matunda, a MyWorld Fellow in Residence at Knowle West Media Centre (KWMC) from November 2023 to September 2024.
David is a web developer, digital artist and creative technologist. His fellowship explored community technology infrastructure: how digital tools and physical spaces can support creativity, innovation, and accessibility for local communities.
In his blog, David reflects on:
- The role of community tech infrastructure in empowering local people.
- Prototypes he developed, including LoRaWAN soil sensors, interactive community feedback displays, and live-coded visual performances.
- Conversations with KWMC team members, researchers, and technologists that shaped his understanding of this work.
