Hey, I'm Tia.
I'm Tia, a creative technologist and live visual artist working across music, Black culture and interactive experiences.
I've created and performed live visuals for JELEEL! and built interactive installations. For Giving Black Social, I created an installation for lead agency Nourishment, supporting Sickle Cell UK, with Wingstop and Sika Events among the event's sponsors and partners.
I discovered VJing while studying Creative Computing at the University of the Arts London. This bootcamp brings together the creative thinking and practical Resolume foundations I wish I'd had when I started, so you can begin mixing and performing visuals with confidence.
