Biosketch
I'm a seasoned interdisciplinary design researcher, creative technologist, digital media specialist and educational designer. With 15 years of experience working spanning responsible AI innovation, digital media and communications, interaction design, and systems-led innovation, I have collaborated with universities, government, and diverse cultural sectors.
I bring a depth of innovative foresight and practical design leadership. In collaborations with CSIRO and RMIT, I led the design and project management build of AMBER (a fine-tuned AI ethics chatbot prototype); adapting industry CX demands into explainable and operational frameworks for responsible AI innovation. The project was cited by CSIRO’s Director of Responsible Innovation as “a highly novel application of AI technology” and praised for “pushing the boundaries of what design and AI can achieve together.”
Working for RMIT College of Design and Social Context, I have developed and delivered novel Higher Education UX/UI, Affective Design, and Interaction Design curricula. My practice reflects a strong commitment to combining futurism with accessibility and embodied learning. Whether facilitating stakeholder co-design, prototyping responsible industry AI integrations, or developing affective interaction frameworks, I work with care, clarity, and purpose.
I'm also the founder of Nurobodi (Digital Wellbeing Startup). We're working on novel affective design research and methodologies for generating affective resonance loops within HCI Interactions.
Industry Quotes
“Cy’s work was a clear demonstration of his capacity to innovate within constraints… pushing the boundaries of what design and AI can achieve together....his ability to synthesise complex ideas from our multidisciplinary teams at CSIRO, Data 61 and RMIT was instrumental in the development of fine-tuning the base models we were working with.
I am keen to see where Cy’s work will lead to valuable insight, innovations and contributions that will
resonate across both industry, academic and policy domains.”
“I commissioned Cy Gorman as a media and audiovisual designer/producer to help bring my Fall collection, “BASS”, show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Sydney to life. Cy created the logo and brand animation, and integrated it onto digital screen bags that each model held whilst walking down the runway, broadcasting the animation live. The animation was synced to the audio beat, which Cy designed, engineered and produced. Cy is an all-round creative tech genius with an unstoppable drive to constantly push the boundaries of visual and audio design.”
