Head of Education and Digital Media Resources, Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow. In 1995, in association with colleagues from the Department of Computing Science, Jim initiated a collaborative program between the Hunterian and the University's Department of Computing Science which has led to a wide variety of innovative multimedia projects focussed around the Hunterian collections. This has included an award winning web site incorporating audio, video and QuickTime Virtual Reality.

Jim has been involved in the supervision of several multimedia academic project teams with colleagues in the Computing Science Department as part of an ongoing collaborative efforts in developing new applications for leading edge technologies.
