Joe Duffy International Lead; Senior Lecturer, Filmmaking

I am the International Lead responsible for establishing new partnerships between SODA and courses globally for student exchange opportunities, recruitment and collaborative learning projects that enrich our student and staff experience through working on exciting projects with colleagues across the world.

I am interested in teaching and learning, course development and embedding an international experience for all of our students, while highlighting and promoting the amazing work we produce in Manchester at SODA.

I am a practicing artist engaged with filmmaking, photography and installation work with recent projects involving investigations of memory and trauma within landscapes working between emergent media to analogue processes to examine place.

I’m an explorer recreating scenes through playful activity with an interest in archives, installation, interaction and storytelling, collaboration and inclusion. I’ve exhibited work internationally, presented at many conferences and am also external examiner for a number of courses nationally and Internationally.
