Ed S. Johnston is a computational artist and designer working across moving image, digital fabrication, and immersive spatial installations. Through pattern-driven methods and first-person recordings, he develops Voxelations—spatial forms that merge video, data, and geometry to explore lived time, memory, and attention. His practice bridges computational systems and contemplative experience to create environments that invite viewers to encounter time as a spatial and shared condition.

Alongside his studio practice, Johnston has led and collaborated on extended reality and cultural heritage projects that use immersive technologies to support public engagement, spatial storytelling, and experiential design research. These projects extend his broader interest in how computational media can shape human experience across artistic, educational, and cultural contexts. Johnston is an Associate Professor in the Robert Busch School of Design at Kean University’s Michael Graves College in Union, New Jersey.
