Hello! I am David Gauntlett. I am from the UK but since 2018 I am a Canada Research Chair at The Creative School, Toronto Metropolitan University. I run the Creativity Everything lab and the SSHRC-funded project Creative Encounters (2025–28). I have written 10 books including Making is Connecting. I have worked with organisations such as the BBC, Tate, and in particular LEGO. Recently I have produced eight music releases, and the book Creativity (formats include audiobook!).
This site contains information about my books and projects, and includes videos and a blog. You can see further information about me, and a complete list of publications, and research grants. The complete list of blog posts is a quick route to various things. And there’s a collection of items about practice-based research. Please do ask me if you’d like to do something interesting. And do join the mailing list for occasional email updates.
