Andrew Matthew Shoben, FRBS FRSA (born 8th Nov. 1971, in London UK) is an English artist, academic and broadcaster. He is Professor of Public Art and Computation at Goldsmiths, University of London [1] as well as a Fellow of the Royal British Society of Sculptors [2] and a Fellow of the Royal Society of the Arts.[3] He is considered one of the world's leading practitioners of public art,[4] especially in relation to digital[5] and other interactive technologies.[6]

As the founder of greyworld, a public art collective, he has lectured and broadcast extensively on art in public spaces for BBC Radio[7] and Channel 4 TV[8] in the UK. His art is primarily concerned with the notions of play in urban space,[9] and specifically the art systems that can be employed to this end.[10]
