3. createwithpixels.com, plus its Android and Apple app.

As a volunteer executive director at The Noakes Foundation, he provides strategic direction for its brand.

Travis' undergrad degree specialised in graphic design. After completing an MA in Digital Arts, he worked as a full-time designer (1997-99), multimedia manager (2000-05) and brand manager (2006-8). For the latter, he led BODY iQ's national re-branding into Virgin Life Care, now myvirginactive.co.za.

Travis did UCT d.school's inaugural design thinking course in 2016. His PhD thesis at the Centre for Film and Media Studies built on his interest in design by exploring how learners' visual arts e-portfolios reflected cultural repertoires linked to both their circumstances and capabilities. His postdoctoral research fellowship at the Faculty of Informatics and Design, CPUT identified the emergent challenge of online academic bullying. This inspired the development of CWCT's anti-chat harassment tactics booklet, plus Shushmoji ® 'end of conversation' chat stickers for use via WhatsApp or in print.
