This paper wishes to convey in the large the experience of a mutual collaboration between science and art and in the small the fruits of that collaboration both technically and artistically. Technologies in the area of human interface design which reconsider and extend the desktop metaphor as a means of com-puter interaction in the light of the progress made in hardware and software technology recently will be discussed. These include subsets stemming from the implementation of a new general purpose graphical user interface and multimedia framework, zoomable and textual user interfaces and translucent free-form windows. Artistic issues rooted in many works of the artist will be briefly touched upon in order to show where the artist's interests lay and the directions being pursued in general. These include the use of transparency for modularity in design and optical phenomena to bring about kinetic relationships between elements of that modularity. Both aspects finding implementation separately in acoustic and electronic works preceding GoingPublik. Finally, how the diverse interests manifesting in the arts and sciences were then brought together coherently into a creative tool for realtime score synthesis (RSS) whose central element revolves around the possibilities of a mobile-multimedia system and which was employed in the sonic art work GoingPublik, are concluded with.
