Harwood is best known for his collaborative work Rehearsal of Memory (1995) produced with maximum security mental patients (permanent Collection Centre Pompidou et Musée National d'Art Moderne) and as a core member of the Mongrel group which has won numerous awards including the ICA London’s Imaginaria award and the Clarks Digital Bursary.
Mongrel is best known for the National Heritage and Natural Selection projects, both of which explored racialisation and the new eugenics. It is closely associated with the formation of social software and software art through its development of Linker, HeritageGold and BlackLash.
Harwood received the first online commission from Tate Gallery London for Uncomfortable Proximity for which he won the Leonardo New Horizons Award for Innovation in New Media. Harwood has spent the last few years working in the Netherlands with the Waag Society and Imagine IC constructing Nine(9), a collaborative engine for celebrating the lives of those locked out of the cultural mainstream. He now lives and works in Southend-on-Sea with Matsuko (another founder member of Mongrel) and their son Lani where they continue their investigations.
