James Auger and Jimmy Loizeau have been collaborating as Auger Loizeau on projects since the Audio Tooth Implant concept was conceived whilst at the Royal College of Art in 2001. Post R.C.A. they worked at Media Lab Europe in Dublin as research associates. They are currently based in London and lecture at the Royal College of Art and Goldsmiths University. Current research includes collaboration with Bath University on the Material Beliefs project, and a Philips Design funded project researching the sense of smell. Their work has been published and exhibited internationally. They combine a range of disciplines including engineering, fine art and industrial design to develop products and services that contradict and question current design ideology.

Tobie Kerridgeis a researcher and PhD candidate at Goldsmiths, currently contributing to collaborative projects funded by ERC and EPSRC. His research explores how design methods can be extended to provide individuals with creative ownership of technology. He is also a visiting lecturer at Goldsmiths, the Royal College of Art, and TU/e. His thesis reflects upon the novel contributions of speculative design as a method for public engagement with science and technology. The writing focuses on two practice based projects, Biojewellery and Material Beliefs. These projects were supported by the EPSRC through Partnerships for Public Engagement awards.
