Tuck works with the Social Inclusion and the Digital Economy (SiDE) hub at Newcastle University. Designed in Malaysia and subsequently exported to Melbourne, Australia, Tuck's background is wide-ranging. Spanning Immunology, music, languages, multimedia and interaction design, his interest in technology is primarily focused upon understanding how people use, interact with, and in turn how they experience and make sense of their technology use.
Tuck has published widely on aspects of randomness and how it could inform designs for user-experience. This is linked to his investigation of our experience of serendipity when we interact with digital music
