Media Sandbox and Gloucestershire Media Group are pleased to invite you to attend a mini ideas lab to generate ideas and develop applications for the Pervasive Experiences strand of this year’s Media Sandbox.

When: 6-9pm, Monday 28th June 2010

Where: Board Room / Room 2. Level 4, Llanthony Warehouse, Gloucester Docks, Gloucester, GL1 2EH

Bringing together leading technology, artistic and media talent, Media Sandbox is a commissioning scheme to support South West companies/organisations to research emerging possibilities in digital media.

In 2010, four £10,000 commissions will be awarded to research projects exploring innovative Pervasive Experiences - ground-breaking ideas that dovetail mobile, wireless and sensory technologies with content and context, to create meaningful experiences.

This free event will take the form of a mini ideas lab and will offer the opportunity to examine the theme, generate ideas, find out more about the scheme and meet some interesting people.

Media Sandbox will open for applications on 30th June 2010. The application form will be available for download from 23rd June. Whilst it is not mandatory to attend, we do advise anyone considering applying to come along.

The ideas lab will be held at Board Room / Room 2, Level 4, Llanthony Warehouse, Gloucester Docks, Gloucester, GL1 2EH.

This event is free, but booking is essential. To reserve a place, please email victoria@watershed.co.uk
