Katie Day joined the Pervasive Media Studio as Associate Producer of Theatre Sandbox, a commissioning scheme for theatre artists and companies to research and develop new ideas utilising pervasive media technologies. In December 2010, Katie will return to Birmingham to continue the development of her own projects through her company The Other Way Works.

For this lunchtime talk, Katie uses the knowledge and experience gained through her involvement with Theatre Sandbox to explore her own theatre projects using pervasive media. This involves sharing an insight into past successes, as well as presenting early, unformed ideas for potential projects – for which Katie invites creative and technical input.

The focus of this event is on sharing experiences gained in the area of emerging technologies and performance and discussing ideas - a great opportunity to meet people interested in theatre in the digital age.

This Lunchtime Talk is part of Open Studio Friday which takes place at the Studio every week:

Do you want to find out what is going on at the Pervasive Media Studio? Are you interested in meeting our residents, talking about a specific project or curious about pervasive media? Why not pack a sandwich and join us for one of our Lunchtime Talks and Open Studio
Friday.

Lunchtime Talks are informal presentations by Studio residents and associates. They normally take place at 1pm on Friday, are free and open to everybody who’s interested in what we do.

After the Talk, we also invite you to stay with us for the afternoon to continue the conversation or work on your own projects. We provide chairs, tables, wireless and a great space. You bring what you need to work with (laptop/mobile). Our open afternoons close at 5pm, usually with a trip to the bar.

Let us know if you haven’t been to the Studio before and we'll be happy to show you around! Send an email to Shirin@pmstudio.co.uk and we will meet you at 12.30pm for a quick tour. We look forward to seeing you soon!
