The moment you have a great idea. Hairs stand up on the back of your neck. Your pupils dilate and your cheeks tingle. For over four years Alison John (yello brick) and Julian Sykes (Hoffi) have been looking at how patterns, story and games, can be brought together to create unique experiences. With the goal of creating spaces that encourage trust, friendship and a new understanding of the urban environment that people take for granted.

The pair will discuss their experiences of creating multi-platform experiences using online social media through to creating pervasive/theatre games. They will look to discuss how you can create content for the individual and also look back at how past generations had already done this before.

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.

Let us know if you’d like a tour of the space and we'll be happy to show you around. Send an email to admin@pmstudio.co.uk
