Wednesday, May 20th, 2009This month Culture Lab will be hosting Super Mondays, a strong and vibrant community of IT enthusiasts based in The North East of England who meet up once a month for a range of IT user group meetings and some unstructured discussions.
The event will start at 18:00 with tea and coffee and demonstration of several of the innovative technology projects including the ambient kitchen and surface computing.
At 19:00 we will then go upstairs where we will hear from the following speakers:
1. Patrick Olivier – Cultural Technologies
Patrick will talk about the work of his lab at Newcastle University on cultural technologies and human-computer interaction.
2. Jayne Wallace — Meaningful Technologies
Jayne is a post-doctoral researcher in the School of Computing Science at Newcastle University and has been developing her practice of digital jewellery design as a means of exploring how we can use digital technologies to create objects that can hold more significance and meaning for us than mobile phones and the usual gadgets. Jayne will talk about her methods, designs and how the space for digital technology design is much wider than we might at first think.
