Last Month's Activities
Sun, 24 Nov 2013
I can't believe it's been over a month since I've posted to my blog! It must be the longest break I've had for years. Still, while I may have been quiet here I've been quite busy over at the new Interact Labs site. This new project officially launched on the 26th October and is starting to take off nicely.
Here's a summary of what has happened at Interact Labs over the past month. The Creative Manifesto group are now meeting at the space fortnightly and used it as a base for the construction of their lights for their Light the Night project. Leicester Hackspace is also meeting there fortnightly and is making moves towards setting up it's own space in the new year. We've also had Steve Mills making use of the 3D printer as part of his residency at Two Queens and Esther Rolinson visited to work on her installation for next year. The Digital Makers Group has had an event, Martin Rieser gave a great Computer Arts Society talk and various other meetings and visits have taken place.
The next activity will be the launch of the new St Georges iPhone and Android app on Friday 29th November. This is the result of a collaboration between Cuttlefish, Phoenix and Leicester University and will give users a new way of exploring Leicester's Cultural Quarter. We also have a talk by Antipodes artist Layla Curtis on the 10th December.
