a modest proposal · 2009-09-02 19:58

In a moment of extraordinary forward planning, I corralled some of the usual suspects and proposed a panel for SXSW in March next year.

In 50 words:
“The Internet is situated in the real world, and interesting experiences have to blend physical and digital. Mixing new technology – Arduinos, GPS, RFID, QRcodes – and old (web, paper), we present examples of the recently possible future, and the lessons we’ve learnt. And we’ll make something along the way.”

It’s a post-digital supergroup of Aaron Straup Cope (Flickr), Michal Migurski (Stamen), Ben Terrett/Russell Davies (RIG), James Bridle (Bookkake). And myself, with my new gig.

Think the Travelling Wilburys printing newspapers. Or ELP with Arduinos.

Anyway. SXSW has a slightly bonkers voting system to help program the schedule – voting ends on Friday, And it would be superawesome if you register, go here for the panel information, and vote. Thank you.
