In an earlier post I talked about the Ask as a fundamental part of any project, and of the need to be aware of what Asks we make of collaborators, partners, possible funders and not least ourselves.

It’s WE, not ME
As some of you might know I started up my own company last year together with a former colleague of mine.

Location based and engaging – telling stories through your everyday world
I will hazard a guess that very few readers of this blog missed that Pokemon Go was a bit of a success last year. It was great fun. For a while, for me, but for far longer for other people. And if Pokemon Go showed one thing, it was that Augmented Reality could work extremely…Read more Location based and engaging – telling stories through your everyday world
