Last week I visited London, Manchester and Birmingham with a delegation of the most promising Dutch Creative Companies. During this tour we visited all kinds of events like the entrepreneur conference in the Milky Building in Tech City (Shoreditch) on Monday, the BBC studios, a match making lunch, a meet and great with our prime minister - Mark Rutte and a high tea in the town hall of Manchester. The third day we went to Launch - a game event in Birmingham and we visited RARE Entertainment - one of the key developers for Xbox Kinect. They created the best selling Sports series. I went back to London on Thursday to have a fabulous day with my good girlfriend Mitra and she took me to all kinds of museums (VNA & Science Museum) and a fantastic authentic Iranian restaurant near Paddington and Hyde Park (hidden park as we call it).
This is just a small video of Mitra interacting with a video wall that uses the Camera Interaction Technology. At first we didn't understand what it was about until the balls started to copy the shape of her movement... Well done by the artist!
Below some pictures of the other stuff we visited during the tour in the UK and my moment with our prime minister! I handed over the Dutch version of the book (Laat met je merk spelen). Be sure to download your personal copy of 'A Brand New Playground' at www.brandnewplayground.com (it's in English of course ;-)
Hope you enjoy!
