Hosted by Pervasive Media Studio
Jessica Warren (Hoffmann) on a recent collaboration with Bristol City Council that used arts, culture and immersive technology to do neighbourhood visioning in South Bristol - asking residents what a place should become, and using immersive tools to let them see it rather than read about it in a consultation document.
One of the Pervasive Media Studio's weekly Lunchtime Talks, 13:00 to 14:00 at the Watershed on the harbourside. Free, and part of Open Studio Friday, so you can take a hot desk in the Studio for the rest of the day either side of it.
immersive tech in a civic setting is usually pitched rather than reported on, and this is a practitioner saying what actually happened with a real council and real residents. Best for people working in creative tech, civic tech, planning or public-sector innovation.
