UPA & BBC

Went to the UPA event yesterday at LBi, to see the what the BBC is up to. Of all presentations we heard, the most interesting was definitely the one by Nicky Smyth, head of Innovation and Research at BBC -- who I met at the VizThink event last month, with her lovely friend Sal.

I was fascinated by the approach they had to research -- despite the fact that her 15 minutes only allowed her to give us a taste of what they are doing. The Participate project seems to encompass a myriad of areas, from augmented reality to encouragement and perception of media. I will look at their delicious logs as soon as I get over this bit of work.
