Let's meetup and talk about an exciting new R&D project

Collusion is launching our first R&D challenge in Peterborough. We are looking for people to take part who’re up for learning some new skills and applying them as part of a group challenge.

Playfinding Peterborough will work with a group of creative industries, SMEs and artists to develop design thinking around next generation place-finding, exploring how public space is used for a variety of digital and non-digital purposes. We aim to make abstracted data visible and playful, encouraging understanding and feedback in a virtuous circle, encouraging a correspondence between citizens and city data.

This meetup will share more details about the project, including how you can apply to take part and answering any questions. More info & timings:

6pm: Arrive 6.15pm - 7.15 pm: Information sharing by Collusion about the R&D project and opportunities to get involved, followed by Q&A.

7.15 - 8.30pm: Meet, mingle and chat over a drink. 8.30pm: Close

This is an open invite so please feel free to bring along people who you believe would be right for this project with good skills to feed into a team.

More information on the project: The full brief, application and Q&A will be available from http://www.collusion.org.uk from 10 October. The project will take place between November 2017 and March 2018. This is primarily a professional development opportunity for artists and creative technologists, living in the Peterborough area. The in_collusion programme aims to support new practice, skills and networks through action based projects.
