(Yet another) technology-revolution. Engaging users with engaging content

Forget the objects, tell the stories
Storytelling has been at the centre of human existence since we first crept out of the swamp and huddled round a campfire. Although many people working in museums have always known how important this is, it's taken a while for others to fully embrace how central stories are to producing engaging content. Mike will talk through five inspirational story-telling examples from the heritage sector and reflect on the challenges and lessons learned.
Katy Beale,Creative Director, Caper
Making Things Fast
Katy will speak about how rapid prototyping is changing the digital landscape of arts, culture and heritage. She'll talk about developing projects such as Culture Hack and Happenstance, their impact and what it took to get them off the ground.
