My principal interest in mobile is to push the boundaries of innovation to create uniquely mobile experiences. I hope my blogs excite and challenge developers to think 'outside the box'.

Futuresonic Mobile Experiences Workshop
coultonp | 16 April, 2008 11:41
) Mobile Experiences workshop I am running from 12pm on the 30th of April in Contact Theatre Space 3 in Manchester as part of kick off events for Futuresonic 2008 which is a Urban Festival of Art, Music & Ideas running between the 1-5 May in Manchester in the UK . The workshop is being supported by Forum Nokia (thanks again) and its aim is to facilitate cooperation between artists, designers, and developers in the mobile space
This year we intend to focus on the three technology areas currently growing in significance in the mobile phone space that of Location Based Services, RFID and Near Field Communications, and Mobile Widgets (WRT and WidSets) and each will be presented by a Forum Nokia Champion. The workshop is intended to be accessible and open to a variety of interest and in particular we want to provide an opportunity for designers to find out what these technologies have to offer and what the limitations, what support are and development environments exist, where they can get access to examples. We will also provide an opportunity to mix and discuss design ideas with developers and experts experienced in these areas together with providing some hands on practical experience of the technology.
To finish the event we are planning a group participation of a mobile experience but i will post more information as soon as the details are finalised but it should be very cool
.
Manchester is a great city with a unique atmosphere and culture and this Festival is a great experience so if you have never visited the city this may be all the excuse you need.
Please feel free to pass on this information to anyone you think will be interested.
