Thanks to the many people who joined us at the Digital Lounge yesterday. It was an excellent chance to catch up with friends, meet some great new people and hear about really interesting projects happening in the South West.

Thanks also to the Creative Industries KTN and Bristol Media, who helped the event go off with a bang.

Media Sandbox 2010 will open for applications later in the year. Please keep an eye on this website and sign up to our mailing list for the latest news.

This years’ theme is: Pervasive Experiences

We’re looking for ground-breaking ideas that dovetail mobile, wireless and sensory technologies with content and context, to create meaningful experiences.

Sandbox Surgeries will also begin this week. These drop-in sessions will be held at the Pervasive Media Studio and offer the opportunity to discuss any aspect of the scheme, such as the application process, potential ideas or partnerships. Surgeries will be held every thursday lunchtime until 28th January (with the exception of the 24th and 31st December). More info and registration details on our events page.

If you have a brilliant idea, this might be the perfect opportunity to pursue it…
