VOME took part in the festival of Social Science at Middlesbrough Railway Station, October 2011. The people of Middlesbrough participated in an artistic co-creation of a Visual and Sound Collage, using the topic of On-Line Privacy. Margareth the Clown and a small team of performers used themed character interactions helping to stimulate thought and creativity.
VOME has developed a series of digital interventions to test hypothesis about how people would engage with awareness technologies. The video above explains the approach and shares some of the outcomes of the research. Download the full Powerpoint presentation here: Digital provocations presentation
VOME asked 8 intrepid participants to spend a couple of days at GameCity designing and developing a game that promoted understanding of online privacy practices.
