The honeymoon is over! After spending a week getting to know each other, doing some cool workshops and experiencing the relaxed and creative MediaLab vibe, it is time to get busy. This week is all about setting up the team as a solid base for some extreme creativity. Led It Up will work together with Dropstuff and Sound & Vision to produce an interactive experience on a huge mobile screen @ an event or festival. Using mobile phones as intermediaries, we want our public to be able to interact with the remixed images we use from the gigantic (700.000 hrs of visuals and sounds!!) database provided by S&V. Needless to say our inspiration is flowing like madness.  Check out this cool video by MegaPhone Labs to get a feel for the possibilities we are faced with:

What’s next this week? Tomorrow (Thursday) we will be at the Wireless Stories conference in the Stadsschouwburg of Amsterdam. There we will learn more about the role of new media in public space. Later on you’ll find a post about our findings and our thoughts on how to implement what we’ve learned into our own project. On Friday we will meet up with S&V to get to know each other and start conceptualizing.

Keep you posted!
