Mudlark Launch, Post Digital May 22, 2009

Mudlark are a boxfresh new cross platform production company, and we are launching our company in Birmingham with a day of talks from interesting ‘post-digital’ people.
As brands and organisations begin to develop and discover a new digital space inhabited by communities and conversations; how do we look beyond the now, to a world where plants are talking to bridges, and anyone can integrate a digital inventory system and see when the robot will pick, pack and send your book.

The invited speakers are all developing new practices, projects and ideas in this space.

Mudlark are developing a number of new projects, and games that work with these data sets, and would hope we create a space that allows others to develop new thinking.

“The future does feature some brand-new stuff that was technically impossible before, but, more importantly, the future has a different take on matters that are already here. There’s a change of emphasis. The future is like another culture, another country. We have to come to terms with the future’s language. As Bruce Sterling says we need to create more Spimes, and less Objects.”
- Dan Hill, The Street As Platform
