Today was our third and final day of workshops with the kids. We are shattered! We've still got a lot of work and a lot of processing to do. For now, here's some feedback from the families involved and a couple of images...

A couple of weeks back, I popped into the NTW office...I can't remember why but it might be to make good use of the flowing supply of tea and biscuits. 

While I was there Dev said I should go to a design workshop by Punchdrunk, and so a I did!

The distance between us became the fertile ground on which we based our week of research: we travelled together from Ireland to Wales by ferry.

I had another question st…
