1/5 We did some 'real world' testing of augmented reality #arjs this weekend in Norwich for #futureform. This is a project for @NNFest launching in May and funded by @ace_national - we have built the whole thing in 'open source' with help from a group of great people. No app! 
2/5 Creating the art, we used watercolour, yes, real paint, then digitised the art back in. We wanted to create an aesthetic that fits the medieval nature of the story written by Imogen Hermes Gowar. The life of Lady Eleanor Talbot who is buried in Norwich.
3/5 In field tests we needed to reduce the size of the assets even more, allowing for variations in cell bandwidth and types of phone. The #arjs code base however is great for quickly getting stuff running & owes much to the work of #jeromeetienne & @nicolocarp + others.
1/10 Here's my thread on running a 'blended' artist lab in #Coventry with @NewArtWestMids @Coventry2021 @newartgallery - did it work and what were the challenges? @CraigoAshley @roddy_hunter @CovBiennial @SusanJonesArts @MarcusRomer @robynwoolston @closeandremote - read thread_>
2/10 Logistics with #COVIDー19 & people being displaced was tricky. It meant more organisation & planning. So, we went for this 1|2|2. 3 Zoom days & 2 physical days. The presentations on day 1 went very well & the artists presented their work, guest talk by @MarcusRomer
3/10 Mtg in Coventry for real was amazing for all of us, for many their first adventure out. Some ppl had been impacted by Covid. We went in search of the River Sherbourne that lies beneath Cov. Outdoor talk by @ryanhughes2 @CovBiennial totally worked alongside watercolours...
