Open Sessions
Thu 14 July 1400hrs
Following a series of trials, I Can Read You has developed into a full-scale physical and virtual game using the latest mobile phone technologies. Players search for missing pieces located within the environment to solve a code. The project explores the relationship that we have to portable technologies and the ways that physical and virtual technologies enhance our everyday experience. Places are limited, if you would like to participate in the game please contact Gill Haworth at Watershed - email gill@watershed.co.uk / tel 0117 927 6444.

Thu 9 June 2005 Millennium Square
Since the initial testing, the project developed into a physical and virtual game in which two teams searched for missing pieces located within the environment to solve a code. It was trialed in Millennium Square outside At-Bristol with Watershed and HP staff. It will be tryed out again in June as part of a conference at Watershed about braodband technologies, the game is then set for the public sessions in mid-July.
Work in progress - initial public testing
Wed 4 May - Fri 6 May 2005 Café/Bar Link
Simon trialed the initial phase of the project in Watershed's Café/Bar link space. He arranged various drop-in sessions and people were invited to come and try out test versions and give feedback. Simon has taken on board the interactions and comments from users to develop a second version of the project due to be trialed soon. Documentation of this development will be posted in the Online Journal section of this site
