the future of creativity...?

I am so reading this.

Blurb: The book is essential reading for professionals in media, technology, and communication industries, and a valuable reference for academics in related fields. We recommend it as a serious resource for anyone thinking playfully about the future of art and social softwares.

Wow! I can see Hugh so reading this and then re-reading this - looks fascinating. The book appears to touch on some areas of discussions I has yesterday on Chris Lawyers blog (got a bit heated so I finished it offblog - we're still friends..I hope)

which followed up another long chat with Karl Long from experiencecurve.com whose blog on second life and this much misunderstood area of interactivity labeled 'co-creation'

I love all this stuff and so before we get our blog going we put up our own little page of microbrand (hughspeak) companies that engage in a nice way on our page

There's something there for everybody I think
