Matt Jones scenarios

Designer Matt Jones has a set of stories he's writing for the BBC about artifacts from 2013. They're very stimulating.

INCITE

I've been looking at the work of INCITE, the Incubator for Critical Inquity into Technology and Ethnography (what a great name!) at the University of Surrey. They've got a number of interesting projects, most notably one titled Urban Mobilities: Locating Consumption of Ubiquitous Content, which looks at "the relationship between mobility and experiences of place, with particular reference to the use of digital content."

They've also done projects on design and ethnography, and "mobile devices and the cultural worlds of young people" (a popular subject these days, as this bibliography attests).
