Semantic Technology Conference Today
So I went down to the semantic Web conference today in London.
As usual, I felt like an interloper at a private members party, not knowing my sparkle from my Java. I was looking for a man called Martin Hepp an Austrian and creator of the Good Relations ontology for annotating product inventories whom I interviewed for my piece on the Semantic Web in Research magazine in 2010. Turned out he flew...
100% Design @ Earl's Court
So I went to 100% design exhibition Saturday afternoon at Earls Court Exhibition Centre.

Marcel Wanders @ V&A
Just came back from the V&A which I have to say is an inspiring place. The Power of Making exhibition was pretty inspirational and makes me want to beat metal or plane wood or turn something on a lathe… Or something. I used to know a famous curator there. She gave me a book on Art Deco. But I digress. I went today to the Marcel Wanders breakfast talk as part of Design Week. I was originally...
