In conjunction with Culture Hack Day which is taking place in London over January, we want ideas to improve how we consume culture in Birmingham and the wider Midlands, or problems: gaps in our digital grid, that can be filled with the right data or the right amount of brainpower

10 to 12 December 2010 at Aquila TV’s offices. Sign up on the Birmingham Hackitude site.

They’re after coders, developers, designers, people with ideas (especially people from an artistic/cultural background), sponsors (cheaper than you think – get in touch with them) and anyone else who wants to get involved.

Sounds great. I’ll be there.

Digital Playground was created in an attempt to network the digital creative industries within Birmingham

The next meet-up is on Friday 25 June at the Spotted Dog in Digbeth. Joining the Meetup group and RSVP-ing would be handy.

There should be a fair few people down there. As well as this, the Spotted Dog will be hosting Digbeth is Good’s 2nd birthday and the folks at Aquila TV are relocating their regular All Bar One drinks for the evening.

Of course, it might be popular for another reason. A meet-up for Digital Playground? Um, did anyone try googling that?

Those who are well tuned in to this sort of thing will know that a similar thing ran at Fazeley Studios a few months back (I even spoke at it). It seemed to go well and is now back by dope demand. It’s free but I’m not sure whether there are places left, so be quick.

Speakers include Andy Hartwell (Substrakt), Helga Henry (Fierce Earth), Eryka Isaak, Julia Higginbottom (Aquila TV) and Alexa Torlo (BCU).

There’s a little more besides so head for the website and the Facebook event for details.
