I’ve just come back from Team Coopers’ first transatlantic exhibition. I was the lucky one selected magnanimously by Tim to go out and take care of a small game made to drive booth activity at a medical congress in Vancouver, Canada.
“What’s all that mean?” I expect you’re crying at your screens in eager interest. Well [...]
What an interesting time I had last week at The Children’s Media Conference in beautiful sunny Sheffield.
The keynote speech by Henry Winkler blew me away. I had no idea about his struggles with dyslexia or being accepted by his parents. I didn’t know about his advocacy work for children and I certainly didn’t know that [...]
Hello,
I’m Simon, the other new developer.

It’s been a little too long since I blogged, but blimey it’s been busy!

Last Friday I attended We Love Technology which kicked of Sheffield’s lovebytes festival this year and I came away from it all giddy with techno joy. There was lots of talk about a convergence of ideas between the many different fields of design, craft, diy [...]

If you haven’t seen it already, you can play the game on the Robot / Lizard website. We have also released our Facebook app, the Beastie Builder which you can play with here.
