Thanks Helen and Michael - and most of all to Ruth, Marc and team! Very excited about this project debuting at Furtherfield, it's been a very long time in the making.
Helen, from what I've heard the event on the 6th of Aug will be streamed! Looking forward to hopefully meeting a lot of you (netbehaviourists) over the summer in London.
