A quick reminder – I’m in Manchester for the next two days for FutureEverything. I’m speaking on Tuesday as part of a session called The New Shape of Things, along with Dan Williams and Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino. It should be a great panel – and, from the looks of the rest of the conference, a great two days.

If you want to get in touch, do say hello if you see me!

I’m going to be speaking at FutureEverything in Manchester. I’m talking on the second day – the 1st of April – of the conference proper, as part of a panel on The New Shape of Things with Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino and Dan Williams.

My angle is going to be along the lines of “What We Mean When We Say Thing“. Like it or not, the phrase “Internet of Things” has a degree of traction – but I’d like to explore what a Thing can be, and especially think about Things going beyond White Goods With Ethernet Sockets. It’s a logical through-line from some recent work, and there’s a chance I might have a new short demonstration. (A chance.)

It’ll be good to present this in the context of the other panelists, and I think the whole session should be great.

It looks like a great line-up for the whole event, and if you’re in Manchester at the end of March, do say hello.
