Researchers at Nottingham University would like to invite you to the fourth Memory Machine workshop, as part of a series of workshops that explore how new technologies can help us preserve memories that are important for us. You’re welcome regardless of whether or not you attended previous Memory Machine workshops. There are reports about those workshops, which we will circulate beforehand for information.

The next workshop will be led by media researcher Sarah Martindale. It will be interactive and creative and we welcome older adults, those caring for people with early onset dementia, historians and tech developers.

Participants will receive a £10 high street shopping voucher as a thank you; travel expenses to the venue will also be covered and the workshop includes lunch and refreshments. The workshop will take place at the University of Nottingham’s Jubilee Campus in the Institute of Mental Health on Thursday 22nd November from 12:00-16:00. It will revolve around media like radio, music, television, film, books and photographs; personal media collections; and how these things act as memory triggers. There will also be some examples of existing digital apps and experiences for people to try out.

Everyone is very welcome. The venue is wheelchair accessible and please email us to discuss any access requirements.
