Cultural Digital #001
Hi there
I'm taking a new approach to my much under-used newsletter. The idea is to post a bit more regularly with links to all the interesting stuff that I come across (or that I've written). Simple as that, but hopefully useful.
If it's of no interest to you then please unsubscribe. Otherwise, stick around for this kind of thing…
Links

Arts Council of Wales and Nesta have launched The Digital Innovation Fund for the Arts in Wales, following on from the Digital R&D Fund for the Arts in Wales
Action Painting Pro mixes painting and platform games
Audio: The Responsive Web Design podcast discussed building the Royal Albert Hall's website
Video: Disney animator draws in VR
Video: Diplo/Bieber/Skrillex talk about the making of a song. Interesting in lots of ways - not just the approach to tech in the song itself, but the video's use of visualisations and vertical video. Also read how the NYT put the feature together
Want to chat about this type of thing with other smart people? Head to culturaldigital.com and get involved.
