I have not blogged for a while as I have been in Australia working with Genevieve Bell (Intel) on a research project about Australian urban life. We have been on the road interviewing families in their homes for 5 weeks now, from Sydney to Newcastle to Merriwa to Canberra to Wagga Wagga to Melbourne and across to Adelaide where I am now. The project is looking at ways in which people use and don’t use technology in their everyday lives. The whole experience has been very interesting. We have driven about 3000kms around and between these cities, which has given us a real experience of everyday Australian life and the importance of the car.
