I am now ready to share my new website with you all. You can find it here. In addition to what it says on the website we will also be selling:
- LED products, eg jewellery items
- t-shirts and other merchandise
and in the longer term we will also be designing and hosting websites for other micro-business in the local area although this will most probably be under a different brand.
At the MediaShed I am currently writing a document entitled "MediaShed Micro-Businesses". This will describe how we intend to support small-scale local businesses from their initial idea through to "going to market". We will also brand such businsess with a logo that says something like "Member of the MediaShed Business Network".
I am also involved in the setting up of a bricks and mortar shop at the MediaShed to sell the products and services that the businesses produce. Over the past week we have been thoroughly decorating the MediaShed to reflect the new theming of the new website.
Please note that the new MediaShed website goes live tomorrow.

Some photos of the event will be hosted in a directory here. All in all a very good night; I can't wait to make some LED Throwies!

I went along to the Jellied Eel Shed for a workshop about growing your own media lab, all day on Saturday.
This is about recycling computers, installing free software and then using them for some artistic purpose.
To find out more go here or telephone 01702 463605 or 01702 713555 or email lab@techsys.co.uk
We're still working on setting it up, but it should be fantastic. We just need some old computers…The next meeting is after Christmas on 6 January at 7pm in the shed.
