This looks so good I booked myself on to it and should be as it's a subject I am really interested in but would never know about how to find out more about it - so this is a perfect opportunity. The digital designer’s playbook is taking place on 30th March 2012 @ 1.00pm and is FREE to attend and only a couple of hours long. 

So what is it then I hear you ask?

Based in Salford not Manchester the BBC's second largest production centre, BBC North aims to build stronger relationships with audiences across the UK. And so it should as we all got sick of London centric programmes and we looked forward to the move North. The centre is at Salford Quays (nice) and will house 2,300 staff and a number of BBC departments – including BBC Sport, BBC Children's and Radio 5 Live.

THIS EVENT HAS NOW BEEN CANCELLED

We finally see it - a year in the making but now Hack for Culture has a name it can't be sued over. It is set to set the world of arts data alight by bringing the glorious arts & cultural organisations of Liverpool together with Merseyside's Digital and Creative industries to explore and experiment with a wide variety of hidden cultural data sets.  

"A data set (or dataset) is a collection of data, usually presented in tabular form. Each column represents a particular variable. Each row corresponds to a given member of the data set in question. It lists values for each of the variables, such as height and weight of an object. Each value is known as a datum. The data set may comprise data for one or more members, corresponding to the number of rows." Wikipedia - so probably wrong.
