Sample quotations:

• I suppose twenty years ago I signed my first record deal and back in those days you make music and that was it. Don’t even think about the video or doing the art work.
• It took me a long time to shake those ideas and step out and collaborate with people. And then i discovered all these hackers and makers involved in that stuff
• Over the last seven years I’ve been developing a set of technology called the mi mu gloves to help me augment those acoustic sounds, to bring them to live physically.
• It gets me very very excited about the next generation. They are not going to be stuck behind a laptop.
• Imogen if you and your team want to come around the Goddard space centre give us a shout.
• She invited me to the MIT media lab
• I saw many bits of tech but this is the one that really resonated with me
• ON VR: This is the reality of how kids will be learning in the future
