...inspired by some great purpose #undoccamp

This quote is in my head it sums up so much of my experience at #undoccamp and features in one of my pieces of art in Moone

Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and your discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be." Patanjali

I travelled to London on Friday to attend and participate in Digital Start Up Camp called Digital Undoc http://digitalundoc.com/ A one and a half-day event to come up with ideas to get support and information to children and young people with irregular immigration status in the UK. We looked at how technology can solve various issues for undocumented migrants in the UK.

It was one of the most inspiring, well organised events I think I have every been to. Well done to Onboard media who delivered the project for the two commissioners of the creative enquiry Paul Hamlyn Foundation and Unbound Philanthropy.

I worked in a team on the topic of ARRIVALS and I will blog more about that but for now - it was brilliant, amazing people, fantastic set up.

As a group we got a runners up award so exciting next steps to follow...
