Good digital services.
Good digital services always put people at the centre.
Development
From the idea through the prototype to the platform: web development, prototyping, UX design and user testing.
Consulting
Digital projects in their ethical, social and political context: transformation, openness, AI, participation.
Education
Workshops for skills that can be taught, and rooms for exploring together.
Consulting, prototype, platform: not a relay race between providers.
The prototype is the hinge. It answers in days what concept papers leave open for months, and it is built on by the same person who designed it.
Technology is never neutral.
What a system does is a decision about how people treat one another. So I never look at technology in isolation, but in its ethical, social and political context.
- Openness Open data, open standards, open administration.
- Open source Software that belongs to nobody and serves everyone.
- Digital ethics The moral questions technology raises.
- Participation Those affected should have a say.
Are we a good fit?
The codex says which projects I am right for and which I am not. It says so before the first conversation, not after it.
To the codex →What these words mean.
- Open Data Holdings a public body publishes so that anyone may use and pass them on freely.
- Open Government Decisions that can be followed from the outside, and ways of taking part in them.
- Open Source Software Software whose source can be read, checked and changed by anyone.
- Digital ethics Asking what technology does to people before it is built, not afterwards.
- Digital sustainability Systems that still run in ten years and use little electricity while they do.
- Civic Tech Applications volunteers build for the common good, in their own time.
Rooms for trying things out, not for listening.
Open-ended exploration with your people, on your material: data travel, IoT ideas, the AI exploration space.
