'creative' surveys/focus groups/data collection Sep 7, 08, 2:39 p.m.

hey,
I'm looking for interesting examples of ways to collect and represent interview data (images/interview/text/writing) from a large group of people. e.g. 50-100

An example like - there was this workshop session where people wrote their ideas on sheets of paper that are then formed into origami shapes that where collected and made into a hanging sculpture for other people to read the comments off.

this is hard to explain.... can someone help?

i'm looking for a small laptop/net for when I'm travelling about with work. Only need it for connectivity, word processing, presentations and a small bit of photoshop image editing.

i'm considering the Asus EEE http://eeepc.asus.com/global/ or the DELL mini - http://www1.euro.dell.com/conten…

Is using anyone a decent small laptop/netbook that is cheapish?

Niamh Farrell of Ham Sandwich didn't know she was pregnant until she went into labour two weeks ago. She tells Sinead Gleeson a rock'n'roll tale to beat them all.

ALL bands have their crazy stories. From tales of mid-gig electrocution to naked hotel streaking, they are the kind of chronicles we expect - heck, demand - of musicians. Niamh Farrell of Irish band Ham Sandwich now has her own classic. Her "remember-the-time-I-went-to-hos… story takes some beating. Twenty-five-year-old Farrell became a mother on June 8th but had absolutely no idea she was pregnant until going to hospital complaining of cramps
