CreativeCoffee Club

We’re shaking things up a little with the CreativeCoffee Club London meetings in 2009. Rather than continue with the cosy, weekly free for all conversations of last year we’ll be doing less regular meet-ups, but will begin to have larger and more themed conversations.
Our first one is in conjunction with Amplified09 and the ICA. You [...]

For some time we’ve planned to hook CreativeCoffee Club up with a University in London, as well as wanting to get away fro the Height’s Bar at the St. Georges. The Heights Bar has a great view, and means you can regularly rub shoulders with BBC luminaries and producers, but the coffee is lousy and [...]

The group was slightly smaller than usual, perhaps it was to do with the rather miserable weather.. or more likely they were probably just busy (as the weather usually is pretty dreary!!)
Conversation was very relaxed, and it is usually, because mostly (if not always) no agendas or topics are pre-decided. So everyone’s free to talk [...]

I attended my first Creative Coffee Club on Wednesday after hearing about it through Toby. I’m already something of a fixture on Friday mornings at the Social Media Cafe so was interested to see how a different group was made up and where it was heading.
The first thing I noticed of course was that there [...]

Within the first hour the group had doubled to 12, and lots of different conversations going on. The topic of music popped up and the difficulty of marketing physical products when you can download music.
The popular social networking working tool twitter and twirl came up again today, and its simplistic interface design is good. Its [...]

CreativeCoffee Club - The people who come along are interesting, highly intelligent and genuinely nice and funny people. I sit absorbing as much information as I can of what everyone says, a bit of it goes over my head, some of it I feel I knew already but most is interesting new stuff I know [...]

A main topic of discussion formed around the up and coming Network of Networks. Toby gave an overview of what is happening and everyone talked about interesting ideas for locations etc. It shall chatting and conversational, informal in an “un-converence” style.
CreativeCoffee Club and other social networking groups will be joining together for a few separate [...]

As it was Toby’s Moores birthday on Sunday, to extend the celebrations he generously brought a big chocolate cake! Which went down very well, especially as it was gluten free so everyone could par-take. Ideas and topics discussed in a mass conversation between everyone but most of the time the group divided amongst themselves and [...]

You can see Tamsin Hatton’s photos of the latest London meeting on Flickr our Facebook group, as well as her summary post here.  It  was great fun talking creativity with the group.  Lloyd Davis told me he had an empty diary, and was wondering what to do with the day when he saw my tweet [...]

It was a really cold morning but arriving into London, and throughout the day, it really brightened up. The surrounding view once again from the Heights bar rather amazing.
Penny Jackson brought a sound recorder along and some of the conversations of today were recorded, it will be interesting to see what everyone said, but for [...]
