Across Ireland to Limerick: Stepping Out of Time
Early last week I had a few days external examining the iMedia course at Limerick. A wonderful course I was impressed again at the Dawn 2010 show pieces produced by the students who come predominantly from arts or design backgrounds and many of whom have never touched code or soldering iron before starting the course.
As it was Bank Holiday weekend, flying would have meant spending 24 hours in an airport between flights and airport hotels in each direction, or alternatively driving south to an airport. It seemed more sensible and more fun to drive south through Ireland itself, and in the process satisfy a little my itinerant spirit.
I didn’t manage to write as I went along, but have retrospectively made a number of post-dated photo-blogs:
Roads of the Sea — Tiree to Larne
Into the West — Larne to Westport
Serendipity and Song — Westport to Doolin

Lette Moloney, one of the students on the iMedia course made a mashup image of Mikael Fernstrom and me:
