Monday will mark the 50th anniversary of the patent for a silicon integrated circuit, awarded to Robert Noyce, an electronics engineer who was later nicknamed “the mayor of Silicon Valley”.

Action Research, Play and Experience Design are closely aligned forms of co-operative/collaborative inquiry involving participatory methods. Each is concerned with investigating and designing experiences, immersive simulations, or even alternate realities.
