A digital magpie, interested in applications of technology (especially games) to learning and public engagement with culture and science. Until November 2012 I was the Multimedia Producer at the Wellcome Trust, but I’m now a freelance digital producer, working part-time at the Tate on various mobile projects. I am a big fan of evaluating stuff and sharing it. I help run the London Educational Games Meetup group (LEGup) which you should join if you make, use or are interested in educational games of any kind. Co-founded ME:CA, an initiative to help cultural organisations create great mobile experiences. Also a documentary short filmmaker.
If you’re so inclined, you can follow me on twitter, am @marthasadie.
Have a play of some of the games I’ve worked on here, (to grow your own neuron), here, (to test how good your memory/ability to distinguish different types of forceps is), here (if you want to try your hand at opium smuggling in the Pearl Delta during the 1830s) and here (if you’ve always fancied joining the team from Spooks).
Download Magic in Modern London here, a geo-located treasure hunt for iOS set in Edwardian London that I produced for Wellcome Collection.
Read our High Tea game evaluation and contribute to the Museum Games wiki.
Most of my videos from the last few years have ended up here on the Wellcome Collection YouTube channel, but some also here on the Wellcome Trust one.
