The continuing domination of day-time TV by Thrill

Art & Technology

The Thrill project has real legs when it comes to promotion of the lab. Last week I was being kicked out of my lab space so that I wouldn’t get in Central News’ shot of their reporter riding the bucking egg (apparently broadcast on the Friday evening news) and this week Blue Peter’s main feature on Wednesday was the Alton Towers Thrill event. The latter has the best footage I’ve seen of Thrill and I’ve embedded the iPlayer video (until it expires) below; you want to start watching at about the 9 minute mark and carry on until 17 minutes:


Other clips are available via YouTube. Brendan was also on Blue Peter on Tuesday introducing the ideas behind Thrill (first 8 minutes).
