The Manchester MethodWhy Manchester? What is unique about this city?
BraggadocioBraggadocio is a character in Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene, famous for his boastfulness and swagger.
BlaggadocioBlaggadocio is a character on the streets of Manchester who innovates (creates favourable conditions in the world around them) through quick wit, chicanery and play.
I blag, you blag, he/she blagsBlag is one of the most distinctive words in the english language (in England).
A blagger is a trickster, a thief, but the word is often used in a positive way.
Blaggers and HackersA blagger is similar to a hacker.
Blaggadocio = a hacker with a mancunian attitude.
Hack the City - BlaggadocioThe city is made up of code that is reworked and rewritten. Blaggers and hackers do not accept the world as they find it. They edit, debug and back fix to create favourable conditions in the world around them.
My QuestionSo Manchester, are you a blagger or just a bragger?

One billion eyes"A populace so knowing and capable that all problems get noticed and addressed, quickly, by a billion eyes."- David Brin
BiotaggingDiscovering and creating a folksonomy of the city's urban wildlife. People moved through a range of microclimates observing and identifying the plants, animals and fungi they find along the route. A 'Rover' vehicle was used to film and collect data. Participants were able to think up their own ways to classify and record the wildlife they discovered.
