About Us

* PURVEYORS  OF FINE EXPERIENCES *

We like to create a bit of a splash; something that is remarkable, something that inspires excitement, intrigue and wonder in participants.  This could take the form of mass participation events, theatrical encounters, pervasive or street games – you name it, we’ve done it.

When you experience something incredible you want to tell your friends about it – the splash has a ripple effect as people hear about what happened. This is where technology and analytics come in – to understand and measure the impact – and to help it ripple even further.

Splash & Ripple is a unique and innovative experience maker – spanning real and digital worlds.

Rosie has been creating extraordinary experiences and award winning real world games for 4 years.  Her experience over the years has spanned both production and direction across a series of projects.  Audience numbers vary from a handful to thousands and have ranged from intimate interactive theatre based productions, games that use pervasive media to enagage the public to all out running away from infected zombies across shopping malls.

With a career based in festival production and funding development Rosie has a powerful skill set when it comes to initiating and realising projects.

Mark has been working with digital media since the mid 1990s – when he graduated from Bristol University with degrees in Computer Science (MSc) and Psychology (BSc). Since that time, the digital world has changed a lot and Mark has seen those changes first hand. Working pre-dominantly with design, marketing and advertising agencies in Bristol, London, and Brighton, Mark’s work has covered projects for high profile brands, through to work with start-ups and charity organisations (including – Royal Shakespeare Company, Endemol, Channel 4, BBC and ITV).

Mark is also director at Playlab - a company providing analytical insight and technical expertise for the interactive media, advertising, marketing, and design industries.

All this experience means Mark is well placed to harness the ripple effect – using agile project management, rapid prototyping, web analytics, performance measurement, and the latest technologies to augment our extraordinary experiences.
