Posted August 3, 20168 yr Hello! I'm Julian and I'm researching LEGO, the online brand community, innovation and AR for my MA dissertation at the University of Bournemouth! I'd just like to interview anyone who would be willing to give their perspective on these topics! :) I could send over a Participant Information sheet and a Consent form to your personal email for your discretion to examine/agree to. Would anyone be kind enough to help me? :) Julian
August 3, 20168 yr Author I'll be asking some questions (over PM) about AR, innovation and LEGO online brand communities and it should only take an hour - although you have to read the Participant Information Sheet first and the Consent form!
August 3, 20168 yr Author I find LEGO incredibly interesting, the advent of PokemonGO has really informed my research whether LEGO can do something with AR, much like the old LEGO Fusions!
August 3, 20168 yr I remember LEGO fusions! they were great hah, although I only had one or two sets because they were expensive!
August 3, 20168 yr Author I never had one haha, I have an old box at home and it's filled with assorted LEGO parts, I've not had much chance to play with them because I've been at uni!
August 3, 20168 yr I see! Is that just LEGO you've collected over the years or that you've amassed in one great lump? :P
August 3, 20168 yr Author Over the years, but both I guess, my parents and their friends handed a lot of their LEGO down to me, it's not got anything worth much in though, it's just a really assorted pile!
August 3, 20168 yr My friend's box is kind of like that, it's really mixed, and has no themes whatsoever in!
August 3, 20168 yr Author Fair enough haha, you're nearly at 10, when you reach 10 can you send me your email so I can send you the consent form and participant information form? :) It'll be strictly between us!
August 3, 20168 yr What does the acronym "AR" mean? The more you learn about LEGO culture, the more you appreciate how large and diverse it is. If you can find a local LEGO User's Group (LUG) and go to a few meetings it can give you some interesting perspectives. Good luck.

This is the official map with all the LUGs on it- https://lan.lego.com/lugs I believe this is the biggest LUG in the UK- http://www.brickish.org Edited August 3, 20168 yr by BrickCurve
