Biography
I’m Martin Belam, a designer and journalist I’ve been working in digital product development, information architecture and user experience design for over a decade, for organisations like the Guardian, Sony, Vodafone and the BBC. In 2012 I founded the digital consultancy Emblem, and our clients include Trinity Mirror, Libération, Arts Council England and the Natural History Museum. I help organise This Is LDNIA, and the annual EuroIA conference. I’ve written and edited books for the Guardian about the Olympics, Doctor Who, Facebook and the “Battle for the Internet”, and also published ebooks rounding up my notes from events like Hacks/Hackers London and London IA. I regularly give talks, and run training sessions teaching blogging, user experience design and digital journalism.
