Re: recommendations for interactive app cms companies.
This is a bit late to the conversation but an app I've created has just gone live on the two app stores. We created it with mytoursapp.com who have an online cms and take care of all the app submission side of things.
I've found it a fantastic affordable platform to use when the organistion has few in-house resources (our content was volunteer created and I'm a freelance consultant).
Our apps are at
Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mytoursapp.android.app918
Apple App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/catrine-walks---audio-tours-with-maps/id1119363480?mt=8
We haven't publicly launched them but feel free to take a look.

Hi Russell and Fran
Not digital, but your request for a maker reminded me of artist Amy Pennington’s wonderful Portrait Machine

Hi all,
We are working on an exciting photo booth project and we’re looking for a digital person and a physical ‘maker’ to collaborate with. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Project
The idea is to design and build an interactive photo booth for Wellcome Collection in order to create new experiences for our visitors. We are looking for someone to work on the digital side of things, as well as a maker to build the physical structure for this pilot project.
We’re looking to create a short, interactive experience using screen-based audio visual prompts inside the photo booth that will culminate in the visitor having their photo taken…with a twist.
Know anyone who might be suitable? Email us off-list with any contact details or feel free to forward this to anyone suitable. Or just send a declaration of interest to us at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> and we'll then send a full brief with more information.
Thank you so much for any recommendations or signposting you can offer!
Thanks a lot,
Russell Dornan and Fran Piddlesden
