The growing relationship between networks and computer systems means the
way we live is increasingly determined by technology. The UKs ageing
population lives with the implications of these design decisions. The
Not Quite Yet asks how older people and society can engage with the
future design process of technology.  The Artists have been invited to
create new work in response to research that engages groups of older
people, exploring their relationship to technology and its development.
