Thanks to everyone who submitted a proposal – we have had nearly twice as many as last year and I can confirm that there is nothing like a deadline to focus the mind: two thirds of proposals (my own and Matthew’s included) were submitted over the final weekend. We have assembled a panel to read and review them all and we will be in touch in due course.

Just to confirm that today is the last day for proposals. And yes, midnight is fine for all you night owls.

We have received a fascinating mix of proposals so far – clearly there are a great many ways in which people respond to, and interact with, text. Still two weeks to go if you would like to submit a proposal: the deadline is Sunday, 7th April.
