John Kearon, Chief Juicer at BrainJuicer, explains how he is turning research on its head by shifting the focus from asking people to explain their own behaviour, to using peoples’ innate social abilities to comment on the behaviour of others.
A pioneer in the use of wisdom of crowds in research (since 2004), he also reveals the results of experiments in mass ethnography, mass anthropology and co-creation.

BrainJuicer’s Chief Juicer John Kearon is a regular on the conference circuit.
After noticing that many events tend to mainly attract agencies, he began to wonder whether there was a way to significantly increase the client quotient.
Well, a few weeks ago he ran his inaugural Oktoberfest, a one-day event in London and Amsterdam with a hand-picked line up of ‘innovators’ as speakers. Each intimate gathering attracted over 100 clients.
The events were free and in true bootstrap fashion John partnered with Unilever and Philips to host the events and provide refreshments.
John Griffithsblogged about the London event. And we were asked to film, the result being the 17m highlight clip below (from 6hrs worth of material) which we hope you enjoy.
