Event Website

Media and Graphics Inter-disciplinary Centre
Monday 21st November at 4pm.

Attendance is free but please RSVP in advance. RSVP to Lavana Lea (lavana@magic.ubc.ca).

The demo session will provide an update on a number of exciting new technologies under development at UBC including our work on Social Networks and behaviour change, Wide area sensing, Cloud Computing, novel musical instruments, Visual Analytics as well as a number of other media and graphics demos.

This year the focus is on local SMEs that have worked with MAGIC during the last 12 months and they will be on hand to explain the benefits of collaboration and the funding mechanisms. Afterwards a variety of lab projects will be demonstrating in an informal 'walk up and talk' setting.
