Extended Deadline - USM08 Call for Posters
I-sites and the Atrium at Federation Square, Melbourne
The deadline for submissions for our call for poster presentations has been extended to the 31. May 2008!
We are looking for researchers to present posters on the latest development in the interdisciplinary field of Urban Screens. Posters are ideal for presenting speculative, late-breaking results of ongoing research projects, drawing important conclusions from practical experiments, for giving an introduction to innovative art works or new practical design applications, reports on cutting edge technologies and content management systems under development.
To bridge the Conference and the Multimedia Exhibition posters will be displayed in an exhibition in the public Atrium precinct, next to the conference hall, viewable for all conference attendees and the general public. The conference audience will be gathering around the A1 posters during the poster session to engage with the author. Eight submissions will be additionally shown in an experimental presentation on the four outdoor I-sites around Federation Square. These are equiped with an integrated screen, which offer the possibility to present remotely via scheduled skype sessions, while the audience gathers in groups around them.
