Through a structure of interrelated sessions, \u2717Communicate proposes to take participants on a journey of conversations  that thread together an emerging community, founded on a culture of experimentation, innovation and reflective  evaluation. <br\/>\r\nThis symposium discussion is a prelude to a major International Media Architecture Conference on Digital Placemaking  and Smart Cities being organised by the Media Architecture Institute and UTV for Vivid 2016 to be hosted at The  Concourse in Chatswood. www.mab16.mediaarchitecture.org <br\/>\r\n <br\/>\r\nSYMPOSIUM FORMAT  <br\/>\r\nThe symposium format includes an opening keynote and morning session before breaking for a networking lunch. There  are two shorter afternoon sessions followed by a panel discussion. Following the closing session a VIP networking  evening event will be held in the UNSW Art &#038; Design courtyard and will include a live VJ performance from our  international VJ artist, Christine Coulange, brought to you by Videospread, France.  \u2717Communicate will also launch the prototype of \u2018Discussions in Space (DiS)\u2019, a platform that has been developed for  public screens by UTV in collaboration with University of Sydney, UNSW and QUT and funded by The Henry Halloran  Trust. The platform offers an interactive, fast-paced social media channel for local governments, organisations or  institutions to engage with local residents or visitors in public spaces.  \u2717Communicate will close with a range of video art works through until 9pm, including a program by French Curator  C\u00e9line Jouenne from Videospread, student works curated by UNSW TV and a video artwork by Glen Henderson titled  \u201cThe Lightness Matrix 3 Grande Search\u201d.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UTV and UNSW Art &#038; Design proudly present the \u2717Communicate (Cross Communicate) Symposium and Exhibition as part of the Vivid Ideas program 2015.
