What is Gather?
Gather is an online platform where you can meet and chat with others as if you're in the same room.
Imagine an 80's style video game world where you have your own character (called an avatar) that can talk and move around.
It's super easy – just click a link, pick a name, and you're in!
You can attend the conference, explore different spaces, and make new friends, all without needing to be a computer expert.
It's like a fun and friendly digital hangout for everyone!

After you registered:
A few days before the event, you will receive via email an invitation link to join the Gather.
On the day of the event:
Click on the invitation link. It will open a tab in your web browser. (Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari are recommended. If using a mobile device, it is recommend to use the Gather Mobile App instead.)
Enter Display Name. It can be your name or nickname to use during the event. The appearance of your avatar can be customized.
Allow Gather to use your camera and microphone. Turn them both on.
Use arrow keys to move your avatar in the virtual environment.
Artefacts (documents, games, videos, etc.) that you can interact with will glow as you get near them. Type the letter X to engage.
You will be allowed to see and talk to others as soon as they are close enough.
When you enter a private space, you will see and hear everyone in it.
Changing Your Video View
When talking to others in Gather, there are three video views you can toggle between to optimize your experience: Map View, Meeting View, or Full Screen View. Visit the application's site to learn about these options.
