2. Space - May 1

Schedule

10:00 - Welcome

10:05 - 12:00 Present Old New Media Tribute projects in break out rooms [important: present your project regardless of progress]

12:00 - 13:00 Kick off introduction into openFrameworks 

13:00 - 14:00 [optional] Q & A, Peter will be on call

21:00 - 22:00 [optional] For those interested, online talk by Zach Lieberman, openFrameworks founder (see below) 

As you can see we kick off with quick (say 3-5 minute max) presentations of the 'Pay tribute to old new media assignment' (the practical project). Important: present your project regardless of progress, and if you get into a time crunch, prioritize this part of Lab 1 over the other elements in Lab 1 (icon, (fast) rewind). Similar to how an audience would experience, show the experience and as background the explain the concept and your inspiration. So the focus is not necessarily on how you created it technically.

Live Room will remain open until at least 14:00 for those who want to start on Lab 2 / openFrameworks [optional]

For those interested, Zach Lieberman one of the openFrameworks founders will give a talk tonight:

Zach Lieberman (OF Founder), Design and Technology Cloud Salon. May 1, 21:00-22:00 CET (3-4pm ET).
