Événement
"Event Horizons"
What is the next iteration of live events? Can it be contained within 4 walls and confined to the bodies and minds of those who physically attend?
Is it simply people on stage talking down at people on chairs?
Is it a big-screen, graphic-laden, one-way projection of ideas?
... Or is it something else, something evolutionary?
Event Horizons is a first of its kind conference that will take place in the Grand Ballroom of Webster Hall, the landmark venue where stereo was discovered in 1954, where U2 played its first ever show in North America, and which has become a hub of the New York tech community. Event Horizons will have a unique, Mcluhanesque, "Event within an Event" format that will reflect its cutting edge subject matter. Scheduled during the heart of Internet Week on June 4, 2009 from noon until 4 pm, Event Horizons will unfold in the very same room where, later that night, thousands of tech revelers will arrive for the legendary Digg bash, which will include a live broadcast of Diggnation. Some of the issues to be explored include:
How can technology be used to enhance the user experience? What is the proper run of show?
How can advertisers leverage an audience to fully deliver a brand message? How can attendees interact with one another, with the host and with the rest of the world. How can the host maximize the impact of the event, before, while and after it takes place?
Whether a concert, conference, trade show, festival, mall, restaurant, business office or even a simple lobby, the experience that resonates is a combination of both physical and digital stimuli.
Host Box of Rain will explore the frontier of how video, mobile, SMS, RFID, social tools and web 2.0 technologies can be viscerally integrated into the experience of attending a live event. It is a primer on how to enable users to meaningfully interact within a space.
While the load in and set up for Digg occurs all around, attendees will enjoy lunch, experience musical and video entertainment and receive expert advice on how to maximize the value of technology within the confines of a live event.
Event Horizons is a must-attend for event coordinators and producers, interactive agencies, PR personnel, production designers, marketers, brand representatives, advertisers, mobile executives, software developers, hardware manufacturers and business owners involved in the creation of live events.
Speakers will include leaders in the areas of event creation, management and coordination, licensing and legal, mobile applications, social media, interactive video, green tech, digital advertising, content development, not-for-profit, and brand strategy.
Join us for the 21st-century spin on a meeting about a meeting ....
Held at the landmark Webster Hall, this event will be a meeting of minds concentrated on improving the live event experience.
