Gastvortrag Alex Beim

31. Mai 2011, 14.30 bis 15.30 Uhr Interface Cultures, Kollegiumgasse 2, 4020 Linz

Alex Beim hält einen Gastvortrag zum Thema  "Getting back our sense of wonder".

“The presentation goes through some of my experience creating large interactive installations for Art and commercial use.
I share my point of view on technology today, where the last 20 years has gotten us to, and how to use that in our advantage to connect with people in a more emotional way.
My goal is to bring everything I have into the real world.  I leverage what I’ve learned from designing for the virtual universe, and use it in all three dimensions, all to snap people out of their everyday haze and make them feel something – from deep curiosity to utter amazement.”
