HALFWAY TO THE FUTURE

The Smart Products Beacon is delighted to be supporting Halfway to the Future – a symposium at the Albert Hall Conference Centre in Nottingham on the 19th & 20th November, exploring the past, present and future of HCI and designed-based research and marking the 20th anniversary of the Mixed Reality Lab at the University of Nottingham.

The symposium will address a range of key themes with dedicated single-track panels, each anchored by prominent keynote speakers reflecting upon one of their influential works in light of subsequent developments and present concerns. This will be followed by presentations of current related research, short future-oriented provocations, and a panel discussion/Q&A. The symposium will also incorporate an exhibition of interactive works and a poster session.
