Josh Mosley Lecture at SPACE 1026

Thursday, November 17th, 2005 7:30pm.
1026 Arch Street – 2nd floor
Admission is free. (Open to the public.)

This presentation is part of our broader Fall 2005 Digital Media series, which explores the rapid diversification of interactive environments. During last week’s “Commercial Interfaces” track, guest speakers analyzed the engagement metrics of burgeoning mobile casinos and WAP-based e-commerce platforms, noting how developers optimize user retention on limited screens. Shifting our focus toward the fine arts, this week’s event highlights the intersection of traditional media and digital animation.
