It took just a little more than a week, but THATCamp Museums NYC filled up sometime early this morning. It has been really great to see such an instantaneous level of interest manifest itself and as I have tweeted the range of interests, skills, and professions in the registered pool is really something to behold. Looks like it will be a wonderful weekend with lots of great conversations.
For those of you who missed registering in time, you can still get on the wait list here. As spots open up due to cancellations we will notify you if your registration has been accepted.
Keep tuned to this site for more info about workshops (almost finalized) and other details as we get closer to the conference and see you in May.
About Kimon Keramidas
As Assistant Professor and Director of the
Digital Media Lab at the
Bard Graduate Center, I am in charge of implementing digital media across the curriculum of my institution and in research projects and exhibitions. My research focuses on the study of media through the lenses of political economy and sociology of culture and the integration of interactive technology into pedagogy. I have taught courses in interface design, media and materiality, artifacts in the age of new media, digital information fluency, theatre design, and performance, and am curating an exhibition on interface design that will open at the BGC in spring of 2015. I am also Director of Digital Initiatives at the
Martin E. Segal Theatre Center, co-founder and member of the editorial collective of
The Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy, and co-founder and member of the steering committee of
NYCDH. When not teaching and working I play games on both fields (soccer) and screens (Xbox, etc.) and consume sundry televisual culture. Oh yeah, and I'm a mean baker.
