Mobile Tech for Arts Orgs

This month we'll be hearing from some people doing amazing things at the intersection of arts and mobile. We'll cover the spectrum of everything from interactive mobile design theory, to iPhone apps, to Twitter/SMS interactive initiatives, and more.

The list of presenters is as follows:

1. Koven Smith - Senior Analyst for Enterprise Content Management for the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Koven will be giving a brief talk based on his recent paper, "The Future of Mobile Interpretation."

2. Peter Nofelt - Co-founder of Perk Mobile, a New York based mobile consulting and development firm that focuses primarily on Blackberry, Android and iPhone development. Peter also organized last year's MobileCampNYC3 event hosted by Microsoft. He will be speaking about the options available for people/arts orgs/companies entering the mobile space.

3. Jeffrey Inscho - Media and Public Relations Coordinator at the Mattress Factory Art Museum
Jeffrey will be talking about the museum's MFSCREENtxt project and how they are using insight from this initiative in designing an iPhone app.

4. Untravel Media - Michael Epstein, founder and creative director of Untravel Media will be talking about documentary storytelling on mobile devices. Some of the concepts can be found in his recent paper “Moving Story.”

5. Sonali Sridhar - Sonali is an artist whose work explores wireless devices in urban spaces. She uses mobile technology and hardware to "create objects that carry a narrative in them." Some of her previous works have used GPS modules, Bluetooth, and mobile hacking techniques. You can read more about her work here: http://sonalisridhar....
