Life Imitating Art? The Influence of Art and Film on Holographic Technology

Holographic technology has been a fixture in TV and film since films like “Star Trek” or “Back to the Future,” but now that it’s become a reality, how closely has life imitated art? Has modern technology caught up with its portrayal on-screen?

Join the Chicago HoloLens Meetup for an exploration of the past, present, and future of holographic technology’s role in pop-culture moderated by Jason Edgecombe, Healy Crews, and Charlie Athanas.

In this interactive open discussion, you will...
-Learn how the TV and film has portrayed and predicted uses for mixed reality
-Explore how the technology’s current capabilities are and how closely they resemble on-screen depictions
-Have a chance to network with other Mixed Reality enthusiasts
