MIT IAP '06
Visions
of the Future:
Screening and Making Concept Videos
During the first two sessions of this activity, we will show research and
concept videos that demonstrate visions for computing in the home and workplace
of the future. We will start with videos from 1980 and work our way to the
present day, studying both the themes and the styles of the video presentations.
Interested participants will be encouraged to
individually or in teams create
their own thought-provoking and entertaining videos that show compelling visions
of how technology can improve our lives. House_n: MIT Home of the Future staff and students will be available
as advisors. Participants may use storyboarding, video editing, still
photography, Photoshop hacking, and possibly even actual programming to create
interface mockups. Participants who complete videos will be encouraged to submit
them to the Seventh International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing's video
program, and the videos will be debuted at the end of IAP and
shown in subsequent years.
