DMAF Special DiMeNar Event at Planet Digital! PDF Print E-mail

Performance and technology converge at the Digital Media Alliance Florida (DMAF) April Event – showcasing new technologies that are changing the future of Central Florida. On April 30th, come out to Planet Digital for a night of innovation, discovery, networking, and fun!

In the past, technology and performing arts have been seen as opposites. Increasingly today we are seeing applications and art that bridge the divide between technology and the performing arts. Live performance brings humanity to technology, while technology creates performance spaces that could never exist in the traditional theater. From interactive theme park shows, to virtual worlds and classroom simulations – technology and performance work hand in hand to make richer and more compelling human interactions.

DiMeNar Powered by: Sidecoach
Come early to reserve a ticket for “Sidecoach.” Throughout the night, you will have the opportunity to experience a new form of live simulation training. “Sidecoach” is part game show and part simulation – participate by voting from the audience, or step inside the simulation and become the star of an interactive experience. Demonstration Sponsored by Padgett Communications (For more information, see the Sidecoach Website )
