SUMMARY:The Woods - A mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game
DESCRIPTION:“The Woods” is a mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game that addresses the perils of social isolation by promoting connections between people and actively engaging them through play. Using  Augmented Reality (AR) and 4-channel audio spatialization panning\, players choreograph their movement in real-world space while interacting with birds\, clouds\, and other objects in virtual space. In pursuit of a shared goal\, players experience an immersive sonic narrative of rumbling storm clouds and disconnected voices that culminate in stories of hope and reconciliation. The design intent behind “The Woods” is to illuminate human connections to others and to celebrate this through collaborative play. \n4pm – 5pm – Experience The Woods (Demo)\nLocation: IDM (Interactive Digital Media) Research Lab\, Plangere Room 135\nRSVP Required for the demo session ONLY.\nFor more info or to RSVP\, contact Wobbe F.

SUMMARY:Roots of Rock ’n’ Roll\, Part II
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – Dec. 1\, Dec. 8 & Dec. 15 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nWhen the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame nominations occur every year\, the debate resumes: just what is rock? Instead of drawing from one genre\, rock ’n’ roll draws from several\, all combining to create a sumptuous gumbo that rapidly captured the world’s imagination. \nPart two of the Roots of Rock ’n’ Roll course – a three-session virtual course taught by Kit O’Toole – continues exploring the foundations of the genre\, this time exploring country\, folk\, and skiffle. How these art forms influenced both American and British artists will be studied in terms of instrumentation\, singing style\, and composition. In addition to multimedia presentations\, class discussion and activities will enable attendees to identify the essential elements of rock. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.
