*CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS*
We are looking for people who are excited about the role of media and
technology in the urban environment, and want to share this excitement with
an interdisciplinary audience.
The Media Architecture Biennale (http://mab16.org) is a biannual event,
featuring workshops, a conference and an exhibition, that attracts
interaction designers, lighting designers, architects, artists, researchers
and industry practitioners.
The workshops at the Media Architecture Biennale are an interactive,
dynamic forum leading up to the conference and exhibition, with an
opportunity for exchanging ideas, forming communities, sharing knowledge,
inspirations, getting in touch, prototyping and networking.
The next Media Architecture Biennale will be held in Sydney, Australia,
04-06 June 2016. It will be presented in conjunction with Vivid Sydney (
