Cool Hunting
Tomorrow Unlimited presents the first annual Creators Series, a multidisciplinary conference that highlights emerging creative cultures and social change through discussion panels, musical events and a free art exhibition. The series will be held over successive weekends starting in New York and ending in Los Angeles.
Bringing together some Cool Hunting favorites, the Social Interfaces Panel of the series will investigate new platforms of creative interaction design. Including web-based artist and storyteller Jonathan Harris (below left), Martin Kaltenbrunner from the ReacTable team (above) and interactive artist Theo Watson (below right), the panel will discuss the ways humans interact with one another in the digital and physical worlds. The panel is at 1:00pm on Sunday, 10 June 2007 at The Altman Building in New York.
Cool Hunting has a pair of tickets for the Social Interfaces panel to giveaway.
