Every moment counts: inspiring meaning and connection through multimedia experiences
We live in faster and busier environments than any other point in humanity. Things that used to surprise and connect us get constantly overshadowed by ever tinier bits of stimulus. Is it possible to use design, multimedia and technology to create meaningful moments for people?
In his talk Miguel will share Cocolab’s approach to multimedia experience creation, showing how it is possible to inspire and connect people to their environment, community and culture through experience design.
We’ll cover key concepts and definitions using real world examples (from nightwalks in archeological sites to multimedia shows using world famous intellectual properties) that show the importance of this discipline and its relevance in the years to come.
