D. Keith Robinson is about to embark on a really cool project. Essentially he is going to create a website for a fictional band. The cool part is that he is going to prove that a band site can be cool while at the same time useable and he is going to completely document the process from start to end.  As we create all these technologies it’s really interesting to see how people integrate them with the commercial realm. You have to believe that in five or 10 years every band in the world will have a website of some kind in question is: how do we get there from here? Projects like this attempt to answer that exact question. I’ll be watching!
Win an iPod!
I thought that the title of this post just might have caught your attention! Last week, I posted that the students in my Digital Media Technologies program are holding their Graduate Show in Victoria, British Columbia on May 1st. One of the door prizes will be a 15GB Apple iPod. So if you happen to be a web developer or graphic designer who lives in British Columbia or the Pacific Northwest, I would like to invite you to attend Surfacing 2004.
This event is presented by the graduating students of Malaspina University-College’s Digital Media Technology and Graphic Design programs.
The exhibition is on Saturday, May 1, 2004, from 9:00am – 4:00pm, in the Balmoral room at the Empress Hotel in Victoria. Students will showcase their work in animation, design, illustration, typography, video and web. Industry professionals, potential employers and the general public are all welcome to come down and see the innovate work done by students in these two highly successful programs.
