The time of the year comes again — the MindTrek conference is about to boom in next Tuesday. This years amazing program including Steve Wozniak, Alan McKay, Niilo Alfthan and other great speakers will be complimented by student-created OFF program once again. We have a fresh new student group with fresh new ideas for this year.
We are continuing the tradition and quality of last years' amazing relaxing lounge, but we also want to build on top of it and introduce more happenings during the event and the breaks in between. We set ourselves on a mission to extend MindTrek's theme and bring interesting free program for visitors and anyone passing by.
This year our team consist of 7 talented student producers from 2012 edition of TAMK International Media Programme; Carolin Büttner, Iina Kuula, Joanne Wong, Liz Kinner, Noora Tolvanen, Sindy Giraldo, Yulia Pak and Joe Pacal.
The Finlayson Siperia square will be transformed into a central area for interesting digital surprises, art and culture related exhibitions, buzzing interactivity, discounted coffee, a real life computer game experience, Nokia close-up hands on and many other interesting happenings, that are top secret treasures.
But that's not all. Along with that our program will truly come alive by pop up performances and happenings. We are on the go!
Are you curious to see more? Come and enjoy our OFF program during MindTrek on October 1-2. We are thrilled to see you there!
