==================================================================== ======== IPCITY SUMMER SCHOOL 2009 - 22-25/09/2009 VIENNA ========= ==================================================================== IPCity Summer School 2009 September 22-25, 2009 in Vienna, Austria. The IPCity project invites international graduate students to join us for the 2009 summer school. Students will be given the opportunity to work alongside experts in the field of urban mixed realities. The summer school will bring together students from a range of backgrounds including: architecture, urban planning, computer games design and information technology with the aim of creating an atmosphere similar to those found in leading research labs. The Summer School 2009 will introduce students to the IPCity project, in particular the core theories, key concepts and underlying technologies. In workshop groups students will get hands-on experience on novel application areas including: urban life and social gathering, environmental awareness, urban renewal scenarios, mixed-reality gaming and community story-telling in urban environments. Together with workshop supervisors students will create their own content for existing mixed reality systems using provided building blocks, conduct tests and field trials, and on the last day present their groups' work to the other workshop participants! The Summer School 2009 is part of the IPCity Integrated Project on Interaction and Presence in Urban Environments which is an EU funded Sixth Framework programme (FP-2004-IST-4-27571). The aim of the IPCity project is to investigate analytical and technological approaches to presence in real life settings. This includes extending the presence by taking into account the participative and social constitution of presence as well as the multiplicity and distribution of events in time and space. The Application deadline for graduate (Msc., PhD.) students is August 1, 2009! Notification of acceptance will be made on August 15, 2009. The working language of the Summer School is English, 3 ECTS credits can be awarded. There are a limited number of travel grants available to help pay for some or all of the costs involved in attending the summer school!
