Media Lab Exhibition

Last night at the Lennox Contemporary Gallery was the CFC Media Lab exhibition of the prototypes created by the 2008 residents. Five groups with five projects that touch the themes of conversation and connection to community.

After two days of building walls, tables, and podiums, mounting projectors and screens and hiding miles of cables under grey and white gaffer tape, we finally got our projects up and ready to be presented to the VIP crowd that the CFC had invited.

It was a great event. We finally got to show the world our projects and engage in conversations about them. Press from the Space Channel, Toro magazine, CBC and elsewhere milled about interviewing the residents.

Of course there were the obligatory speeches, delightfully short and to the point, and appreciated by all. And we received official notification that we'd graduated and were now among the ranks of treasured alumni.

All in all it was a lovely evening. One that ended with an unexpected yet pleasant surprise.
