ICHIM '95 / MCN '95
The Third International Conference on Hypermedia & Interactivity in Museums The Annual Conference of the Museum Computer Network
October 9-13, 1995 Hotel del Coronado Coronado Island San Diego, California USA
Hypermedia & Interactivity in Museums
ICHIM '95, the third international conference devoted entirely to the exploration of hypermedia and interactivity in museums, will convene in conjunction with MCN '95, the Annual Conference of the Museum Computer Network, the U.S. based association dedicated to the use of computer technology to achieve the cultural aims of museums.
The focus of ICHIM '95 / MCN '95 is on museums. Technology, administrative, legal and economic issues, design concerns, research and commercial implications will all be discussed from the perspective of museum applications and the diverse audiences for which they are created.
Anyone concerned with hypermedia and interactive products in public, mixed audience settings such as museums-- museum educators, exhibit designers and information systems staff, commercial designers involved with museums, hypermedia researchers, software engineers, publishers, curators, archivists and librarians-- will find ICHIM '95 / MCN '95 a vital opportunity for learning and interaction.
The Program The conference combines the international perspective that typifies ICHIM with the strength of MCN's traditional focus on museum information systems. The five day program includes:
14 pre-conference seminars & workshops
a three day technical program featuring more than 90 speakers and panels, mini-workshops and poster sessions a two day commercial exhibit hall
a museum project demonstration hall
special interest group discussions
receptions and a conference banquet
Conference Proceedings Each registrant for the full conference will receive the published proceedings at the meeting in San Diego. The proceedings will allow you to read full papers prior to hearing presentations, and will serve as a resource long after the conference.
