Why Attend?
Sketching with Technology is a unique opportunity to connect with the next generation of designers and artists who are shaping the future of interactive media, design, and technology. This event is a chance to interact directly with emerging creative talent, strengthening the skills pipeline in creative tech and exploring new ideas and research in areas like interactive physical and digital experiences, sound, installation, and audio visual media.
This showcase presents exploratory projects by 2nd-year Interaction Design and 3rd-year New Media + Sound Arts students. These projects represent initial explorations in technology, focusing on conceptual innovation and hands-on experimentation rather than finalized solutions.
This event is a key initiative under the Technology Pathways for Creative Futures Program at the Shumka Centre for Creative Entrepreneurship. Technology Pathways is a collaboration with DigiBC and is funded by the Business + Higher Education Roundtable and with support from the Government of Canada.
