Conference Location: Vancouver, BC, Canada
Deadline: September 30, 2004
Museums and the Web addresses the social, design, technological, economic, organizational and cultural issues of culture and heritage on-line. Taking an international perspective, senior speakers with extensive experience in Web development review and analyse the issues and impacts of networked cultural and natural heritage, and look ahead to the transformation of communities and organizations.
MW2005 features plenary sessions, parallel sessions, museum project demonstrations, commercial exhibits, mini-workshops, a usability lab, a design 'Crit Room' and the Best of the Web awards. Prior to the conference, there will be full-day and half-day pre-conference workshops and a day of pre-conference tours.
Social events, including receptions each evening, a Birds-of-a-Feather breakfast and plenty of refreshment breaks in the program, provide hours of discovery and debate among hundreds of colleagues from around the world.
