Event Description

Mobile Geeks of Vancouver (#MGoVan) is now a go!

Love your Mobile and Mobile Tech? Live in Vancouver? Join us for chat, discussions and general merriment. We will have regular meets and swap ideas/thoughts/applications etc…

This month we’ll be joined by Samir Agarwal, Head of Nokia’s European Maemo Operations, Mountain View, so there’ll be plenty of chance to chat Maemo/MeeGo. It’ll be a chance to meet like-minded people, chat and maybe find out a thing or two that you didn’t know before.”

For the uninitiated among you, the #MGoVan does exactly what it says on the tin. Whether you work in the industry or not, if you like to get geeky when it comes to all things mobile then MGoV is the place for you. Learn, meet, drink.

So, 7pm at Storyeum on W. Cordova (opposite the Woodwards building). Sign up, bring your Mobile Tech-loving friends. Click n the FB event to RSVP.

Revival of weekly Fearless City meetings, Wednesdays at W2 Culture + Media House

Orientation Meeting: Wednesdays 1-3 PM W2 Perel Gallery 112 West Hastings @Abbott

Fearless DTES residents are invited!

http://ow.ly/QM7n

W2’s Fearless City Mobile is recruiting DTES residents and artists for an exciting mobile video streaming showcase of ideas and views from our neighbourhood. VJs (video jockeys) will remix live videos created by participants and project a mashup on giant screens from the large window facade of the new W2 Cafe site inside the Woodward’s Atrium. W2 is slowly opening in stages in the heart of the Woodward’s project with the Cafe opening first.

Fearless City Mobile has a successful track record of empowering local residents with access to technology, and helped launch other projects in the neighbourhood like AHA Media. Funding for this February program is from CODE Live (Cultural Olympiad Digital Edition) and the City of Vancouver’s Bright Lights. For project background, check out these samples of previous test events: showing Fearless participants learning about mobile video and VJing are Vision Division; with mobile streaming from DTES locations and our shopping cart screen; mixing it up with VJs and DJs at Tech Forms; in Ottawa for BC Scene with VJs remixing streaming connections from seven galleries and layered social media together.

Orientation Meeting: Wednesdays 1-3 PM W2 Perel Gallery 112 West Hastings @Abbott. Weekly Fearless City Mobile training and peer support sessions (lunch included) every Wednesday. We will be providing an honorarium for Fearless City Mobile Project participants and we especially encourage our original 2008 Fearless City crew to come and work and create again.
