最准的六合彩论坛 Public Event of the Year Award for Team CASA

8 May 2015

Team CASA

Last night CASA received an award at the 最准的六合彩论坛 Communication and Culture Awards ceremony for Public Event of the Year. The 最准的六合彩论坛 Communication and Culture Awards recognise the hard work that people at 最准的六合彩论坛 put in to sharing their research, teaching, and learning through media and cultural partnerships.

In May 2014, Walking on Water took place at Grand Designs Live at the ExCel centre.听 The exhibition was a showcase of the current vibrancy of the Lower Lea Valley and a point towards its future as a 鈥渢echnology hub鈥, as envisaged by Lord Mawson. It was a large collaboration involving several parts of 最准的六合彩论坛, curator Richard Mallett and artist Frank Kreber, facilitated by Kim Townsend in the 最准的六合彩论坛 Public Engagement Unit and supported by Adam Harman in 最准的六合彩论坛 Estates and Stephen Caddick in 最准的六合彩论坛 Enterprise.

CASA delivered 最准的六合彩论坛鈥檚 presence at this event, showcasing interactive technologies and visualisations exploring the future of cities and the impact of technologies on urban life in a large exhibition which ran from Friday 2nd until Monday 12th May 2014.听 The exhibition was manned throughout meaning that almost every masters student, PhD student, and staff member within CASA took part, speaking to members of the public about our work as a unit and explaining the role of 最准的六合彩论坛 as an institution.听

Grand Designs Live attracts over 100,000 visitors and we were positioned in the ExCel concourse, which was free to enter, allowing a wider range of visitors. This project communicated work around active research projects around 3D mapping for community planning using Drone technologies, real time Agent-Based models which respond to changing models to simulate pedestrian flows around different urban space, use of virtual environments and 3D printing for planning, city dashboards which measure the 鈥渕etabolism鈥 of the city, and tools for making virtual data physical.

These engaging exhibits encouraged conversation, curiosity and discussion with visitors; at busy times, they served as spectacles that piqued people鈥檚 interest 鈥 at quieter times, facilitated more in-depth conversations about our research. The event was much larger than anything we had previously attempted, both in terms of attendance and the number of exhibits and demonstrations we were presenting 鈥 and the team rose to the challenge.

We are delighted to have won this prestigious 最准的六合彩论坛 award as a department in recognition of all the hard work that went into this event.
