The artists of the 2010 New Frontier point the way towards an intriguing future, where cinema migrates off the screen and incorporates itself into the everyday world. Pushing beyond the boundaries of “site-specific,” pioneering artists are using new media technology to imagine seamless interactions between mundane reality and heightened sensory experiences. Tour the galleries of the New Frontier, and then join the artists for a conversation on the emerging role of cinema in the physical realm. Moderated by Ruby Lerner, executive director of Creative Capital. Panelists: New Frontier on Main artists/filmmakers Eric Gradman, Matthew Moore, Tracey Snelling, Michael Joaquin Grey, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

More than a century after its invention, the theatrical cinema experience is due for an aesthetic overhaul. Through innovative design, architecture, and technology, the twenty-first-century theatre space will look and feel very different. Beyond IMAX and 3-D, we prepare for waves of immersive design, real interactivity, alternative content, and flexible niche programming. But while the studio blockbuster may be safe, is there a role for independents in this futuristic world? Moderated by David Taylor, head of performing arts for Arup Acoustics and 5D Conference founder and member. Panelists: Oren Jacob (chief technical officer, Pixar Animation Studios); Raj Patel (principal consultant, Arup Acoustics); Howard Postley (chief technical officer, 3ality Digital); and John Fithian (president, National Association of Theatre Owners).
