conferences

Here are a few goals you need to have when attending a conference if you don’t want the experience to be a waste.

Most Conferences Are a Waste of Money…Unless You Do This

For a conference to make a difference, it has to have the right people, with the right message, delivered in the right way. Otherwise, you will waste your money.

Rhizome Announces a Loaded Lineup for Its Seven On Seven Conference

Each year, Rhizome takes over the New Museum for a stacked Saturday of seven panels in as many hours, each featuring one heavy hitter in tech and one heavy hitter in art. And then there's a big party on the roof, which is nice, but the real meat and potatoes here is the marathon of truly intriguing panels. The participants are usually picked with expert care and matched up with a likeminded luminary. The lineup for this year's event, which all goes down May 2, was announced today, and the spread is no less impressive than in the past—or, maybe, it's more loaded than usual.
