 +====== Information Deceases #2: Radiation ======
 +
 +Everything goes wireless nowadays. To what extent does all this wireless technology affect our wellbeing?
 +
 +The mobile phone is here to stay. A wireless network is already available in most households and a cordless phone is somewhat easier than with a wired one. And then all these communication masts in the neighborhood? All these wireless devices make use of radiation and that raises questions. To what extent does all this wireless technology affect our wellbeing? Radiation is a controversial topic. It is also called the modern asbestos. Time to take a good look about it.
 +
 +During this evening we will discuss radiation from different perspectives. Raymond Lescrauwaet (De Woonbioloog, Group4Wellness) is the specialist in the field of healthy living and working environments. He will tell us what radiation is and how it affects us. He will show us how to measure radiation in our environment ourselves. Imar de Vries of Utrecht University will explain to us why we communicate wirelessly with each other and why we take the possible risks for granted. The artists Ursula Lavrenčič and Auke Touwslagers speak about their artwork "Cellphone Disco". This artwork translates the GSM radiation to visible light, so we can see what the radiation does.

 +====== Urban Screen @SETUP ======
 +
 +Z25 builds a massive vertical videowall on the Neude at SETUP! The videowall is created in the building of the [[http://www.dutchgamegarden.nl|Dutch Game Garden]]. Max Italiaander of Studio Zesbaans organised the After Effects Kitchen event in which animators could create animations specifically for this video wall.  during the weekend. This joint effort resulted in a giant vertical videowall with custom animations. The videowall will be on display until the end of June at the Neude, Utrecht centre.

 +
 +====== Impakt Event: UNMA - Utrecht New Media Evening #4 Augmented Reality ======
 +
 +The Berlin Wall is gone but on the screen of your mobile phone you can see it right back on the spot where it used to be. The technology making this possible – Augmented Reality – is in the center of attention right now. Also in the Netherlands because one of the major players on the market is the Dutch company Layar.
 +
 +On this fourth UNMA we look at the future of this exciting technology. What is its potential, but mainly: where do we go from here? Will we start placing virtual objects on the streets before too long? Or will we go hunting outside for virtual monsters in AR games?
 +
 +We also raise critical issues such as: are AR browsers real browsers? With a web browser you can look at every web page. But what about AR Browsers on your mobile? Do they have a standard? And: how can we set this hype apart from reality?
 +
 +The UNMA is an Impakt Event organized in collaboration with z25, NetNiet.org and Utrecht University (Master New Media & Digital Culture).
