Millikin event features the latest in digital performance
Millikin University's annual Arts Technology Expo is not only a platform for creativity and innovation, but a time to bring together a variety of projects and student-run ventures under one roof.
This year's expo, hosted on Dec. 4 in the University Commons, featured student work in design, photography, videography, animation, audio production, marketing and interactive media. Guests were given an opportunity to engage with technology such as virtual reality tools and robotics.
Student-run ventures on hand included Millikin University Performance Consulting (MUPC), a company that helps local businesses with any technical needs they might have; Millikin's retail art gallery Blue Connection; Ignite Studios and Millikin Audio Recording Services (MARs); MIST, an entrepreneurial collective of singers, songwriters, musicians, arrangers, beat makers, rappers, technologists and music business personnel; and Millikin Creates, which announced its official launch for this spring semester.
Millikin Creates plans to take on client work in all areas of arts technology such as design, photography, video, animation, web and audio.
