Newhouse School of Public Communications, and the College of Visual and Performing Arts all gathered to attend this annual convention that hosted music, film and technology panels and events. The Interactive portion of the convention brought in key players from the worlds of technology and creativity to host panels, booths, and product demonstrations.
