TVLab Trade Show

What

On March 10, 2023, the Taubman Visualization Lab (TVLab) is hosting TRADE SHOW – a one-day series of free and public lectures, workshops, installations, forums and tech demos focusing on emergent visualization technologies and their spatial applications.

Increasingly powerful, affordable, and intuitive, XR technology has seen sizable public and private sector investment from industries as diverse as education, healthcare, transportation and entertainment signaling that extended reality is diversely applicable, and here to stay. In the fields of architecture, design and planning, the story of XR’s applicability is still unfolding.  TRADE SHOW convenes a cross section of thinkers in academia, the professions, and industry to shine a light on current speculative and applied XR design and visualization practices and to spark conversation about adaptations yet to come.

Where

Informal, interactive and approachable, TRADE SHOW events, staged concurrently throughout Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, will sponsor unexpected discoveries across diverse topics.  Events will be held in Taubman College’s Commons, CMYK and TVLab spaces.
