mscapeFest annual conference

In 2009, mscapeFest took place in The Netherlands as a place where the global mscape community could gather, share their experiences and learn new insights into the deployment of the mscape technology.

The mscapeFest crowd attracts people from a huge range of backgrounds: Higher education, the arts, creative industry (gaming), digital media, government, schools, tourism/heritage and enterprise. Apart from a UK contingent we have had delegates travelling from Taiwan, the US, The Netherlands, France, Spain, Canada, Singapore, Greece, Ireland, Germany, Denmark and Lithuania.

Previous conferences were held at HP Labs in Bristol (UK) and in Belfast, Northern Ireland with a focus on education, gaming and heritage as key areas where mscape is used.
