  8. Display output is highly malleable, as demonstrated by ongoing exhibitions of underlying system for the Scalable City. From multi user desktops, to multiscreen immersive displays Zacheta Gallery – Warsaw E3 – Los Angeles Ars Electronica –Austria India International Center – New Delhi Museum of Contemporary Art - Shanghai National Academy of Science, Wash. DC Siggraph 2007 Exploratorium – San Francisco Supercomputing 2007 FILE, Sao Paulo, Brazil Los Angeles Barnsdall Art GalleryGallery@calit2 Beall Center for Art and Technology Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Keio University 3D Media Film Festival, Belgium SPIE Festival San Jose, CA CES, Las Vegas Supercomputing 2009 LA Freewaves, LA CA Real Fake Exhibit, CSU Sacramento New This Year: Maisond’allieurs, Switzerland Dutch Film Festival Moscow Museum of Multimedia, Russia

  9. Sponsors Existing Sponsors: • IBM provide dues and in-kind • Intel stopped this year – re-evaluating their strategy as members of industry consortium projects. Discussions with new members: • Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination is cultivating founding corporate sponsors – discussion with several in which CHMPR membership would be a component. • Sony –continues to provide $50K of in-kind support per year, reluctant to sign member agreement.
