ZenFri Inc.

The moment when I discovered a project ZenFri Inc. worked on was discussed on national television and I didn’t know about it till many months later is a uplifting way to end the week. Here’s a clips from CBC Kids discussing Turtle Island Skate Jam, made with love by Sasha, Christian, Vadym, Dee and Kelsey. Thanks to Jeff and his team at CBC and Nation Skate Youth for all their hard work, collaboration and trust in us. #gamedev

On December 4th, I'll be doing a talk titled "From Caution to Confidence: How to Stop Worrying and Learn to ❤️ AI" at the Tourism Industry Association of Canada Congress in #Vancouver. Details > https://lnkd.in/d7BmAjXs This talk will explore the issues, concerns, and possibilities of AI in tourism. It will include a case study on the inspiration for and development of Artefacta, a platform for curators, historical sites, archives, remote communities, and more! This will be the first time I'm publicly discussing this work, which has been developed with feedback and collaboration from stakeholders of various scales and has been gaining a lot of traction across Canada. #TIACCongress2024 #CanadianTourism #TourismCongress #TourismCanada #Museums #AI #ArtificialIntelligence 

Happy to have been part of this local industry panel about the XR industry. It's rare to have the 3 of us (Khal, Dan and I) on a panel together, but it definitely made for an exciting and insightful event. Corinne had a big task keeping three of the most prolific talkers on task, but it all worked out well - learned a lot. Thanks to Fabio of Hyper Canada and New Media Manitoba for inviting me to his event.

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of presenting at Interpretation Canada 2024 on the topic of Digital Interpretation (and where we go next) with Rob Malo. It was an engaging discussion with crowd participation on how immersive technologies are transforming the way we connect with stories, history, and culture. ZenFri Inc. has been blending physical and digital experiences for over a decade now so it was lovely to dive into the work behind the work. Excited to see where this journey takes us next! #DigitalInterpretation #ImmersiveTech #CulturalHeritage #VirtualConference
