>> Title: Presentation of the Singularity University
>>
>> Abstract: The Singularity University (SU) is an interdisciplinary
>> university whose mission is to assemble, educate and inspire a cadre
>> of leaders who strive to understand and facilitate the development of
>> exponentially advancing technologies in order to address humanity’s
>> grand challenges. With the support of a broad range of leaders in
>> academia, business and government, SU hopes to stimulate
>> groundbreaking, disruptive thinking and solutions aimed at solving
>> some of the planet’s most pressing challenges. SU is based at the NASA
>> Ames campus in Silicon Valley and offers two main types of programs:
>> an annual 9-week Graduate Studies Program as well as 3- and 10-day
>> Executive Programs throughout the year.
>>
>> Teleplace is one of the best 3D applications for telework, online
>> meetings, group collaboration, and e-learning in a virtual 3D
>> environment (v-learning). It is a powerful telepresence environment
>> where multiple participants can stream their webcam video to
>> interactive 3D online meeting areas and workspaces. The virtual 3D
>> space permits effectively organizing the work areas and creates the
>> impression of "being there", which is fundamental for effective remote
>> collaboration. One of the main features of Teleplace is its ability to
>> immediately import Office documents from the desktop for presentations
>> and collaborative editing.
>>
>> The talk is sponsored by Teleplace and Italsat.
>>
>> There are a few seats available for the online interactive event,
>> please contact me by email if you wish to attend, or request to join
>> the teleXLR8 Facebook group. For those who cannot attend, the talk
>> will be posted to telexlr8.blip.tv on May 12.
