Community Arts & Technology Symposium (CATS) π Day

We are a group of artists, builders, creators, designers, engineers, and founders (ABCDEF!) bringing soul back to technology and power back to art. Community Arts & Tech Symposium (CATS) is organized by Festicats a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to directly pay interdisciplinary artists to host immersive experiences featuring visual and performing arts. Every dollar donated goes directly to an artist. Dress code: Wear whatever makes you, you. Cat ears and LED fairy lights will be provided but bring your own if you’ve got them. Please bring an Apple Vision Pros if you've got one! Buy a ticket to support the artists! Every penny goes to the artists. https://blocklive.io/event/catssf Highlight Reel from the last event: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4a9I1yr8lr/ CATS was covered in the SF Standard! https://sfstandard.com/2024/02/24/san-francisco-vision-pro-parties-trend/ --- Schedule ---- 5:00-6:00pm Happy Hour 6:00-7:00pm Lightning Talks 7:00-8:00pm Pi Day Pizza Party 8:00-9:00pm Apple Vision Pro Demos 9:00-10:00pm Immersive Art Symposium! 8:00-2:00am DJs & Dancing ​--- Apple Vision Pro Demos!! --- ​8:10 XploreD by Ravi Krishnan - 3D immersive fly by tours around the world. ​8:20 Spatial GPT by Piram Singh - Ask ChatGPT anything! ​8:30 Mahjohng Space by Ethan Sherbondy - immersive multiplayer mahjong ​8:40 SpaceTube by Scott Hoge - immersive videos streaming on demand ​8:50 AiDreamRunner42 by Konrad Gnat - the worlds first AI-generated 360 world app --- DJ LineUp ---- 8:00 SUZZ 9:00 HAPKI 10:00 LIDIYA
