Dioscuri: Relationships between Designers and Developers at IndyHall Labs
Like Castor and Pollux, designers and developers complement each other in mythical ways. Getting some of the talent from both in the same room can make wonderful debate and produce incredibly engaging projects. Indy Hall Labs provides the perfect incubator for these relationships to blossom into killer products.
This discussion is intended to become a Rosetta Stone for both camps. Focus will be on how this relationship is cultivated. Designers will gain insight on interface and branding, communication, and limits of the medium. Developers will get a glimpse into the mind of a visual artist and how, with a bit of art direction, their app can look like a streamlined butterfly!
Howard Blumenthal, CEO, MiND TV
New Ideas for an Old Medium
Public television has a big problem — each generation finds it less relevant than the one that came before it. In this presentation, Howard Blumenthal will discuss the recent transformation of WYBE, an 18-year-old independent public television station in Philadelphia, into MiND TV, a multi-platform learning channel featuring community-generated content. MiND strives to reduce the public television generation gap by encouraging and empowering anyone to produce digital video programs that will air regularly to a diverse audience on regional broadcast and cable television, as well as online at mindtv.org and other media-sharing sites. Blumenthal will also discuss the the impact of new technologies on the television industry, and the unique role small innovators often play to lead the way for positive change in any industry.

Refresh Philly January Recap
The last couple of years Doctor Who was on the air in the late 1980s, the writers started experimenting with the often-boring relationship between the Doctor and his cute travel companion. They introduced Ace, a rebellious teenager with a love of explosives. At first, the Ace-Doctor relationship was just a little spicier than the traditional Doctor/ambiguous-friend pairing, but over time it became a lot more. The Doctor started putting Ace through a series of tests and forcing her to confront her fears. She, in turn, started questioning the Doctor’s goals and methods more than any companion before her. The Doctor-Ace relationship provided an inspiration for some of the more fully realized companions of today, like Rose.
