Media Sandbox Capstone Series
Following TEDxLansing 2012

Friday, April 13 |  <http://lansingmedia.com/pages/about> Lansing Public
Media Center | 2:30p to 5:00p

With a focus on information design and video entertainment, the inaugural
Media Sandbox Series explores visual communication through the lenses of
design, business and technology. Our guests aren't just good; they're the
best. They'll tell us about how their brains operate (or try to, at least)
and the work that they do. Following their talks, a panel will convene for
an interactive conversation including those burning questions we'll surely
want to ask.

The  <http://mediasandbox.cas.msu.edu/> Media Sandbox Series is a
collaboration between the College of Communication Arts & Sciences at
Michigan State University and the  <http://capitalcityfilmfest.com/> Capital
City Film Festival.

Join us for a day of ideas worth spreading and rock stars worth meeting.
