In collaboration with g.tec Medical Engineering Gunther Krausz (from Austria) Medialogy is organizing a very interesting hands-on workshop on “brain-computer-interaction” at our department in Sydhavn.
The workshop is free and is open to interested research staff, students and external researchers. Registration is needed as there is a limited capacity to around 25-30 participants who, besides the lectures, will be divided into four practical groups to experiment with BCI equipment.
From our department Sofia Dahl and Luis Emilio Bruni will make presentations during the workshop, and Gunther Krausz will represent g.tec Medical Technology and take part in the practical part of the workshop. For more information about the workshop and for registration see this PDF: BCI_workshop_gtec_2013.pdf

Art Of Crime: Micro Game Development and Collaborations with Medialogy
On friday the 19th of April from 14:00-15:00, Mike Sjørslev Khamphoukeo and Theis Dinesen will give a talk about possible collaborations with the game company Art Of Crime (http://artofcrime.com/).
The company is open for collaborations during the semester projects, this is normally possible during the 9th semester but it could be of interest to all Medialogy students.
Mike and Theis will present the company, their working model and will give some examples of micro games that could be developed by you.
The Talk will be given in the main AAU-CPH building in the auditorium (room 1.008) from 14:00-15:00. – see more here: http://www.facebook.com/events/162826440546961/?context=create#
