Rébecca Kleinberger, a Ph.D. student from the Opera of the Future group at the MIT Media Lab, gave a presentation at Drexel University’s ExCITe Center as part of the monthly “lightning talks” series in which speakers from across the University share short, informal research updates and introduced new initiatives. Rebecca gave an overview of the past City Symphonies , described how the model evolved from Toronto, and explained our hopes about the Philadelphia Voices project. After the presentations, we met with a group of diverse and interesting individuals, discussed potential collaborations with various school programs, and gathered people’s impressions and ideas about the Philadelphia Voices project. |
