After seven years, Virtuality has decided to give its conference a new name. Virtuality will now be known as the VIEW Conference, an acronym for Virtual Interactive Emerging World.

From Nov. 6-9 in Turin, Italy, the View-Virtuality Conference is a premiere international event on computer graphics, cinema, animation, videogames, design, advertising and digital architecture. More than 7,000 visitors are expected, with more than 60 talks, classes and workshops, movie premieres and more than 100 international guests.

Three Academy Award-winners, Glenn Entis (Electronic Arts), Christophe Hery (Industrial Light and Magic) and Grant Major (Weta), plus Pixar Animation Studios Director of Photography Sharon Calahan, are just some of the guests scheduled to appear during VIEW.

With them, VIEW will have some outstanding personalities from the entertainment world: big names such as Lucia Modesto (PDI DreamWorks), Paul Topolos (Pixar), Jessica McMackin (Pixar), Parag Havaldar (Sony Pictures Imageworks), virtual designer Tino Schaedler, Peter Nofz (Sony Pictures Imageworks), Jorgen Tharaldsen (Funcom), Javier Jimenez (Motion Theory), ARG artists Dave Szulborski and Ken Eklund, and world-famous virtual media artist Franz Fishnaller (F.A.B.R.I.CATORS, City Cluster), with his immersive 3D stereo interactive virtual-reality art installation: SOE, The Space on Earth Project.
