I-Race

Following in the footsteps of computer generated Hollywood blockbusters like Toy Story, Shrek and Final Fantasy, I-Race is the world’s first TV channel to depend entirely on computer generated content. How is this different from other TV channels? I-Race shows a new, computer generated horse race every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and allows viewers to place bets on the races and to train the horses as well. Come and find out how it’s done.

A limited number of free  tickets for the talk are available on a first-come first-served basis.  Please send an email to Mike Hurst providing him with the number and names of the attendees, and the address to which tickets should be sent.
