  • A Celebration of the Art, Science and Inventions of Steve Mann @ Digifest
    A Celebration of the Art, Science and Inventions of Steve Mann @ digifest 2004 : On The Move Introduction Since its inception in 2002 digifest has established itself as Canada’s premiere festival of digital culture and innovation, showcasing Canadian and international visionaries in the realms of digital art, science and design. Produced by The Design Exchange in partnership with Harbourfront Centre and the Ontario Science Centre, digifest 2004: On the Move will investigate the cultural implications of digital mobility and the nomadic nature of information and identity within connected culture. The economics, art and science of digital mobility will be examined by renowned innovators from the fields of engineering, industrial design, interactive film, graphic design, robotics, intelligent fashions and wireless gaming, each addressing one of our sub-themes: Home, Self and Tribe. Our Keynote Speaker at digifest 2004: On the Move will be Professor Steve Mann of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty at the University of Toronto. Professor Mann is internationally renowned for his contributions to art and science as the developer of the first wearable computer and as the driving force behind 3 decades of artistic and scientific experimentation as a pioneer in exploring life as a cyborg. Like so many Canadian visionaries, however, Steve Mann is better known abroad than he is at home. The co-curators of digifest, Paola Poletto and John Sobol, plan to change that by celebrating the extraordinary scope and quality of Steve Mann’s work at all three presenting venues of digifest 2004 – The Design Exchange, The Ontario Science Centre and Harbourfront Centre -– in a major retrospective and showcase.

  • Self Guided Tour
    The Toronto Ghosts & Hauntings Research Society Present s… About This Document: Since early October of 1997, The Toronto Ghosts and Hauntings Research Society has been collecting Toronto’s ghostly legends and lore for our website and sharing the information with anyone with an interest in things that go bump in the night… or day… or any time, really. If it’s ghostly in nature, we try to stay on top of it. One of the more popular things for a person with a passion for all things spooky is to do a “ghost tour”… which is something that our group has never really offered and never planned to do… but it is something we get countless requests about especially during the Hallowe’en season. Although we appreciate and understand the value of a good guided ghost tour for both the theatrical qualities and for a fun story telling time and as such, we are happy to send people in Toronto to Richard Fiennes-Clinton at Muddy York Walking Tours (who offers the more theatrical tours focusing on ghosts and history, see Image Above Courtesy of Toronto Tourism www.muddyyorktours.com) We do also understand that at Hallowe’en, these types of tours can Self Guided Walking Tour of fill up quickly and leave people in the lurch. Also, there are people that cannot make time for these tours because of scheduling or other commitments. Another element to consider is that we know there are Downtown Toronto people out there who appreciate a more “DIY” (do it yourself) flavour for things… so we have developed this booklet… This is a “DIY” ghost tour… self guided… from Union Station to Bloor Street….
