“Will the Real

THEATER 1 - 6:00 – 7:15 PM EST
Please Stand Up?”
We think we know creativity when we see it, but do we? In the
SCOTT ROSS early days of computer entertainment, it was the MIT
mathematicians who made the special effects work. How did
they merge the reality of the world as they saw it with the reality
of the moviegoer? Is there a creative personality? What do you
think of as the creative type?
Scott Ross shares how his career as a special effects digital
pioneer meant he had to challenge his stereotypes of creativity
and learn how to best help talented people with differing skills
and personalities work together. Finally, Scott will urge us to plan
for the future as the technology in our daily lives becomes even
more ubiquitous and powerful.
