Welcome to the 1st Western Australian Symposium on Visualization, 
Emerging Media, and User-Experience!

The aim of the symposium is to lay ground for a yearly symposium and 
develop towards a leading forum

for inter-disciplinary thinkers of industrial professionals, academics, 
and practitioners to discuss

and present the latest emerging trends in media, visualization, 
human-computer interaction, and the

use of new emerging technologies in industry-university cooperation in 
teaching and research.

The purpose of the symposium is to provide an inter-disciplinary event 
and gather a committed community

to continue cooperating together beyond the event on other larger scale 
activities such as collaborative

funding proposals, scientific events, industry-university 
collaborations, or simply other networking

activities.
