The trade association AVIXA has pushed out an update on plans for this fall’s planned InfoComm show that I think most people who were planning to go will greet with one collective, “Oh Crap! […]
If you watched any of the Olympics in Tokyo on broadcast TV or online you would have seen some stunning visual effects. The one that hit me was the projection mapping introductions for the highest profile track events – the 100 metre sprints for women and men. […]
The AV distribution company Almo Professional A/V is resuming its schedule of AV road shows in cities across the U.S., with organizers undoubtedly hoping the rapidly-rising case counts among unvaccinated Americans will not force those efforts back to online-only. The company has been doing these regional events for years, but they have been online only for the past 18 months or so. […]
It took all of about 36 hours, but I’m happy to report the digital signage mixer has a full set of sponsors and is good to go for late October in Orlando. Sponsors are needed to help cover the costs of the event – most notably in this case the cocktails. […]
The Digital Signage Federation and the trade association AVIXA have paired up again to run an industry-focused conference at InfoComm 2021 in late October in Orlando. The D=SIGN digital signage conference is a pair of half-day programs on Oct. 26-27 at the Orange County Convention Center – done in-person unlike the virtual version done last winter, pre-vaccinations. […]

One of the expected outcomes from the absence of big AV trade shows was individual suppliers and service providers re-thinking whether they need to do big shows – opting instead for their own events, done on their own time schedules and where they want and need to be. […]
The London micro-ISE show is on today and tomorrow, and it appears to have the same sort of dimensions and foot traffic as the one earlier in the month in Barcelona. […]
This week’s podcast, released overnight, has a lengthy, exclusive interview with Paul Miller, CEO of the company that acquired the assets to the defunct Digital Signage Expo and has designs on reviving the event. The podcast summary goes into the basics, but it is worthwhile expanding on what he said. […]
If the world wasn’t still upside down with the pandemic, many of you (plus me) would be in Orlando for InfoComm this week. The bad news is COVID. The good news is that you are not having to deal with punishing heat paired with 92% humidity (unless you already live in the south and this is just life … ugh). […]
The live event side of last week’s two-day physical ISE exhibition drew about 2,400 people to the Barcelona venue, with another 8,000 registered for the online presentations and virtual fair.
