For this episode, we’re doing a special LIVE recording of the Make the Future podcast at the University of Ottawa’s Kanata North offices in front of a wonderful audience to discuss one of our favorite subjects, combining engineering and arts, more precisely: Creativity, VR and Engineering Design!
We’re joined once again by Hanan Anis, Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Ottawa, by Chantal Rodier the Faculty of Engineering’s Artist-in-Residence and Elisha Pruner, a two-time uOttawa Engineering alumna part of the first CEED cohort who currently works as a Software Developer in Machine Learning and Virtual Reality at the Ottawa Hospital.
