All are invited to attend nGen's Showcase Open House.

Learn more about our current projects and see first-hand how they have developed since nGen's inception.

You'll also have an opportunity to meet our new tenants and discover the innovative ideas they bring to the interactive media community.

 

Our Projects:

 

"Noise in Niagara" is a social networking application for Niagara's music scene. It is a portal and web magazine aimed at showcasing independent bands, that will also provide opportunities for musicians to collaborate, for fans and programmers to connect with musicians, and to provide a schedule of music events and appearances.

 

The Niagara 1812 Interactive Experience will blend the real and virtual worlds.. Tourists will explore the real world environment of Niagara, as well as a virtual space, (complete with historic characters, artefacts and mysteries) which they will access through phones such as the Apple iPhone. It will use the medium of a hybrid reality game to incorporate Niagara’s history and culture – especially those places, people and events connected to the bicentennial celebration of the War of 1812 – into an enjoyable, immersive and enlightening experience for tourists.

 

The Investment Attraction Tool will serve the St. Catharines Economic Development and Tourism Service. It is one of a series of short sector-based videos that will be distributed on the web and by interactive DVD. The piece in the series undertaken by nGen features the entertainment and digital media sector and highlights significant Niagara content creators such as Silicon Knights and other anchors of the new media industry in Niagara. This project has interactive features that showcase regional talent and demonstrate the capacities of Niagara.
