The Machine Stops in Reno

Joe Crowley Student Union Theater
University of Nevada, Reno

Thursday, May 13 - 7pm
"The Machine Stops"
a Benefit Screening for Chilean Earthquake Relief

The Digital Media Studio of UNR presents "The Machine Stops", an experimental machinima animation project. Based upon E.M. Forster's 1909 classic science fiction short story, the film was created almost entirely within the online world of Second Life with animation created by students in Professor Joseph DeLappe's Imaging and Mixed Media course. The sound track was created by Professor Jean-Paul Perotte's Music Composition course.

This world premiere event is a fundraiser for Chilean earthquake relief: all proceeds go to "Una Escuela Para Chile/A School For Chile".

Admission $5.00
