A BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from participants. MobileCamp is a mobile-technology-themed BarCamp.
MobileCampNYC was the first MobileCamp to be held in NYC and focus on mobile technology. It was enjoyed by all, as you can see on the official page here.
MobileCampNYC2 is going to once again bring together mobile enthusiasts, explorers and professionals to share the current state and their visions for the future direction of mobility. MobileCampNYC2 hopes to support the many voices helping to unlock the potential of a truly digital life. Topics may include - but are not limited to - mobile gaming, entrepreneurship, social mobility and presence, near field communication, physical hyperlinking, mobile storytelling, the importance of open standards, protocols, and platforms, linux based devices, and mobility on other continents.
Note: We have merged MobileCampNYC2 with MobileBarCodeCamp, since the overlap of both events are big enough to make it into one. The idea is to have a dedicated track for all things related to Barcodes, RFID and Physical Hyperlinking in general. For this track we will have 10 sessions dedicated to one room (although it is still possible to use free spots on the main grid later.)
Check out the TheRulesOfBarCamp to learn what to expect.

The Head Trauma Cinematic Games
Creating story worlds that engage audience across multiple screens and platforms.
No one is safe from the Net effect of HEAD TRAUMA, the brainchild of Lance Weiler, culture hacker and acclaimed writer-director. Murder and mayhem emerge from the streets, mobile phones, social networks, and online video clips as Horror 2.0 updates thrills from today’s most pervasive mediums.
Subversive (Mobile) Storytelling
Knifeandfork explores methods of embodied narrative using mobile phones. Brian House presents case studies of Hundekopf (2005, Berlin) and The Wrench, a forthcoming project for Rhizome.org using the new open source TXTML platform.
Using Geolocation in your mobile applications
Lets discuss the available mobile geostack and the pitfalls or benefits related to each one. If you have a mobile app that uses location, bring it and show it off.
