Five Minutes of Fame is a trademarked event allowing NMC academic members to show off their latest new media projects. At every Five Minutes of Fame demonstration, selected New Media Centers are given five minutes each to highlight innovations of all sorts, from multimedia and web-based projects, to course modules and newly invented or adapted tools, to student portfolios and collaborations with off-campus groups. In each fast-paced session, you’ll see numerous examples of the exciting work your NMC colleagues are doing.

  • Dancing in The Virtual World
  • Information Design: Web Based Mineral Identification Using QTVR and the Petrographic Microscope
