Dan Sandin is an internationally recognized pioneer of electronic art
and visualization. Working with Tom DeFanti, he combined the Sandin
Image Processor with real-time computer graphics and performed visual

concentrating on perfecting the design of the CAVE and its derivatives,
the ImmersaDesk and the Infinity Wall. His latest artworks involve the
use of camera-based video in VR environments. From 6 to 7 pm and

projects on the ImmersaDesk in the Art Lab.
