Proposals for the 20th Annual Demo Night Now Being Accepted!

VSS is pleased to announce that the 20th Annual Visual Demos Evening at VSS will
be held on Monday, May 20, 2024, at the TradeWinds Islands Resorts, St. Pete
Beach. Demo Night is a celebration of Vision science featuring demonstrations of
visual phenomena, both old and new.

The Demo Night committee is seeking submissions of particularly dramatic,
provocative, educational, and entertaining demonstrations of visual phenomena.
There is no requirement that the demos be novel. Submissions that highlight
classic effects are welcome. We encourage submissions of large-scale
demonstrations that transcend the bounds of the tabletop, such as immersive
experiences and also ones that are "physical" and do not rely on computer
graphics.

VSS and the TradeWinds Island Resorts can provide tables, electrical outlets,
some wall space and/or screens for projections, and poster boards upon request.
The organizers will help coordinate special needs (e.g., theatrical lighting) on
a case-by-case basis. Each presenter will be responsible for bringing and
setting up any other necessary equipment for their demos, including data
projectors and other displays.

If you have a demo that you would like to present for Demo Night, please fill
out the submission form located on the
