The final stretch

KI-X 2015 is in less than 24 hours! http://itsalmo.st/#ki-x2015 This means, in less than a day, you too, can come:

explore mental illness through the lens of everyday objects

help solve an unsolved murder and learn about forensics along the way

ask yourself: does having 600 friends in our pockets mean missing out on the ones right in front of us?

look at the cosmetics industry as a case study to examine how companies sell products, and

find out whether the villains we love to hate are really so evil after all

Also, feel free to say hi to the students who will be at the front desk throughout the three days that KI-X 2015 will be up on display! You could even ask all your burning questions about KI-X and hold your own exclusive interview with the students there!
