Heather Gold to emcee DUX 2005
We are delighted to feature Heather Gold as DUX 2005 Master of Ceremonies.
Heather performs at venues and conferences across North America, like San Francisco's Just for Laughs Showcase 2004, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, New Media Invision Awards, Berkeley Arts Museum (Powerpoint for Peace), Silicon Valley's BlogHer and Top 25 Women of the Web Awards, Toronto's altdotcomedy, Austin's SxSW and Vortex Rep, and New York's Gotham Comedy Club. She contributes to many shows and publications, including the Toronto Globe and Mail, shift magazine, TechTV's Silicon Spin, The Learning Channel, The San Jose Mercury News, and her own popular subvert.com.
Heather spent years on the business side of the entertainment and media world. She followed and help further the promising path of digital convergence which she felt would eventually democratize distribution of art and media. Heather worked in strategic roles at New Line, CD-ROM pioneer Knowledge Adventure, Apple Computer's first music group which pioneered webcasting, and as a commentator for Yahoo Financevision. She also sat on the Advisory Board of SxSW Interactive for 4 years and has been a Webby humour judge and member of the International Academy of Arts and Digital Sciences since 2000.
Listen to Heather talk about DUX 2005 on an upcoming TechNation on U.S. public radio.
And, of course, hear, see, and meet Heather next week at DUX 2005.
