Sprouted from the woods of Pennsylvania, Underkoffler spent more than a decade at MIT. After three degrees and acquiring a practical knowledge of holography, Underkoffler became one of Hollywood's principal science advisors, designing futuristic worlds for films like Minority Report. Oblong Industries, his LA-based company, has been inventing gesturally-rich information environments since 2006.

Our team has been working hard behind the scenes to bring you a superb program for EG2020. However, in light of growing and legitimate concerns regarding the rapid spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) which have gutted international events of all sizes, we have made the difficult decision to put EG on hiatus until it is once again deemed safe.

We know how much each of you look forward to EG and we were looking forward to seeing old friends, and welcoming many new ones, but we do need to prioritize the health and safety of our attendees, presenters, and partners, especially those traveling from afar.
We will be in touch in due course with future plans.
