TheVerge: Why Slack could be the future of conferences
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Oct. 5, 2015

Oct. 5, 2015

http://www.theverge.com/2015/9/18/9349425/slack-future-of-conferences-xoxo-… Excerpts: "...at the XOXO Festival...I saw a new app remaking the conference experience in more ways than I could count. And the app, strangely enough, is Slack..... ....Here’s how it played out at XOXO Festival, the 4-year-old creative playground curated by internet heroes Andy Baio and Andy McMillan. The Andys, as they are collectively known, bring together comic-book artists, web developers, musicians, designers, startup CEOs, and other creative types to discuss the challenges and triumphs of making things independently, online and off. They limit attendance to about 1,000 people chosen through a lottery; the people who attend include many of the forward-thinking types you once found at South By Southwest. And this year, more than a month before the festival, they created a Slack team that anyone attending was free to join.... By the time XOXO got underway, attendees had created more than 150 channels to discuss and organize around nearly every topic imaginable. The most widely read channels were "the commons," where the Andys posted news about the festival relevant to all attendees. But subgroups formed in a hurry. There were channels for discussing accessibility; channels for singles and the polyamorous; channels for people interested in cannabis; channels for attendees who identify as LGBT. Some channels had dozens of members; others had 10 or fewer. The result was that by the time many attendees arrived in Portland, there was already a subset of their fellow festival-goers waiting to greet them. And throughout the three days of XOXO, Slack was a thriving hub of conversation, offering a place for attendees to encourage and congratulate speakers, ask questions about the event’s code of conduct, and find like-minded souls with whom to sneak out and grab a beer, or a bite, or whatever."

This research from Japan into automated captioning systems could be useful in future for other non-English languages where manual captioning is needed because of the limited availability of speech recognition software: http://phys.org/news/2015-09-automatic-subtitling-trialed-academic-conferen… -- Gunela Astbrink GSA InfoComm PO Box 600 Ballina NSW 2478 Australia Mobile: +61 417 715738 Email: g.astbrink(a)gsa.com.au www.gsa.com.au
