Now it s off to take in a few sessions. The first session I attend is billed as a tutorial, which is as close to a one-way dialogue as you find at this conference. Even this tutorial is highly interactive, with many people asking questions, enough that the presenter runs out of time and can t show all of the slides he intended. Mike is off to a session about working with the limited memory spaces of portable devices, which I find out later was quite interesting. The second session I attend is a workshop.
Workshops are interesting affairs.
I guess when one of them covers three hours it s quite easy to have the day pass by. Time to shower, then meet at the pub with my home group and discuss the issues of the day. We talk about what sessions everyone went to see and what they thought, and then switch gears into non-OT topics which, after all, was the charter of our group. Time for dinner at the great hall again. After dinner, there is a drumming workshop scheduled.
