Speaking at eTech

On Sunday I'm packing my bags and heading for San Diego for eTech. I've always wanted to go to eTech - it seems to be one of the most interesting events on the circuit - and this year I'm incredibly excited to be speaking! Fellow Tramponaught Charles Armstrong and I are tag teaming Collective Intelligence, Indeterminacy, and the Illusion of Control... It's a bit of a mouthful, I know. It should be interesting though and I'm looking forward to it. Charles is doing the first half on the human need to build mental models of the tools they use and I'm going to quickly run through the increasing difficulty in letting them do that with modern emergent systems. Yep.

Straight after the conference I'm going to be hopping in a car and driving to San Francisco via the coast road. I don't exactly know why but it appeals to me for some reason. I did a long drive down to Key West during The Spring Experience in December and really enjoyed it. This time it'll be two or three days on the road, staying in motels along the way - a proper road trip. Then I've got a few days in SF to just chill, have a look around and take in the sights before heading back to London. It should be a good 10 days!
