Meanwhile, the big thing can happen too in 2009. One thing I think would be a really good idea is if there is some kind of map around when things happen - the conferences always happen at about the same time every year. I've been at the ICMC twice now and I intend to go again, but that's always the last week of August or first week of September (for example). <br><br>Really, conferences are far too short -- and busy. If we can find a two-week window in the international conference schedule (ISMIR. ICMC. Pris Ars Electronica, NIME etc) then we could do it then.<br><br>Balancing this, those of us who have academic commitments need the summer to finalize our work, often, so maybe late July/Early August
would be a good time? <br><br>But---this is two years away. We still need to be precise about it though, because funding agencies are keen to have timetables/schedules etc.<br><br>And I was gutted I didn't go to the party...but I'd love to see you all in Sao Paulo in two years time...<br><br>Best,<br>Ed<span class="q"><br><br><br><br><b><i>PORRES <<a href="mailto:mentalosmosis@yahoo.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> mentalosmosis@yahoo.com</a>></i></b> wrote:</span><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><div><span class="e" id="q_114ec710ba814590_3"> <pre><tt><tt>> If it is a problem to get university support<br><br><br>Is actually the opposite.
