State of Play IV Asia announced

August 23rd, 2006

And it’s going to be in Singapore! Well, that lowers the chances I’ll attend, I suppose! I haven’t made it to the last two because work pressures kept me away, but this year I was looking forward to it. Here’s the announcement for State of Play IV Asia, whose topic is “building the global metaverse.” Looks like Neal Stephenson will be a speaker.

Fortunately, there is the New York version in October.

      Raph should you be down in the Hucksters room spending too much on old papaerbacks, or a Original Silent Running Movie poster ? :)

      Or is it too early for World Con yet ?

      It starts tomorrow, and I won’t get there until late afternoon or evening. :)

      Wait, there IS the New York version in October? Thank God. Singapore was just too far away. But don’t see the sign-up page for October?

      There’s a New York version in October, but… what the heck? There isn’t even an announcement that I can find for it. And it’s only a month and a half away!

      The themes are completely different. How can you have the same speakers and program? If you don’t… where’s the New York version!? *frazzled and confused*

      I took a closer look… it says “Law, Education, and Virtual Worlds Workshop“. To me, this implies that it’s not really a conference…

      Hi — Noticed the discussion about the October version of SoP. I’m not involved in organizing it, but my understanding is that it is a small workshop related to the use of virtual worlds as learning environments in a legal context. The full-blown SoP will be held in Singapore in January. We realize that the current SoP site is confusing on this issue, and will make sure to clarify first thing tomorrow.

      I don’t suppose there is any way for a Singaporean reader of this site to change your mind is there? Would like to see you come down and talk. =)

      Yes, Raph. I agree with dagger. We would love to see you come down and talk at the conference. Do you think you will be able to join us?
