Tech Devil

Thought I’d do one of those posts to let you know what I’m going to try and catch this year. There’s always so many good things on it’s difficult to pick what to go to but hopefully there wont be too many clashes with things I’d like to attend.

Sunday 20th September

• Julian Dolce – iPhone app development for flash developers

Monday 21st September

• Keynote
• Keith Peters – Casual game architecture (or Mike Chambers – Advanced desktop development… a clash already!!)
• Chuck Freedman – Visualizing voice (clients are always asking for this kind of thing)
• Mike Jones – Who’s a bright spark then!
• Thea Eaton – Accessible action games (or Dr Woohoo! – Cybernetic art revisited)
• Hillman Curtis – Telling stories
• Joel Gethin Lewis – Epiphany

Tuesday 22nd September

• Elevator pitch – 3 minute wonders (not sure if 3 minutes is long enough, expect a mess but it could be fun!)
• Grant Skinner – Quick as a flash

• Richard Lord – Application frameworks
• Paul Burnett – More than bending pixels
• Contrast – Unconventional web applications
