[Air-l] c u in LA

[Heidelberg, Chris]

Barry:

Can you tell me where the Center for Digital Futures is located in LA
because unfortunately I do not live there, but I have some general
familiarity with LA because I often do post production work in Burbank,
Century City and Beverly Hills. Is it open to the public or is it open
only to organization members? I would like to visit it and get a photo
as part of my digital dissertation which I am preparing to defend at the
beginning of next semester or the end of this year. I could just fly in
for a day or two.

Chris

I will be in LA Nov 1 - Dec 2, hanging out at the Center for Digital
Futures (near Pershing Square), aka World Internet Project.

This may provide the opportunity for some face-time with AoIR people.
Please get in touch. (For various reasons, I don't know if I will have
e-contact Nov 1-7. But try.) I can always be reached via Phoebe Schramm
at the Centre (oops, Center -- I'd better get that right before Homeland
starts tailing me) for Digital Futures.

I also expect to be talking at greater Hillsboro (aka Portland OR) Dec 7
and suburban Microsoft (U Washington) Dec 8.

And if I still have your attention, see my Second Bar Mitzvah speech
(aka my hour-long inaugural Endowed Chair lecture) on my website. Click
on Publications, and then Presentations, and then find "The Internet in
Everyday Life"  blurb that starts with "Eighty nine slides ..."

There will be a video, integrated with the slides, eventually.

PS: I ran a seminar with the American Marketing Association yesterday,
in which they were mega-surprised that some scholars are diffident about
posting to this list about their work because it is "self-promotion".

When I (and NetLab) have spent months and years researching and writing
it, I/we want people to read it and hear it!!!
