A Flurry of CyborgCamp Conferences

There’s been a great deal of interest in the idea of CyborgCamp recently. In fact, there will be three CyborgCamps this year. Each one will be completely different, with its own local or international crowd, sponsors and ideaset. If you can’t make one, there’s two more to attend!

CyborgCamp Brasil will occur at the end of May 2010 in Sao Paulo, Brasil.

CyborgCamp Seattle will occur in July 2010 in Seattle, Washington.

CyborgCamp Portland will occur in October 2010 at Webtrends.

CyborgCamp Planning Meeting at AboutUs

Great News! The next CyborgCamp will be in October! That means its time to start planning!

cyborgcamp-2010-planning

This meeting is everyone’s chance to brainstorm on location ideas, sponsors and speakers. What kinds of topics are of interest to you? How has the idea of Cyborg evolved over the last year? What new kinds of technologies have arrived on the scene?

We’ll discuss volunteers and the wiki too. Come along, especially if you helped make CyborgCamp PDX ’08 so excellent in the first place. Bring snacks and drinks to share with others.

This planning meeting will most likely be followed by general networking and fun at a local haunt.

When:

What is CyborgCamp?

CyborgCamp is an unconference about the future of the relationship between humans and technology. We’ll discuss topics such as social media, design, code, inventions, web 2.0, twitter, the future of communication, cyborg technology, anthropology, psychology, and philosophy.

CyborgCamp’s aim is to have many communication channels, such as Twitter, Flickr, UstreamTV, Video and Audio recordings and live chats displayed on the screen.
Why May 2010? In March 2010, CyborgCamp will make its way to Brazil and back before landing again in Portland, Oregon for its second year.

CyborgCamp Videos Online

Blaze Streaming Media did a great job digitizing and uploading all of these videos. Now you can watch any sessions you missed online, or watch them for the first time if you missed the conference or were unable to attend remotely.

You can watch all of the Videos here, or at http://cyborgcamp.blip.tv.

The CyborgCamp bumper music (the music that goes before each video segment) was very kindly created by @CalvinLotz. He and @zsazsa run Bumpertunes.net, which creates custom music for videos. Nifty, huh?

Thanks again for coming to CyborgCamp. Hope to see you all (and many more) next year!
