“That’s an interesting idea. And then you just worked within the pacing or you paused it here & there”

Eben, in Keynote, one can output a QT movie that includes paws, awaiting a mouse...

Cheers!

I was hoping Mr Berlow would have a visual since he was not “talking about tracking ever again” :-)

I cut my last keynote down to a 100 mb QT movie to get it to just fit on disposable usb media. It’s the safe way.

Cheers

Thanks Thomas!

Registration, hotel info, and visa info will all be posted within a few days.

I will ask at the Dept of State and my insurance company to see what they think. It seem like there is often a presentation notebook at these things. If we can get a copy of Keynote on it then I will be happy, although maybe Keynote exports to PP format...

Thankfully, the dissertation

Thankfully, the dissertation deadline at Reading is just before the ATypI conference instead of just after it. I guess I’ll take David’s advice, and leave my laptop in England.

David, Thanks for the advice

Eben Sorkin — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 10:45:19 -0700

David, Thanks for the advice and the link. Maybe I can bring my talk on a pair of jump drives rather than a full-on rig. Are you going BTW?

I’m getting going to please Joe, but I’m never talking about tracking again, Ever.:)

I’ve been wisely advised: don’t take any hardware you cannot afford to loose completely. Don’t take any software you can’t afford to turn over to a complete stranger, with all ownership rights, for free. Don’t buy anything that looks old and try to bring it home; the customs chaps have a vague rule about antiquities export protection in their holsters and if they or their wife or mom want what you got, they enforce. Don’t ever use credit cards or give anyone any numbers. Make sure a witness is with you if you ever need to give up your passport to anyone for any reason.

.gov has much more to say, much of which is so diplomatically phrased, you might miss it.;)

Cheers!

I am going to AtypI in St. Petersburg, Russia. Any advice?

Eben Sorkin — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 01:05:51 -0700

I am going to AtypI in St. Petersburg, Russia to give my talk on Contextual Alternatives in roman text face design. I am very happy about this! :-) In the meantime as I prepare, I wonder: do you have any advice for me about St. Petersburg? AtypI? Cusine? Pre-AtypI tourisim? Anything else? Feel free to reply here or to contact me privately. Thanks!
