HYPERTEXT ’08 Hullabaloo
I’m up to about 27 slides in Keynote so far, mostly images of Storyspace maps, some text boxes, a couple Hyptertextopia slides, and a lot of either quotes from Hypercompendia postings on working with hypertext or some targeted slides with the whole bulleted thing; these latter two are really to mark my place in speaking and jog my memory as to what I am speaking about.
There are a lot of slides to add in yet–but there are many that can be taken out. I started with the visuals because they show the work in progress and yes, because they’re pretty. If I’m a complete failure as a speaker (that’s why I’m a writer, duh!) then at least there’ll be something nice to look at on the screen. As a last resort, I’ll do my Buster Brown ad. Poll Parrot too, if there’s time. And even Robert Hall for Tunxis’ sake.
Actually I’m very excited about this–scared out of my wits, but excited. There are some pretty solid hot shots in the hypertext field to stand alongside here, as well as another concurrently running workshop with which to share the available audience.
Please, come early to the Pittsburgh conference and come to our workshop; it’ll be exciting and fun!

I hope it is successful. After playing Pittsburgh, I can take it on the road! (I’m kidding)
