Andy JacksonNew blog post: Tightrope - an iPRES 2024 trip report https://anjackson.net/2025/01/05/tightrope/ #DigiPres #iPRES2024
Bertrand Caron@anj thank you Andy for this fantastic blog post. Never read something that was so close to my own iPRES experiences. I'm very grateful to you for sharing that.
@BertrandCaron aw thank you Bertrand. That means a lot to me.
Christian Sievers@anj @BertrandCaron thanks for the frank and heartfelt post. I was a first timer at iPres, so I can definitely relate. Makes me happy I’m sort of part of this scene.
@cusie thank you Christian, that's a lovely thing to hear. I hope to see you at a future iPRES!
Roxana Maurer (Popistașu)@anj Thank you for a very thorough and thought-provoking report, Andy! It always amazes me to see the disconnect between what one feels (if I hear about it) and how one appears, as you are one of the best speakers I had the chance to listen to. I guess I should have known better, since people congratulate me for things like the DPA speech, when few know that I wear black because I sweat like in a sauna (hello, anxiety-induced sweating) or that my hands tremble like crazy on such occasions...
@RoxPoNinja thank you for the kind words Roxana, much appreciated. I'd never picked up on those nerves when you speak either! I think was a pretty poor and very obviously nervous speaker when I first joined this community (ask @BarbaraSierman !) so it's nice to know I've made some progress.
