[Subtle Technologies]
is not narrow but wide open, very dialectical, provocative,
and we had breathing room. It's very important to me, these
days, that I can be in a smaller scale event where I get a chance
to meet everyone, hear everyone talk, and get a feeling that
everyone came not just to speak but to be present, participate,
and form a kind of community of debate and thinking, over the
span of the weekend. -- Johannes Birringer, 2001 presenter.
The
chance to meet so many great artists and thinkers is too good
to pass up. It is rare to see such open stimulation among
people from so many different backgrounds. -- George Maglios,
2001 presenter.
The
conference was un-commercial, informal, and grew out of a
real need for a nonacademic outlet for heartfelt values held
by a remarkable segment: people who know or use science or
technology, and connect it to a need to understand the world
of feelings and meaning. -- Dr. Bill Marks, 2001 presenter.
I
learned a lot, got valuable feedback on my work, and left
feeling inspired and just good about humanity in general.
-- Liane Gabora, 2000 presenter.
People
were accessible, conversations and contacts were carried over
into the break periods. This is the best way to create networks.
Face to face. -- Kathleen Rogers, 2001 presenter.
I
thought the diversity and depth of the talks at Subtle Technologies
were outstanding and I will highly recommend the conference
to my scientific colleagues.-- Scott Menary, 2000 presenter.
