Friday Informal Talks
Friday evening at 7:30 PM Bruce Beford, of the Springfield Telescope Makers, will conduct the informal talks in the Flanders Pavilion. This is always a fun session, with convention attendees speaking on a wide range of serious and not not-so-serious topics.
If you wish to contribute a short talk during this session, you must submit a brief description of your planned presentation using the form below. Talks are limited to 10 minutes and 20 slides. The time limit will be strictly enforced!
Speakers must check in at 7:00 pm. Because we hope to wrap up the informal talks in time to allow speakers and guests to observe on Friday evening you should register early (below). If you haven't registered by one week before convention, you may not get to speak.
A digital projector will already be connected to a Windows laptop computer for display of presentations.
All speakers are encouraged to bring their presentations on a USB drive for display.
PowerPoint presentations or PDF slideshows are welcome. Please include any special requests or concerns in the comments field, and we will contact you.
