It was informative and clear. My only 'complaint' was that we seemed to need more of your time for Q&A! ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for answering my query about piano recording. I am exploring the option that you advised me on - doing the instrumental and vocals separately.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17690994771333716730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-17416225426917309992009-03-01T21:42:00.000+08:002009-03-01T21:42:00.000+08:00Hi Ivan! Glad you're now onboard the barcamp "feve...Hi Ivan! <BR/><BR/>Glad you're now onboard the barcamp "fever". It sure is much more fun and engaging as compared to other similar sessions. It takes effort not just from the speakers but also the participants. Everyone should play an active role at barcamp. <BR/><BR/>If there were more tweeters and liveblogger around, I'm sure we can even bring in participation that's unable to make it to barcamp physically. Perhaps for the next one, we can get volunteers to station in each room and send live updates via tweet too.<BR/><BR/>Will share more about my thoughts on barcamp on my blog soon. Do pop by too ya. :P <BR/><BR/>(learning from you leh... ermm the shameless plugging part? *lol*)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-1888095282895346462009-03-01T16:16:00.000+08:002009-03-01T16:16:00.000+08:00Thanks for having me, Preetam. And thanks for the ...Thanks for having me, Preetam. And thanks for the clarification. I like the "teach me" example. <BR/><BR/>There's really a lot that goes on at a Barcamp. Definitely a lot more participatory that the typical conference. A lot more fun too, I feel. Yet the learning is no less serious. <BR/><BR/>I wonder if the next session needs more publicity on "How Barcamp Works". Maybe loosen the "geek" part (which may create some stereotypes). At least I think that's how it can work in Singapore. <BR/><BR/>I'm definitely alot more interested in Barcamp SG, now that I've tried out one and you've explained more. If you think I can be of any help for the next one (not necessarily as a speaker), let me know!Ivan Chewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727226573817276108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-50474806841572561492009-03-01T12:41:00.000+08:002009-03-01T12:41:00.000+08:00Ivan first of all thanks for coming and presenting...Ivan first of all thanks for coming and presenting. <BR/><BR/>I wanted to add some details to the selection process. While it is true that only the titles go on to the voting board, the candidates are encouraged to canvass - i.e. they walk around with their computers open showing couple of slides to the attendees to try to get their votes. Usually there is a pitching session before the actual voting where all the presenters get to do a 1 min pitch of their topic. Unfortunately, we had to skip the pitching session yesterday as we did not have enough rooms. We will do this the next time.<BR/><BR/>If lets say a topic gets 2 votes, the person may get a classroom to present but they can always take the 2 interested people to one of the open areas and do their presentation. <BR/><BR/>Also, one needn't be an expert. A lot of barcamp sessions are discussions and even teach me type of sessions. At a recent barcamp in JB, one of the topic was "Teach me Wordpress". The person who posted the topic was the learner, the people who knew about wordpress were the attendees. and they shared their wordpress expertise in the class.rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294177410235585704noreply@blogger.com
