Energies are
growing to bring conferencing back to ConFest – like the early ConFests – where
speakers and discussion sessions were vibrant, with thought-action extending as
an integral aspect of the ConFest experience.
How would you
like to facilitate and/or participate/enable in any of the themes below? Or
others of your own choosing?
To encourage
communing and exchange, all presentations and discussions panels and the like
may allow plenty of time for open large and small discussions.
Or you may want
to organise an All-Coffee
Break Conference. It’s a common experience that coffee breaks
are the best aspect of conferences. So create a time and a place for an
open-theme open agenda All-Coffee-Break Conference.
Often the
volunteers’ food and refreshments area at ConFest spontaneously takes on the
form of All-Coffee-Break Conference. The same thing happens in the ConFest
Market and at the ConFest Beach.
Conference
process boards will be alongside the workshop boards. There’ll be scope to link
up with other participants for panels and hypotheticals.

post your interests on this ConFest site.
