** Networking the Russian Revolution **
This workshop is designed to try new concepts and network the feedback. Yes, there is a degree of risk involved - what if the power fails? (I think areas of Flemington were out last week) What if devices don't connect to the conference venue? So - with that in mind I have compromised on some of the things I thought of trying; altered some of the delivery just in case, but enabled the potential for my original vision of the workshop through the Twitter hashtags, this wiki and the blog The PowerPoint for today is here:
