NerdNite

Thanks to all those who attended NerdNite at the Middlesex in Cambridge last night. Great crowd and wonderful questions. I wish I had time to answer them all! Upon several requests, I’ve converted my PowerPoint presentation to a QuickTime file (.mov). The audio and video clips are extracted, but the images are intact. Click here for a copy of my presentation.

Props to Jeremy @NerdNite who made sure everything ran smoothly, including coming equipped with a computer nerd’s kit full of A/V cables and connectors! And thanks to Brandon for a hilarious introduction to the science of optical illusions. I’m *still* seeing pink lines on the page, as promised!

I met lots of wonderful people, including Ethan Gilsdorf, the author of Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks, a touching, humorous, intriguing story about Ethan’s D&D childhood and later return to fantasy and other alt.life experiences as an adult. He told me the book comes out in paperback this fall, so get it and read it if you haven’t already!
