Is UNC Chapel Hill using Panopto cameras to covertly surveil Native professors in their classrooms? Of course they are! insidehighered.com/news/faculty-i…

@drmaxlwilson @acm_chi Yeah I think going semi-pro would be totally adequate! Nice guide :D
English
@deadroxy @acm_chi i have recommendations for how people should do hybrid on a limited budget, but its not professional style. still lots of attempts from workshops at chi2024 to do adhoc hybrid realised its extremely hard to do well. here's my guide: @drmaxlwilson/a-low-budget-hybrid-guide-for-small-conferences-5819b8aae1b8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@drmaxlwilson/…
English
Would love to know more about how @acm_chi spent that $1M on hybrid in 2022. Virtual experience of #chi2024 really lacks synchronous participation possibilities, but lots could be learned from how this is done well at gaming & streaming conferences. I'm ready to lend a hand👋🏾
Max L. Wilson@drmaxlwilson
@kashtodi Q) is CHI going to do hybrid A) we've tested hybrid a lot. we spent $1M on it for #chi2022 and it still wasnt great. #chi2024 theres lots of discussions sitll in this area.

Star Con II @theurquanmaster is one of the best games ever made. Played the crap out of it with my bro & we are beyond hype for the sequel after two decades waiting. Back the Kickstarter too and help make the legendary voice-overs a reality for Free Stars! kickstarter.com/projects/pisto…
English
@drmaxlwilson @acm_chi There's definitely a scale issue. But conferences like TwitchCon/PAX/GDC are even more massive and do it well. Also, would be reasonable to only offer partial hybrid, say on main tracks. There's challenges, but it's doable with the right folks on board!
English
@drmaxlwilson @acm_chi This is a really thorough post - thanks! I agree that balancing the experience for roomers and zoomers is key. I think we need to lean into this more rather than say some early experiments were pricey and challenging. If any conference can do it well it *should* be CHI :]

@deadroxy @acm_chi This is my post on the modes. @drmaxlwilson/doing-hybrid-thoughts-after-chi2022-ed1db3ccd2f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@drmaxlwilson/…
Broadcast mode I think is very easy. But the increasing democratisation of engagement from remote and in person needs a lot of resource to enable properly. Too much to add value over impact on people in room.
English
@drmaxlwilson @acm_chi Would like to read that! Significant on the ground AV crew is essential, but it feels like the tech platforms chosen were a miss, and there's not enough training or moderation support. Seems like pre-production coordination needs streamlining. DiGRA & TwitchCon both do it right!
English
@deadroxy @acm_chi My understanding is mostly human resource for AV crew and hardware (40 additional AV staff for a week maybe?), as well as increased bandwidth for 22 parallel tracks. All for around 5 different modes of sync hybrid (I have a blog analysis this). But I was not directly involved.
