This was a super fun event. I especially liked the silly putty computer interface concept and of course the pizza! A lot of interesting conversations about AI of course.

Sloomoo after dark was indeed a lot of fun. I did a little write-up about it actually. The slime interface that Louie Pecan made was a highlight. Here’s a photo of a certain filmmaker operating it.
