I’ve been to banff/canada for a week to attend the international conference on interactive tabletops and surfaces 2009. Apart from the high quality of that conference, there were a lot of social happenings with the researchers, e.g. having interesting and productive talks while enjoying canadian beer in some of the beautiful pubs and restaurants in banff. Also the banquet with banquet speaker Chia Shen was great. I haven’t had such a delicious dinner so far and i’m pretty sure that it was quite expensive.. Thank goodness it was paid by the conference hehe

Oh and the view onto toronto at night (from the airplane) is soo beautiful.

On tuesday i presented results of my research from the university of augsburg and of course i was quite nervous hehe. Here are some pictures of my presentation and talk afterwards.

I was lucky enough to attend the "German-Israeli Minerva School for Ubiquitous Display Environments" from end of august on and it was a great experience to learn from the lectures and different cultures. It was also an experience to see how other researchers move towards possible solutions within the workshop and collaboratively create and work on ideas. Many thanks to all the responsible staff at this place. Oh and really delicious food…
And of course (a little late) here are some impressions i took with my camera hehe..
