39. Consideration for Researchers
The talks usually look & sound good.
Quality can vary though.
Unfortunately, the interesting stuff is
mostly hidden behind NDAs!

40. Researchers are, on the whole, enthusiastically embraced

42. Consideration for Researchers
… though you may hit the A words!
(A for Academic—“how will I use this in my work?”—or Art “isn’t this just art?” )
Non-paper conferences can’t help
a university either, unfortunately.
