some of the SRL crew are doing other things for the festival besides the SRL show... for those attending there's also Eric Paulos' Interactive City Summit starting next monday:

Interactive City Summit 2006
ISEA2006

7-8 August 2006
Swedish American Hall
San Francisco, CA

www.urban-atmospheres.net/ICSummit2006/

The event is free and open to the public. Registration is required.

The Interactive City Summit is centered around a series of open forum
debates, situation room lunches, public votes, and open microphone
sessions. Initiating this discussion will be a series of provocative
voices challenging us to re-think our beliefs and expectations of the
emerging Interactive City:

Malcolm McCullough (University of Michigan)

Matt Jones (Nokia Design)

ReBar

Mirjam Struppek (Urban Screens)

Trokia

In addition, we want you to inspire us. During registration,
individuals and groups from all facets of the community are invited
to propose their own rapid fire vision presentation for the Summit.

Be a part of the inception of a new vision on urban life -- attend,
contribute, and have a voice.

This summit is held in conjunction with ISEA2006 and its Interactive
City theme with the results of the summit being featured at the ISEA
Symposium on 11 August.
