The locations of this festival <span lang=\"de\">Wachturm<\/span> and <span xml:lang=\"de\" lang=\"de\">Kunstfabrik<\/span> were excellent and I think the whole thing worked out really fine.

I\u2019ve been there last year and enjoyed it quite a bit. This year, Katie Walsh and I will host a session, to which I am looking forward very much. Except for the fact that we have been put into the last time slot of the conference: Friday 16:50\u201318:30. I wonder how many people will make it through a whole week of dense and stimulating sessions, beverage-laden evening programmes and then still attend some session late Friday afternoon, when they <del>sh<\/del><ins>c<\/ins>ould be heading home to tea and biscuit\u2026<br \/>\nOn Saturday, though, I will finally enter port: Oslo. <em>*sigh*<\/em> And there I will stay with only one interruption until the end of the year.
