I’m off to a play reading this evening. If all goes according to plan, I shall fulfill a lifelong ambition to be a Wurzel, albeit an ancient Greek one.

Auckland

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

I shall be in Auckland from 3 July to 8 July for something called NACCQ, which I am attending in my capacity as a guy who was nearby when one of the intended speakers realised he couldn’t go to NACCQ and Europe at the same time. I shall be giving a powerpoint presentation about Computer Science Unplugged, and likely attending many exciting sessions on the forward-looking and inspirational topic of whatever NACCQ is about. It seems to be something to do with computing qualifications, so I hope they don’t get me started on the NCEA.

I’ll have some free time before and after the conference, so let me know if you’d like to hang out in Auckland during that period.
