Additionally there were some (at least 12 actively participating) virtual attendees with one virtual presenter from Labatte University in the US – sadly we didn’t manage to make effective contact with another virtual presenter. We even had two representatives from JISC helping out in the labs and a cast of many Anglia people who helped make the day go well.
We had live internet access in the Mumford, where we were presenting, wireless in the Helmore venue and online access via guest logins for 70 people. We had a rapidly updated web page with programme details and live streaming media for the virtual visitors of the presentations. We also replicated some of this information on a display board on the Anglia Ruskin Second Life Island where details were updated live via a database and web interface.
There were 12 demonstrations or practical sessions during two hours of ‘hands on’ participation. At one time there were at least 50 people online using Second Life simultaneously in the laboratories of Digital Sciences and Technology. We were blessed with a ‘good SL day’ and network bandwidth that was surprisingly good for such a high density of activity.
Video footage of speakers and a ‘photo montage’ are available on the INSPIRE website MML08 at Anglia
