Great conference poster!
If they can reproduce half the excitement from the first one, it should be great.
I attended Tuscon 1994 as a wide-eyed undergraduate, had an amazing experience with a crazy congeries of strange and brilliant people. One minute I’d be talking to paranormal researchers in the back of a cab, the next I’d be at a talk by Koch on his work with Francis Crick.
The excitement bubbled forth, multiple high-activity listservers were created to continue the conversation, the journals Psyche and Journal of Consciousness studies were born there, so overall, a pretty productive conference.
