FlashForward 2006

Submitted by blprnt on Fri, 2006-03-03 20:28.

I'm sitting in a cafe a few blocks from the train station in Seattle waiting to head home. I spoke yesterday at FlashForward to an audience of about 500 people, who actually seemed to stay awake as I rambled on about Genetic Algorithms and Neural Networks.

 Thanks to everyone who attended - it was very rewarding to talk to a lot of you after the session. If you have comments (good or bad), please feel free to e-mail me, and to give feedback to Lynda.com.

I will be posting source code for everything I talked about yesterday over the weekend, and will also put up a version of the presentation for anyone to check out.

I thought yours was one of the best talks. I left it inspired, perhaps a little too inspired actually. I now have a head full of project ideas and barely the time to start a single one.

I am really glad that you

I am really glad that you liked it. It seems from the e-mails I've been getting that a lot of people gleaned something from it.

I am almost always in the situation you describe - too many ideas and not enough time. All you can do is pick one that you like and run with it. You may very well end up at a dead end, but you'll undoubtedly learn something in the process. 

It was my first time at FFWD - I'd like to speak again but a lot of that depends on if they hear back from people who enjoyed the session. If you have a couple of minutes, you can fill out their feedback form....

Hi, Jeremy.

I also wanted to say thanks for your talk. I really enjoyed it and have that same problem of trying to grow some fruit from it..given the limited time and focus I seem to constantly suffer from. I decided one thing, which is to start learning how to use processing.org with my 9-yr old daughter...so we're exploring that together. I'm a wannabe geek, but like geeky stuff like you presented just the same.

I did say hi to you after your talk...I live across the water in Victoria and wondered if anyone is doing GA on this side. Anyway, I've linked your rss feed ( I think ) and hope to start following your blog when time permits.

Thanks again for inspiring us.
