Upcoming presentations and workshops – Melbourne, Gold Coast, Sydney

During September I will be doing several conference presentations and a workshop that may be of interest to Fresh + New readers around Australia.

The Melbourne and Gold Coast presentations are aimed squarely at the museum and cultural sector, whilst my Sydney presentation is at Web Directions South, an excellent web event that draws much of this hemisphere’s web people.

If you are coming to one of these events then feel free to get in touch.

Hi Seb, looking forward to presenting with you at the Queensland event. I’m interested in what you will be presenting in Melbourne. Will you be posting your paper to the blog?
