Thanks Guys, 

Replies one by one below,

>Simon,

All of those people have now been personally invited and some have actually

already registered.

Hmm... hadn't thought about the Aarnet thing. Will look into it. They do

have some facilities for video-streaming the event already set up, but it's

a matter of the facilities costs/time/staff/benefit. I'll check. We will be

filming the presentations and placing them on the website soon after the

event (at the very least).

Liam, I'm hoping you'll be looking at this in the broader (global)
perspective with GLAM being the icebreaker. 

Aarnet is the NREN in OZ with one in other countries. 

Try guido or jason(on their staff register on their site). I've already
suggested a link up from BA to Oz for wikimania.

Closer to you is http://www.arcs.org.au/about 

which if you drill into will take you to intersect and a few local unis.
They'll trust you.

 

If you're filming then all they need to provide is an input/output to the
network (and maybe you'll provide an email, twitter or forum to handle
feedback). If you wanted to open this up, then you could talk to arno van
der kraan at
http://sydney.sae.edu/en-gb/news/421/SAE_Institute_Supports_Local_Community
about sending a few students to look after the AV into aarnet (and provide
the equipment). I've introduced arno and guido, re: BA.

BTW. sae's version of arcs-type tools look like this.

The "sell" is that we are all moving from one (media/education) model to
another and the only way we'll progress is by "doing it".

Sarah, Great news about Roxanne (and nice to see the girls are arm
wrestling). 

If you want to plant a seed in the librarian community you might ask the
question. 

Why shouldn't the library catalog be an encyclopaedia? 

http://www.oclc.org/programsandresearch/parcasts/default.htm

 

 

Angela, 

Hopefully Wayne will come (and talk about his doc above).

Anne Hurley from www.commsalliance.com.au may be interested.(although not a
speaker).

And John Butterworth from the AIMIA (interactive media industry
association)could use the education.

Lastly marktf from education.au should be interested.

I'll beat the bushes in the mass media space (my bro is at the financial
review). But I have to leave these kinds of contacts to you, cause I'm far
to ancient to be considered "cool"(or is that "bad").

All the best, simon

Liam,



I’m happy to se you guys moving things along.

Just a few people who may be influential.

At the National library. Warwick Cathro.

Roxanne Missingham from this list.
http://www.aph.gov.au/DPS/Administration.htm



A bit left field but someone from this group

http://www.finance.gov.au/about-the-department/agimo.html

just so they consider a wiki when they start to add apps to this area.

http://www.australia.gov.au/about/whats-new



http://www.socialinclusion.gov.au/Compact/Pages/default.aspx

for obvious reasons

Not sure if you want to consider this.

Have suggested to Brianna about linking (live) between BA and other global
spots like Sydney, etc

Maybe the guys at aarnet might be interested in linking between Canberra,
other aussie places and San fran.

It’s a promotional opportunity for them.



Here’s a starting point.
http://www.aarnet.edu.au/upcoming-events/ozeconferences.aspx

Might help broaden things out of Canberra.



All the best,

simonf

Hey Simon,

Can't speak for the others so will leave that for Liam but Roxanne
Missingham is one of my contacts and she's been invited and will be coming
(though she tells me her colleagues are fighting over who gets to go!).

Cheers,
Sarah

[Wikimediaau-l] GLAM-WIKI needs you!

[Liam Wyatt]

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, (wikimedia-au,
chapters-cultural-partnerships, foundation-l)

The event that you have (hopefully) heard about, "Galleries, Libraries,
Archives, Museums and Wikimedia: finding the common ground" is coming along
apace!

This is a Wikimedia Australia event, a world first for the Wikimedia
movement, to bring together the cultural sector with the Wikimedia community
to work out ways we can better collaborate I hope that it will form the
basis for a long and productive global conversation over the years. It is to
be held in Canberra at the Australian National War Memorial on the first
Thursday and Friday of August. Did I mention it's free?

See all the details here: glam.wikimedia.org.au
(a tentative schedule will be published soon)

Simply put - interest from the GLAM sector has been fantastic. In the one
week since the registrations opened we have now allocated 25% of the seats
(since about 10 minutes ago). This includes several federal government
politicians/their advisers, directors of major institutions, representatives
of national peak bodies and people from at least 4 countries. Seriously -
I'm actually getting registration emails every few minutes at the moment,
from some BIG names...

But! The number of Wikimedians for those people to discuss the finer points
with are still quite small. I really hope we can put on a good showing and
demonstrate the diversity of skills and level of engagement in our
community. Just as much as I hope the GLAM sector will learn from us, I hope
that we can learn from them - and this required 2-way participation.

So - if you have an interest in the cultural sector, and can make it to
Canberra, Australia you would be most welcome to attend. If you can't,
perhaps you'd like to follow along at the "Museums & Wikimedia" Museum3.0
Ning  page. If on twitter
please use the phrase "GLAM-WIKI "
(with the hyphen).

Sincerely,
(a very excited, and a little bit scared) Liam [[witty lama]]
VP Wikimedia Australia
