Conference: In person and open to the public (register here<\/a>)<\/h2>\n

Conference Sessions (Vancouver)<\/strong>: Each in-person session will last 50 minutes. Presentations should be ~25 minutes, and each talk will be followed by a 20-25-minute Q&A. The objective will be to allow for sustained conversation and discussion about each paper. We hope that the conversations we begin during presentations will continue during breaks between sessions and flow into our shared meals and other time together.<\/p>\n

The way we gather matters. Gatherings consume our days and help determine the kind of world we live in, in both our intimate and public realms. Gathering—the conscious bringing together of people for a reason—shapes the way we think, feel , and make sense of our world.

We hope the “Listening with the Eyes” gathering will be nothing like the average conference. We envision friendly chats over tasty food, time to let ideas steep, and intentionality in our collective attention to each presentation. We look forward to generative discussions, generous engagements, and making the most of our time to think together.<\/p>\n
