[Sw-l] SignWriting Symposium 2024 registration is open

[Steve Slevinski]

Hi SignWriting List,

SignWriting is 50 years old in 2024.  Amazing!  Valerie and her work are 
a worldwide treasure!

To celebrate, we've decided to have another SignWriting Symposium. We 
have a new format this year.  Rather than trying to have live 
presentations, we're asking our presenters to submit their presentation 
videos ahead of time.  For each day of the symposium, Val and I will 
introduce the videos for the day and then make those videos public.  
We'll also be reading comments and answering questions from the community.

Register by May 15, 2024
Videos, slides, and papers due by June 15, 2024
SignWriting Symposium 2024 is July 15-18, 2024

    July 15th will focus on Education.
    July 16th will focus on Literature.
    July 17th will focus on Research.
    July 18th will focus on Software.


If you'd like to participate, there are three ways: Presentations, 
Comments, and Questions.

First, you can present your work in education, literature, research, and 
software.  Please fill out the registration form and we'll be in touch.  
For each presentation  we are offering the opportunity to have a quick 
chat in either English or ASL.  We'll meet online and you can tell us a 
bit about yourself and your work.  We'll release these before the 
symposium as a teaser to the official symposium. Unfortunately, we are 
unable to arrange interpreters so if you'd still like to chat, we 
encourage you to arrange your own interpreters to bring along.

Second, you can submit a comment related to SignWriting.  During the 
daily symposium introductions, we'll read your comments.

Third, you can ask a question.  During the daily symposium 
introductions, we'll read a few questions and answer the best we can.
* Questions: https://forms.gle/3n4RY5u2hef1jqyC9

I hope lots of people choose to participate.  We are really curious 
about your work and we are continually amazed by what we find.

Regards,
-Steve
