[Corpora-List] Conference Proceedings on Youtube or Other Online Media

[Erp, M.G.J. van]

Hi Muhammad,

You may also find some relevant talks at http://videolectures.net/

I think it would be nice if this would become more standard in our field, but there is indeed the added cost for the organisers.

grtz,
Marieke

Dear Muhammad,

When the facilities and staff are available to record sessions at conferences, post-process the recordings and organise them for upload, they tend to be presented openly. I have a suspicion this can be prohibitively expensive, especially when there are many parallel sessions. For conferences online, sites like Techtalks often offer some presentations, and you can (for example) find the NAACL 2013 talks there.

  http://techtalks.tv/naacl/2013/

Some researchers have taken the creative initiative of leaving their laptop on their front-row seat to record their presentation, also, with varying success.

All the best,


Leon

Now that Internet and communication (specially media like Youtube) are so popular and cheap, I was wondering whether it is possible to provide conference proceedings (key speakers' addresses etc.) online. The idea must have been there in other minds and I might be ignorant of appropriate website(s)/ link(s) where some of such (video/ audio) proceedings are available.
