James Wallis sinks Azeroth's barge in style

A couple days back, James Wallis posted about the Interesting 2008 unconference and it sounded, well, interesting:

Saturday was the day of Interesting 08, the second unconference organised by Russell Davies (no T on this boy) at Conway Hall in London. Thirty speakers gave talks on subjects close to their hearts, the only common linking theme that the topics were—and the speakers should be—interesting. Possibly it was the best not-a-conference conference I’ve ever been to.

Today, he's posted a video of his presentation, and it is, quite simply, brilliant:

Of especial interest to any and all science geeks, and any/all World of Warcraft players. Or people who know such players and want ammunition in order to better take the piss. Just watch it, it's worth it. Video was taken by another presenter, Roo Reynolds, who did his talk on Lego, he's got quite a lot of it. He's also listed several of the other presenters., some of which definitely look interesting.

There's something which I think beats it for geeky coolness though. A visual arts and communication student gave a presentation on his final project (he got a first). It's made of more win than a thousand cats wearing glam rock jumpsuits and dancing to Prince Charming.

That is kinda cool. I might post it later.
