Did you ever put up the video of Blaise Aguera y Arcas’ lecture? I’d love to watch it but can’t find it anywhere on your site.
I collect Seadragon and Photosynth demos and lectures and would love to download your original video file if you have it on an ftp server. If not, I await seeing a web version of the video.
Sadly I had very limited and unclear recording of Blaise Aguera y Arcas’ lecture. I had attended it and loved it, will try and dig out the footage if I can find it.
Cheers
