Yesterday’s Picnic at night was the finishing touch of PICNIC ’06. Amsterdam’s first-ever annual event focused on creativity in cross media content and technology, specifically in the fields of entertainment and communication.
Lots and lots of money has been put in by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, City of Amsterdam and off-course Corporate Business.
I hope the conference itself was better than the closing night. On paper / In concept it looked promising but in practice it didn’t work. To much noise, bad acoustics, bad performances and all the different art pieces didn’t get the space (time-money-practice) to do their “thing”.
That’s ok, reach high, learn from your mistakes and do better next time around.
I’ll see what the archived streams will uncover and hope that xolo.tv will have some great interviews. If the elevator pitches and the day impressions are any indication…
