I fly out to Austin for SXSW tomorrow, a day early, but then the craziness starts in earnest soon after. Heading down? Hit me up on Twitter and maybe we’ll meet up.

I wasn’t super excited about a lot of the proposed panels at first, but with a little digging I’ve found a significant number of events that will really make the most of my Gold pass.

I’m going to attempt to attend the following:

• Death of the Textbook, Emergence of Games
• U.S. Military’s Mad Science Revealed
• Stop the Bleeding! Immersive Simulations for Surgeons
• Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey
• 39-A: Een Reisverhaal Van Eindeloos (A Travel Tale of Interminable)

And that’s just the first day and a half or so! Definitely can’t wait. See you there!
