Devcon VII closing ceremony
Alt text taken from X: "Photo from my sitting position, two rows ahead of me visible, a (somewhat dark) red hat on the row immediately in front, with barnabe the row ahead of them, with a red stage ahead of him (pink IRL)
On stage we have two 0xPARC fellas on either side, and between them we have Nick from Long Now Foundation (left side of photo) and Aya Miyaguchi from Ethereum Foundation (right side of photo)
"strange feelings" to say the least
Behind them on screen is a photo of Nick's neighbour on stage, a founder of the Long Now Foundation, as a rather old man, with a photo behind him, which is black and white and shows a fair few fairly young men being amazed by "computing", dated 1984
I like the photo since there is a sense of space and layering and time and in some sense even prayer"
