xkcd nails a certain problem that I have. Yesterday, I didn't sleep at all when normal people slept. I was up all night, then went to sleep from noon until 6pm, then napped in the evening. Now I'm up at 7:30am. Fuck knows what my sleep pattern will be tonight. Note to Santa: check blog/EVE Online/IM/Twitter status for activity before attempting delivery. This sleep thing reminds me that if I'm going to go back to university next year, I'll have to get my sleep pattern back to something approaching normal. Alas, our public transport system has no facility for coping with those of us who sleep in ways other people would consider fucked up. 2007-12-24T07:35:31ZUntitled entry permalink

Just so people know, I am still working hard on getting organised. Hopefully I will be in the position to announce the venue and date very soon. All I can say is: don't book anything major or non-negotiable for weekends in February. Christmas and New Year has slowed down the organisation process of getting sponsors and so on as seemingly everybody except myself is too busy eating mince pies and celebrating a certain person's birthday.

I am looking for sponsors for the event. The major thing we need is food sponsorships - breakfasts, lunch and snacks for the event. If your company is interested in sponsoring the event, please feel free to e-mail me: tom@tommorris.org and we can discuss the amounts necessary.

I'm deliberately keeping the event low-budget - because the star of the show is not the t-shirts or the food, but what you - dear participant - have to show. Based on sponsor interest, we will scale up what we do.

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to the wiki but please note that this is not a signup page. It's just listing interest so we can plan the event. I'm hoping we will have a sign up page ready to go in the first week or so of January.

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.
