during week but not the weekend next year?
The Academy of Media Arts (KHM) in Cologne, where the next conference
is planned to be, is much smaller than the TU Berlin. Additionally the
KHM is in a different part of town from the main Cologne University.
As the conference must happen during the semester break, there might
even be more LAC people at the KHM than students. So while Cologne
won't be as centered around one place as in Karlsruhe, it will still
be a bit cozier than Berlin and won't have that many stairs to climb
or large avenues to cross.
Actually, in Berlin it was also the semester break, so I wonder how many of
the casual visitors were actually students, just happening to pass by on the
way to another lecture. Perhaps it was more a case of there being less
competition for other events on week days in Berlin.
sincerely,
Marije
