Format
A couple of points about the format of reboot9
This is an attempt to deconstruct the planned format of reboot9. Also available are changes from last year.
Keynotes
Session where we all listen
Talks
Sessions where we listen in three different rooms
Conversations
Sessions where one or a couple of people has taken on the responsibility of being the host but where all the action is p2p.
Demos
Sessions where lot's of projects, initiatives, ideas, companies, products get's demoed in a short time frame.
Dinners
Day one of reboot will be a giant dinner in the main hall of reboot with digital entertainment and happenings all evening. Day2 is dinner on your own money around town with some of the new people you've met at reboot.
A circle
The main hall of reboot will be setup as a giant circle to focus the energy (in fact it was planned to be that last year, but the logistics turned the other way).
Party
Day two sports the reboot afterparty.
Bar
Our friendly crew from Kedelhallen has a bar serving soda water, beer, wine, etc. throughout the event. Water and coffee is included in the price.
50% conference, 50% unconference
Allthough we love the meme of unconferences it's not new to reboot. reboot has been a flirt between selforganisation and organisation the last couple of years. From the openspace format of reboot5 with 600 people with no agenda and only two speakers, the combined openspace and 7 speakers format of reboot6, to the pretty much one way format of reboot7 with 43 speakers. So yeah, hopefully we're gonna nail the right mix this year ;)
50% broadcast, 50% interactivity
100% informal
Last year reboot learned that one of it's core values is it's informal vibe.
100% humble
We're building on the shoulders of giants. No alpha male i've seen the next next unique thing, aren't i clever at reboot.
Service personnel
History teacher, facilitator, dj, host and crew.
No easy answers or realities, only data for creating your own reality
If you want a 10 point list of how to make money or just wanna eat easy realities and not contribute and challenge the thinking yourself, you will not like reboot.
