BOOK INFO

Trailer:



Opening paragraph taken from the Damaris article @ http://www.damaris.org/content/content.php?type=5&id=669

"Salamanca, Spain. A summit of world leaders is about to begin, and the President of the United States (John Hurt) is due to make a ground-breaking speech. The media coverage is being provided by an American channel, and director Rex Brooks (Sigourney Weaver) is trying to ensure that the anti-US protests don’t distract from the historic moment and that her reporters stay on-message. In a hotel room, a man bearing the scars of a bullet wound finishes dressing and picks up his gun. He is clearly on edge as he meets with similarly dark-suited colleagues. For a few moments we don’t know if he is friend or foe, but we soon discover that he is Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid) a Secret Service agent returning to active service after a year. Yet questions remain: Why has he been off work? Why do his colleagues seem unsure whether they can really trust him? We quickly meet some of the other characters, often with similar uncertainty about what kind of people they may be. When the President is shot moments after arriving on the podium, there is chaos and, like the Secret Service agents, we have very little idea who is responsible. Now almost everybody is under suspicion."

What is a BarCamp?
BarCamps are community conferences, run by volunteers. Nobody is charged for attending a BarCamp although everyone is expected to give a presentation or lead a discussion session.
Due to the nature of the event there are a number of costs incurred which make great sponsorship opportunities for local businesses, regional tech/industry companies and international companies looking to increase their exposure amongst the Yorkshire technology, creative and digital communities.
In November 2007, Yorkshire held its first BarCamp event in Leeds, where the folks that came created a programme of sessions themselves. BarCamps are open, participatory, democratic, 'workshop' events; the organisers and sponsors simply provide wireless broadband, a venue, beverages and food. The enthusiastic attendees provide the content - and the buzz!

BarCamps are great opportunity to network and a great environment to learn about new technologies, media, thought leadership and practice from the very people that make the digital industries work each day.
This year, we plan to host a BarCamp in Bradford and we’re expecting 130 attendees from Yorkshire and across the country with live linkups with BarCamps in the US, Canada and India. We are also seeking to link in with the Bradford Animation Festival 2009 which finishes on November 14. With this in mind we will be encouraging those presenting to look at new developments in film, animation and digital media and offer a Superstar Speaker supported by an appropriate sponsor such as Google.

With that in mind we would also love to hear from anyone who is currently working on an Android app.

We'd love for you to come - if you're a creative, an artist, a writer, blogger, technologist, or a developer, geek, entrepreneur, academic researcher, gamer or investor please join us. If you were just curious and interested in digital culture - we'd love to meet you too. Come and demo, talk, share or just hang out! Follow us on TWITTER for further updates.
