    • IG: Michael Seto
    • IG: Tom Hollenstein
    • IG: Victor
      • Coming!
    • IG: Andrew Benedict-Nelson (DMed me 6 months ago, been to a few salons, very smart, generous, mostly focused on collaborations across disciplines as it relates to healthcare, academia, and industry; had a great chat with him 6 months ago and... never followed up)
      • Coming!
    • IG: Micheal Nielson
    • IG: Joe Edelman (totally cold DM but he's interesting to me because he's considering using "tools for thought" as "tools for feeling"; he has a presentation that JUST popped up in my Serendipity Roam extension on building a "second heart" rather than a second brain. Cheesy, yes, but I have been thinking a long time about how these tools need to go beyond simply language-based sharing. He doesn't go that far at all, he just thinks we should basically be documenting and sharing more about how we feel, what we value, and most importantly, the people we most connect with, are grateful for, and so on. It might be an interesting perspective to bring in)
      • Coming! (with caveat that he's in Berlin and will need to leave after 1.5 hours... because he's a BABY)
    • IG: Hanneke

    • IG: Bruce Homer (professor of education at CUNY, old grad school friend in cognitive science program - only one I stay in touch with; uses tech to leverage collaborative learning very successfully; and his prof pal, Jan, same background, but German and extremely smart)
      • says, "I should be able to join" and invited Jan Plaas, his colleague/friend and super fun prof
    • IG: Robert Haisfield
