Science Online 2012 was "Live Scribed" which meant that for most (all?) sessions, someone was making a drawing which built a stylized visually rich picture of the concepts being developed in the room. The results are here. Maggie Pingolt took those pictures, but I think someone else also photographed the boards.

Next step: Developing the metadata, presentation, archive and access for this project; Also, I want to see parallel LiveScribes, with more than one per session.

Here's the ScienceOnline2012 SciScribing page where you can see a slide show.
