For example, at last convention, all the artist-talks of the exhibition where
scheduled at the same time as the sprint, and all of DorkBot-Montréal was
scheduled at the same time as the sprint as well. I'm pretty sure I recall
that an extra roundtable was improvised at the same time as the sprint too,
which was also at the same time as the artist talks. It doesn't stop there:
in the morning, there was an outage of the Angrignon line because of a crack
in boulevard de Maisonneuve, so all papers of the morning had to be postponed
by over 30 minutes and then you have to account for the time it takes to walk
to SAT, so, in practice, my last paper overlapped with three other things. To
top it off, I discovered that there was an extra pd performance (by Sylvie
Chénard) that was completely outside of the convention, and to walk there in
time I had to leave before the scheduled end of the sprint.
I forgot: the vernissage of pd works at PFOAC was also running from 14:30
to 17:00, thus overlapping both the artist talks and all of dorkbot, and
thus the sprint overlapped it completely, and again it took some walking
to get there and back.
I went to several conferences in which almost any talk was scheduled at
the same time as several others, but it's not the same: in those events, i
never really felt the need to be attending several different things at
once.
