At various conferences and events I attend I have posted a series of 'live blog' style Tweets/Posts on X. Given that X posts are no longer publicly available without an account, and many people prefer to avoid the platform, I have reproduced verbatim below my tweets from the Community Media Association 2023 Festival held on on 28th October 2023.I have left in errors from the original post, and there will be some formatting errors due to the manual process of converting the content, further edits will be made in the future to fix these formatting errors and to embed the couple of missing video clips (once I work out a simple way of doing this.)
