Screencasts

We are proud to present full-length screencasts of the lectures held during the PASI in Valparaíso. These consist of video of the speaker’s computer screen (slides, animations, etc.), with the audio of the lecture room. Most of these videos captured the sound with the built-in microphone of the presenter’s laptop. Thanks to Anush Krishnan (Prof. Barba’s PhD student) for his hard work for the production of these screencasts.

Discussion Group

A Google group was created for informal exchanges among students and other participants to the PASI in Chile. We hope that this can continue to be active after the event, if only for occasional announcements of interest to the group that met in Valparaiso for the two intense PASI weeks.
