Gather Town
So as to foster interactions with the other conference participants we created a virtual gathering space. You can move your little avatar with the arrow keys, and once you get close to other avatars, a video chat starts. Participants can also share their screen to show their poster, or some figures.
We have grouped posters and presentations and by themes and assigned these groups to areas on our virtual map marked by landmarks (handaxe, skull, tooth, ...). These areas are meant as starting points. If you are a presenter we suggest staying near these landmarks for the first 20 minutes so that others know where to find you — however, please feel free to wander around and explore. Bear in mind that this is both a technical and social experiment, so we will have to work this out together. You can log into gather.town using a link (we will send this out via email on Thursday). It works best using Chrome as a browser. Please read the detailed instructions on how best to use Gather Town at the bottom of this program.

ESHE members are cordially invited to take part in the virtual general assembly.
Open the website in Google Chrome. For best results, you will need a camera and microphone. If you do not have any, you should still be able to use the ‘local chat’ function to discuss with presenters, but some of the ease of conversation will be lost.
Log into Gather Town using your full name (first and last) so that people can find you.
Once you see this screen, you use the arrow keys to move your avatar around on the map.
The top right side of the screen shows the other participants. If you click on someone’s name, you can find them, and a line indicating the fastest route to that person will appear.
At the bottom right is a chat area. You can choose a local chat (only those people near you will see the conversation) or a global chat (everyone will see what you say). Please use the local chat as a general rule.
Across the bottom middle is a small grey menu bar. From the left,
As you get near to other avatars, the video and sound from that person will appear across the top of your screen. The wider you have your interaction radius set, the more people you can interact with at the same time.
