This is a very cool "face-to-face" conferencing technology, which, instead of a video image on a screen, projects a more-or-less holographic image of a person into the conference room (or auditorium) itself, allowing the "virtual" person to look the people actually in the room in the eye, and vice versa.

One of the hats I wear here at the Center for American and International Law (until a few months ago known as the Southwestern Legal Foundation), in addition to Vice President, is Director of the Center's Institute for Transnational Arbitration (ITA). ITA is a membership-based division of the Center. It proudly counts among its 175 members many of the leading international arbitrators, counsel and firms in the world. It is, I understand, the premier such organization in the world. Each year in June the ITA presents a Workshop in connection with its annual membership meetings in Dallas, customarily at the Westin Galleria. Customarily the Workshop includes a mock arbitration, presented in a series of scenes acted out by prominent international arbitrators and counsel. The idea is that we not only educate and discuss, but also demonstrate, how important issues and procedures are typically dealt with in international arbitration proceedings. Our 2001 Workshop drew over 240 ITA members, faculty and other attendees from over 40 countries. Our theme for the 2002 Workshop will address technology in arbitration. We intend not only to address technology-related legal issues, but to demonstrate how technology is (or might) change the way international arbitration is conducted in this digital age. We hope to co-sponsor the 2002 Workshop with the Center's brand new Institute for Law and Technology, another membership-based division of the Center of which I am also the Director. My question to you is this: Might you and your company see this assembly of prominent arbitration and technology lawyers from around the globe as a good marketing opportunity for your holographic imaging product? What I'd love to do is present one lecture or one mock scene via your product, demonstrating to all what seems to me to be the cutting-edge of videoconferencing today. Well? David
