1 | Timestamp | I would like to host a: | Please give a short title of your talk | Estimated duration (minutes) | Please share your name, Discord handle, or Obsidian Forum username: | Which online meeting tool would work best for you? | Would you like a moderator to introduce you and handle the Q&A. If "Yes", you can suggest a moderator in the "Other..." option. | Do you have any technical requirements for your presentation? If "Yes", you can list then in the "Other..." option. | Are you willing to record and share the meeting afterwards? | Here you can give a longer description of the topic of your talk | ||||||
2 | 3/27/2021 12:06:02 | Collaborative hackathon | Importing long-form notes into Obsidian | 90 | Dextyrio | Any | Preferably anyone with a Zoom Pro account, otherwise, I don’t need a mod and will buy a $15 Zoom Pro subscription for the month and mention my Paypal donation ID at end of session if anyone who benefited from the session wants to voluntarily share a few bucks as thanks to split the bill. | (see moderator request section) | Yes | The “rock” stuck in here is a common situation fornon-data-mining-scientists who mgirated their old-skool PKB (perstonal knowledge base) to Obsidian: Taking one massive plaintext note of ideas that was imported from elsewhere, and parsing it with Obsidian as a No(or Low)-Code text analytics tool to automate the derivation of contextual meanings. Agenda: Part I: Auto-Headering an Obsidian note's sections to tokenise them for refactoring Part II: Auto-Tagging a header-tokenised Obsidian note's contents... to pre-process for later built-in graphing or other visualisation with Mindmap/Neo4j. Attempt to do everything from within Obsidian’s built-in console & plugins alone, else minimal outside desktop toolkits if need be, without resorting to hosted/SAAS web services. | ||||||

4 | 3/30/2021 9:35:51 | Talk/Presentation | Using Pandoc to write PDFs, Word documents, and slideshows in Markdown | 60 | SkepticMystic | Discord | Yes | Yes, Ideally users would follow along by using pandoc to convert documents as the talk goes on. This will require the audience to have pandoc installed. I think it would be best to put out a tutorial on installing pandoc so that I don't need to spend too much time on that in the actual talk | Yes | |||||||
5 | 3/30/2021 10:27:15 | Talk/Presentation | Deep Learning on Networks -- Introduction and Use Cases | 30 | xnhp | Discord | Yes, Preferrably but not necessarily | No | Yes | |||||||

8 | 3/30/2021 13:03:42 | Talk/Presentation | The Second Brain Implant: Exploring the Interface Between Artificial and Human Intelligence | 60 | paubric | Discord | No | No | Yes | Just like there are sound frequencies we cannot hear and wavelengths of light we cannot see, there might very well be thoughts we cannot think. However, just like there are advanced sensors that can help us detect sound and light beyond our bodily senses, there are transformative tools that can help us think beyond what was previously thinkable. We can engineer “spacecraft” for venturing into the depths of conceptual space, exploring what lies beyond the pale blue dot of native human cognition. AI is especially well-positioned to fuel this expansion through its unique ability of manipulating abstract representations. This talk aims to: (1) provide an overview of recent trends in cognitive augmentation, (2) highlight the potential of the second brain architecture as a research platform, and (3) offer a glimpse into the future development of collaborative, embodied, and enactive tools for thought. The intended audience for this talk consists of: (1) people curious about ways of augmenting their knowledge work today, (2) makers interested in building the tools for thought of tomorrow, and (3) academics interested in the more abstract dimension of cognitive augmentation. This talk is based on the recent work of Psionica (https://psionica.org/), an open collective on a mission to augment thought for all, although it will also comment on work done by giants from MIT Media Lab (https://www.media.mit.edu/groups/fluid-interfaces/overview/). A brief look through past projects from Psionica and MML is recommended. | ||||||
9 | 3/30/2021 15:56:07 | Talk/Presentation | Zotero 101 | I honestly don't know.

10 | 4/1/2021 16:27:22 | Talk/Presentation | Obsidian 101 | 60 | LearningRabbitHole | I can try Discord, but I have a Zoom account and that way more people could join.

11 | 4/2/2021 13:10:46 | Talk/Discussion (I will have a short presentation but I would like the focus to be on Q&A and discussion) | Notetaking for university students - Discussing the best practices for studying in Obsidian | 20/30 presentation + Q&A/discussion | Wace#0765 | Discord | Yes | No | Yes | I would love to share my current process of notetaking in obsidian as a university student. Using Obsidian has completely changed the way I take notes and study, it's the program where I spend most of my days and the core of my entire learning process. I will probably also briefly touch on things outside of Obsidian, like my organization and general study process, in order to give better context to the way I work in Obsidian. The main goal would be for my presentation to be the introduction to a collaborative analysis where we dicuss what are the best practices to use Obsidian as a tool for learning and studying. | ||||||

I'll be explaining how a user can customize their menu bar, and their theme for their own needs. | ||||||
21 | 9/21/2021 20:40:46 | Collaborative hackathon / Hands-On / Workshop / Discussion | Obsidian Plugin Workshop | 45-60 | phibr0 (both Discord and the Forum, please message me on Discord though) | Discord | Yes | No | Yes | I would show the audience how to create Plugins themselves, explaining as much details as I can. I want to start with the initial Setup (installing Node and cloning the Sample Plugin etc.) and then go on with creating a small and easy Plugin (Possibly a remake of a little Plugin I already made so I can explain it better). At the End I want to do a Q&A Session, too. | ||||||
