2008 Atheist Alliance International ConventionLive Interview Viewing of the 2008 Convention is Available!In 2007, AAI invested in technology that allowed live Internet streaming video to be seen around the world. The technology was used to stream the 2007 AAI "Crystal Clear Atheism" convention to hundreds of people around the world. Many passwords were also purchased by individual viewers. AAI received an overwhelming amount of compliments and thanks! After the 2007 convention, people wrote to say how pleased they were to have hosted large house parties, meetings, presentations at theaters and presentations at colleges. They also commented about the clarity of the picture and the fantastic audio that was provided. Consequently, AAI is offering live Internet streaming video of the 2008 AAI "Unsinkable Atheism" convention taking place September 25-28, 2008 on the Queen Mary (permanently docked in Long Beach, California). The best news of all is that the live Internet streaming video service will be available at a much lower rate then in 2007. Here are the new prices:
1. $75 for all three days (Friday night-Sunday morning) Consult the AAI Convention Schedule. Please consider purchasing a password to host a local mini-convention in your area. To purchase a password, please visit onsitestreaming.com In 2007, many passwords were used for viewing at colleges, group meetings and in private homes. Help spread the word by hosting an event in your area using a purchased password. This is a great way to see a convention in progress without investing in travel, hotel, convention fees and other expenses related to attending a convention. If you are associated with a group and would like to serve as satellite convention host for the weekend of the convention, please let AAI know. We will make sure to do a special "shout out" to your group on the nights you host a live Internet video viewing. We suggest that you secure a local venue with an Internet connection and a large viewing screen. In Philadelphia, a cooperating theater is being used. You may want to ask for assistance at a local college or library. With this type of set-up it would be like running a local conference, except that all of the presentations would be transmitted in via the Internet for your guests to watch. Praise technology! Since the broadcast service involves some cost, we suggest that you ask for donations at the event your group sponsors. The price for the viewing is so minor, however, that you may not feel the need to ask for donations. We leave it up to you. As an extra bonus, you will be able to log on after the show and download the WMV file so that you can watch it from your own hard drive. The shows will be posted after the live broadcast, and the convention activities will remain on the server for a week to be viewed or downloaded only by people who have purchased passwords. Please note that the following restrictions apply:
1. You cannot log on from more than 1 computer at any time using the same password. This prevents anyone from sharing a password. If the same password is used on another computer, both computers will stop receiving transmission. Please consider this option and let us know if we can be of further assistance.
