South By Southwest

Today I leave for SXSW in Austin, Texas.

My primary goal is to eat a breakfast taco.

I’m a newbie at SXSW, so I’m a little overwhelmed excited.  But I have good company (riding on the plane with my friends from Out:think Group).  My friend Dan tells me the conference is insane.  That is the word he uses.  INSANE.  Though he’s never been before so he doesn’t really know.

Looking forward to seeing some old friends and meeting new people.  I’ll be running a camera at this non-profit event, which is cool.  I’ve never been to Austin before.  It’s in the 70′s today, and sunny, which is, of course, also pretty cool.

I imagine I will be tweeting a lot.  You can follow me, but if you only want one person to keep you up to speed about SXSW, follow this guy.  Thanks, Abandon Films, for sending me on this trip.  I will do my best to be where I am.  I have packed some deodorant and Purell hand sanitizer, so I should be good.

The lowdown: South by South West is a trendy and cutting-edge convergence of music, film, and technology.  I will be attending the film and technology conferences.

    Justin.. So Thankful for your help and it was amazing to see you and hang out. I do think INSANE was the correct term.

    Dan, agreed – it was great hanging out! Insane is the appropriate word.
