Setup for the HHMI Science meeting tomorrow. Is this the future of conference poster sessions? I tend to view everything as optimization steps along some unknown cost function. We are in an interesting place right now! Love seeing people try something new!

@kristinmbranson While this gives much more flexibility on the format, I would be worried about the energy footprint of having so many screens on for multiple hours. Especially since last generations screens (like 4K) have typically higher energy consumption. I also see the risk to attract more people with visually appealing content, rather than good science, which was readily possible with posters, but even more with digital content !

@LauLauThom Good point! I've noticed that the monitors have been on all day as well.
