Report from the Field #42
“Me at the zoo”

Let’s celebrate its 20^th anniversary!

What and how

A presentation by Reto Kromer on the history and preservation of this iconic video – with a little about resolution, subsampling and bit-depth –, followed by an informal Q&A session and light refreshments.

When and where

In-person at the Technion in Haifa on Wednesday 23 April 2025 with webcast, starting at 11 o’clock in Israel (that’s 09:00 UTC). We will use a Jitsi-based platform and the link will be provided in proper time.

As usual, the admission to our Reports from the Field is free, but a registration is required and the seats are limited.

Notes

• We are very unhappy that our generosity is often betrayed, as many of our materials are distributed without naming their origin. Increasingly, others are even shamelessly claiming authorship of our work, which is just disgusting behaviour. And that’s the very reason why some resources are no longer freely available, but have been moved to password-protected parts of our website.
• Last night they tried to sabotage our meeting:
  
  … and they failed.
