OSCAR SYMPOSIUM
with your host Nathaniel and six very special guests
February 2008

 

February 2nd, 2008
It's time for the 3rd Annual Oscar Symposium. Last year and the year before were both eye opening and stimulating for me as host. I wish I could carry on a conversation with 15 people at once (so many former participants and new voices I wanted to include) but with two years of these conversations behind me, it's already as noisy as an Altman film with the 7 overlapping voices. And the nominees for "Best Participant in a Symposium in 2008" are...

You'll be eavesdropping on the conversation from Feb 4th through the 7th. Thanks for reading,
_____Nathaniel (your host)
