I certainly would love it if videos were available, as it won't be possible for me to make it in person, this year or for the next 3, due to a heavy study and travel schedule already. Another alternative might be to have it as a printed paper/printout of a Powerpoint presentation, if the video version is too expensive/hard to do. Finding out what Amano has to say will certainly be worth while, whatever the format, and I would also have loved to hear Tom Barr. Maybe one day, in person!
