Missing Links Conference

November 22nd-23rd 2007

Thank you everyone for a very successful conference! And as Frederik said: This leaves us no other option but to aim for a third Symbolic Species meeting in late 2008 or early 2009.

We encourage everyone to send us their electronic photos so we can add a gallery page to the site. You can use the conference address: sign[at]symbolicspecies[dot]com.

All the best and hoping to see you all in Copenhagen again.

Theresa Schilhab, Frederik Stjernfelt and Claus Emmeche
