Dear System Dynamicists:
This year's SDS conference in Boston
http://www.systemdynamics.org/conferenc ... /index.htm
will feature the first ever ""System Dynamics Talent Show.""
I'm writing to encourage you, first, to attend the conference and, second, to prepare an entry into this likely talent-less but wildly enjoyable session.
Entries could be any sort of System-Dynamics-themed performance art that can happen in less than about 5 minutes: a SD song, poem, joke, dance, painting, martial arts demo, one-act play, etc. Small groups encouraged.
Rumor has it that:
- Pal Davidson is preparing a violin interpretation of the appendices of Industrial Dynamics.
- Graham Winch will dance a ballet of the Market Growth model.
- John Sterman will juggle four copies of Business Dynamics while reciting its bibliography from memory.
- Bob Eberlein thinks he can do the best Jay Forrester imitation. Is he right?
But seriously, several colleagues and I have been re-writing the words to rock-and-roll songs and will sing them (very poorly) with guitar back-up.
The latest idea (by Jack Homer): a new KISS song ""I Wanna Stock and Flow ALL NIGHT and Make Loop Every Day..."".
People flying in: there will be a guitar you can use. Other instruments possibly available.
Once again, TALENT OPTIONAL.
Please email me to reserve a spot in show. Feel free to email with questions.
