Today is international Open Access Week and, in celebration and to raise awareness, I gave a talk and workshop at the University of Sussex for a cross-discipline audience. I was pleasantly surprised this year at the acceptance of an open culture and intrinsic understanding of the benefits of openness, both in monetary and permissive terms.

In addition to this session, which will form the basis of an additional workshop I am running next week, I also wrote a post for PhD2Published on the tipping point of Open Access and have a poster "interview" displayed in the Sussex library.

Of course, Open culture dictates that the irony would be unbearable were I not to share my Prezi, so here it is for the curious:
