Presenting in Gather.town

This year’s GeoTag will take place in Gather.town (www.gather.town). There is a specific room (Poster Hall) where posters will be presented. And a specific room (Photo Hall) where the photo award will take place. You will need to submit your poster or photographs before the GeoTag and it will then be set up for you within Gather.town. During the poster session you should stand in the shaded square in front of your poster. This shaded square is known as a “private space” and your audio/video will be shared with everyone else in this square, but not neighbouring spaces.

A short tutorial on how to use Gather can be found here.
