im actually really scared of lots of people at emf because they know lots and i'm thinking i don't know much and i don't have a thing i just exist and vibe along to whatever looks cool but i don't actually know lots and even if i wanted to i can't
@0x47df there's definitely nothing wrong with going to EMF to check out the cool stuff and chat with people, without bringing or doing something specific. that's how most people experience EMF!
@0x47df you’ll be fine, the typical EMF attendee knows lots about one or two specific subjects, and is a barely functioning wreck in many others. The beauty of it is that once you distribute that over 3000 people or so you’ve got all the bases covered and suddenly amazing things happen.
@0x47df even after 12 years of EMF events I consider myself to know just enough to be dangerous when it comes to making anything physical. Still there for the vibes, but I’ve picked up a thing or two (and several half-started hobbies) over the years.
@gsuberland @0x47df My first EMF was actually 2022.
I felt like an imposter but I still felt like I'd still found my people.
I don't feel like I have a clue what I'm on about. Even in things I do every day. There's always someone around what makes you feel like you know nothing.
@gsuberland @0x47df Much sadness that I'm not coming (again 😢), but if I were, I would likely be empty handed!
And you know what? Graham doesn't do my job but I bet he'd be much better at it than me. No skit. He's very good at what he does and he's better at my job than I am. Take advice from him.
