Developer Conference 8-12 Nov 2010, Malmö, Sweden
Track overview
Tuesday: NoSQL Day
Track: Xtra(ck)
Always nice to have a little Xtra fun! We admit it: we have a kick-ass program. But Øredev also arranges all the parts that let you enjoy, re-energize, even relax while you learn. It also makes for better, easier network building. This year we boost the fun with a bonus activities track – the Xtra(ck) – running in parallel.
Friday
10:15 - 11:05
The taste of coffee
Or for a more hands-on approach, participate in a coffee tasting/workshop, during which you can sample different kinds and preparation techniques. Learn the difference and then let your taste buds enjoy all the hard work!
Mattias Sjöbäck
Mattias Sjöbäck is a self-professed “coffee nerd,” but with a rich depth of experience as a practitioner. He’s a professional coffee connaisseur, occasionally making guest appearances as a premium coffee missionary! “I want to explain, educate everyone on and even politicize the difference between just coffee and real coffee – in terms of its taste, origin, ecology, sustainability, transparency and trade conditions.”
11:20 - 12:10
music: the language of the eternal kinderkind
Music lifts our spirits. It can make us melt or hurl us into action.
But it also keeps us physically nimble and mentally supple. and you don’t have to be a musician to reap it’s benefits. It’s the language we are all born with. Music makes us better human beings. Using voice, with a healthy dose of laughter, this presentation will remind you that you are as young as you feel.

The Theremin
Many people may recognize the outer space sound from The Beach Boy’s song “Good Vibrations”, the Theremin is one of the most enigmatic of musical instruments.
