Hey @antiboredom, firstly you have the best username EVERRRRR! Secondly I really like this work. I recall it getting some press when it first came out. Some of them are terrifying matches to the pictures.

Anyway - HARK I have good news. You're advanced to the next phase of our deliberations. Which means, I come seeking clarity over your stipend request. We've too many applications to the availability of stipends. If we were unable to provide you with a stipend this year, would you have any other way of coming to Mozfest?

[antiboredom]

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to attend without a stipend, but I don't necessarily need to be there - I could just send over materials/instructions for the installation.

[bunnybooboo]

Thanks for the rapid response. @antiboredom this of course may be an option. Some of our team are unavailable this week so there will likely be a slight delay in follow up. Leave it with me for now.

CONGRATULATIONS! Your session proposal has been accepted, and we've decided to invite you to come in person.

@antiboredom please look out for the email I just sent which contains a request for further information from you. I need this information by September 6.

[bunnybooboo]

@antiboredom please be wary of this rapidly approaching hard deadline, end of September 6. I need this requested travel information asap.

[bunnybooboo]

Having received no communication in the last month from this session @antiboredom , we have had to make the decision to immediately withdraw our invitation to attend the Privacy and Security space. Production have also been informed.
