Seeding Shapeshifters: send your favourites

Shapeshifters will soon be going on a seeding tour again which allows us to meet creatives face-to-face and introduce them to the world of shapeshifters. As always we plan to hold briefings in a number of places:

Boston
New York City
New Orleans
Boulder
Santa Fe
Los Angeles
Portland
Vancouver
Toronto
The Carribean (no specific destination specified yet)

Any suggestions whom we should invite to a shapeshifter briefing in these places?
Your hints are highly appreciated (and will help to shape the community based on your expectations).

Hi Lukas,
like last year it will be myself who runs the show.
The tour will be financed with our own Shapeshifters seeding budget.

Thanks for the hints. Will get back to you with details soon.

While in Santa Fe you could pay a visit to and meet up with people at the Santa Fe institute: http://www.santafe.edu/

There is an interesting article in MCK Wissen Nr.15 about them. Here is the link to the magazine. The article is not online though:

Dear all,

Just wanted to let you know that we had great meetings with Clare Ultimo in NYC and with the Santa Fe Institute as well. As a matter of fact we almost spent two days with the nicest and most extraordinary people one can imagine at the Sante Fe Institute. It turned out to be a life changing experience.
