Ahh those whacky CS students from Monash. I went to RMIT & Swinny and missed "The Damian". What kind of lectures did he run? I've heard some of his talks & they are pretty good ~ http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail880.html http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail880.html If your lucky you can still hear him talk for nics at Melbourne Perl Mongers.
- astrec 18y agoHe taught the first year intro to programming (C) with Ann Nicholson (AI researcher), and supervised a few post graduates. Ann also taught the Lisp course. Damian was a fantastic lecturer with a rare ability to enthuse and engage his students while he delivered otherwise dry material. A true master of the story.
