"Constantly Naked on Tumblr", a story told in the Montreal Conference Center

The world of scientific conferences. Of business meetings in general: huge halls, men in white shirts, corporate booths, sandwiches swallowed with the eyes stuck on program or brochures, ready to stir another coffee in a plastic cup. Nice stage for entertaining plot & jokes.

Any business with similar codes and trends, or close one. Any business, different types of business often mixed in the same conference hall. Any king of business - so why not porn industry? Scientific conference meeting porn conference?

Not a really unique idea, easy confrontation between figures from the two worlds. With potential jokes to share with an audience.
That's how I started preparing the story "Constantly naked on Tumblr" in order to share it at Once Upon A Slam, the story telling slam night in Ottawa. Story that I told at the March edition of Once Upon A Slam, quite a funny moment to share...

A funny story to tell anywhere, for sure, but especially funny in a Conference Centre. I came to the Palais des Congrès de Montréal with my camera that Sunday because the weather was bad. And I soon realized that it would be a nice place to tell that specific story. A few people were hanging around in the ground flour, mostly looking for their Sunday morning Tim Horton's coffee. So I took the first stairs I found to the 1st floor. 

Not sure if I was allowed to be there. A security guard was standing not far away from the stairs, but looking outside; he did not see me. Maybe there was no access to block, the gallery of the 1st level just empty; even if a few people were working in the exposition hall, certainly preparing a new exhibition. Whatever. I could take advantage of the vast empty space, particularly the tall colored window on the Western end of the building...
