Yes that’s the one! It was Chris Granger’s project that Jamie worked on for a while (along with Josh Rob and Eric and myself). Eve came around at a time when Bret Victor’s videos were very popular and a lot of people were unhappy with the state of the web and programming in general.

Since then there’s been a pretty relentless if niche community growing around the idea. Eve is gone but the idea lives on in many different communities, and I think it’s clear the same spirit that spawned Eve motivates Jamie’s conference.

The primary venue for this kind of work has been the Live! workshop at SplashCon.

There’s also a community of people working on projects of this sort:

I think Jamie’s conference would be a good addition to this community, especially being in the spring, since Live is in the fall.
