Delayed #CESconf2018 tweeting (correct me if I’ve misremembered some..!) @billdthompson gave a great talk bridging the two schools and framing cumulative cultural evolution as computation ...

Heard many amazing talks at #CESConf2018 , many things to follow up. But the talk that most inspired me was @DrNathanNunn 's plenary on the after effects of slavery. And it ties so nicely with my current obsession with @yudapearl 's work on causality. Amazing work.

Niche diversity may also diversify your personality! Cool model presented by @psmaldino - check out the preprint! #CESConf2018

It's not official yet, but the top contender for the next meeting is Sapporo, Japan in 2020.

@2018_ces Really sorry I couldn’t make it this year, but I enjoyed hearing about it virtually from everyone on Twitter.
Any news about when/where the next conference will be?

[Nathan Nunn @DrNathanNunn]

Had an amazing time at this year's #cesconf2018. Saw tons of great inspiring research and met so many amazing scholars. -- I've posted slides from my plenary just in case anyone interested: https://t.co/oai8a9VQPu

More results from #CESConf2018 twitter dataset!
Here's what you were all talking about and when.

[Cameron Jones @camrobjones]

We appear to be a relatively scale-free network,
if a little too exponential?
Network boffins @amirgoldb, @evogom, @limor_raviv might have better terminology/explanations for this? #CESConf2018

[Cameron Jones @camrobjones]

Here's our #CESConf2018 network plotted using VOS_viewer. Thanks again to @MasYoungblood for pointing this and other resources out! Link strength/clustering based on no. of 'favouriting' interactions

[Cameron Jones @camrobjones]

Finally, #CESConf2018 appear to be a very reciprocal society. The # of tweets each user 'favourites' and has 'favorited' closely related (r=0.73). Moreover, users were 41x more likely to favourite a tweet by someone who favourited one of their own tweets during the conference.

[Amir Goldberg @amirgoldb]

Fantastic conference, @2018_ces, has come to an end. I really enjoyed the diversity of disciplines and ideas. I learned a lot and discovered great research. I also saw a lot of opportunities for this community to constructively engage with work in sociology and social psych.

[CES 2018 @2018_ces]

And, we're done!!! Thanks for coming everyone!

[CES 2018 @2018_ces]

@camrobjones @Limor_Raviv Next meeting, you get my job.

[Gareth Roberts @garicgymro]

Would be cool, for obvious reasons, to make repeated innovation and selection a hallmark of how CES does conferences. #CESConf2018

[DrLooksLikeAProfKline @MichelleAKline]

ITS TOO GOOD. I have FOMO despite actually being here ! #cesconf2018

[Dr Rachel Harrison @RachelAHarrison]

If you are an early-career who has been enjoying #CESconf2018 @2018_ces and you’d be interested in writing about it for @ESLRSociety Cultured Scene magazine, come and find me or drop me a tweet!

[Dr. Nicole Wen @NicoleJWen]

If attending @2018_ces, make sure you come to the General Member meeting. It’s a great way to give feedback to @CulturalEvolSoc! #CESconf2018

[Simon Carrignon @SimonCarrignon]

Now to @smollamarco to speak about the co evolution of social network and culture. #CESconf2018

[Dr. Limor Raviv 🦄🤗🐘🦒 @Limor_Raviv]

When two song types are introduced at the same time - revolutions fail!
