Part 1: Pre-show Risk Cabaret Concert by The Penny-wise Guys, and the very, very beginning of the ceremony.
Part 2: Lots of introductions. Several past winners return. Benoit Mandelbrot’s keynote address.
Part 3: Awarding of several prizes. First 2 acts of the mini-opera. The 24/7 Lectures.
Part 4—COMING SOON, AFTER WE OVERCOME ONE FINAL GLITCH: Awarding of the rest of the prizes. Win-a-Date contest. Thrilling conclusion of the mini-opera.
UPDATE: The glitch has been overcome. Here’s Part 4.
