Computer Aided Liaison Interpretation

Two days in a row where I have put my MacBook into full view on the meeting table as an aid for interpretation. It makes for a lot of things around, besides the IC dictionary I ended up not using. Block of paper, too many business cards, Evian bottles and snacks courtesy of the visited. No LAN Internet access so I have to rely on wireless. I wonder if Wimax does make a real difference. E-Mobile is simply too slow and adds stress when queries take time to yield back results. But the configuration is useful though. I have observed myself delivering for the day presentation an discovered something interesting, that I would look to my notes, to people's faces and to my laptop screen alternatively, but especially to the computer screen ... as a conscious way to concentrate, to keep focused on phrasing back the message rather than cueing words. It's a strange situation I will try and follow next time to try and understand the meaning of it. Feeling more secure by the sight of the PC screen. What does it mean?

Incidentally, tools are missing for proper display in the context of interpretation words prepared prior to the session as well as word caught and queried during the session. A simple task robotization should allow to simply copy paste a word in an ad hoc file featuring so sort of auto formating. All this still very fuzzy.
