i like the party and coffee break type options. i can't sit through anything. on the other hand, i'd suggest being careful of the overly-collaborative models as well. for example, the audience may not feel like collaborating on the artist's project - it's the one-to-many format reiterated, except now the audience is compelled to actually work for the speaker! :-) a danger of the current emphasis on collaborative practice, i've found - in general, not just at conferences - is just that: one or a small group of people initiate something and ask others to join in as a "collaboration" - but there's a structure in which it remains the originator(s)'s project and the others wind up working for that person.

so i say, hooray for getting away from the lecture model! but, alternative structures need careful analysis as well.
