Despite the fact that in the United States the coronavirus has not yet arrived, at least officially, practically every day we have to talk about an event that is canceled or that some participants announce that they cancel their attendance. Google announced yesterday that it was canceling its annual developer conference in mid-May.
SXSW organizers claim that do not plan to cancel the event, despite the pressure it is receiving from the organizers, which has forced Apple to cancel its attendance at the event, as well as other attendees, an event in which it had planned present the next releases that will come to your streaming video service.
According to SXSW officials, there is no evidence that the closure of the South by Southwest does not endanger the Austin community. Austin's Acting Medical Director and Public Health Officer states that They hold meetings daily to assess the possible risks of the coronavirus in addition to ensuring that closing the contest or similar activities will not make the community safer against this virus.
Apple planned to officially present at SXSW (South by Southwest) the documentary Beasti Boys Story, led by the Oscar winner Spike jonze (director of the first HomePod announcement), the animated series Central Park and the documentary series Home. In addition, he planned to organize a small talk with the attendees of the series Little America, where the creators, Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon shared their impressions with the assistants.
After cancellation of Google I / O, is on the air the celebration of the conference for Apple developers, scheduled for early June, an event where Apple presents every year, some of the news that will come from the hand of the next versions of the operating systems that manage the devices you currently have on the market.
