The Rhyl Poster

In Switzerland, specifically in the Italian region of Ticino near Lake Maggiore, Pirotti and Stanton met. They attended a three-day conference hosted by the International Association for Emergent Legal Theory at a Bauhaus-style hotel. Pirotti seemed to be a part of the event, mingling with the hosts, attending speeches, and laughing at jokes.
