This man says he’s Sean Parker’s son from the future, and he really wants to meet his dad

Sean Parker’s appearance on stage at LeWeb in Paris today attracted one of the biggest crowds of any of the sessions at the conference. When the floor was opened up to questions though, one man stole the show with a unique way to attract the serial entrepreneur and investor’s attention.

Claiming that he was Chris Parker, sent from the future to tell his father about the next major development in social media, he repeatedly pressed Sean to agree to a meeting. Parker dodged answering the question amid much joking over the mother of this child from the future being a Russian model. “Schweet!,” Sean remarked.

So, who was this ballsy guy with a unique pitch? It turns out he is Toronto-based Christopher Carmichael, whose startup Atendy is currently in stealth mode. We caught up with him to find out more.
