SkillSwap Brighton

One or two little things have got in the way of Skillswap recently. Firstly, there was a little conference thingymajig to help organise and now Lighthouse have selfishly commandeered their own venue (the cheek!) for a photographic exhibition (free and recommended). Without a venue we were pretty stuffed until Natalie suggested going to the pub. And that’s where we decided we’d try something different. Literally.

Et voila, we give you Skillswap on Speed.

The event will be held on Wednesday 29th October from 7.30pm until closing upstairs at The Eagle (Google Maps)

The premise is simple. Lightning speaker slots (5 minutes) upstairs at The Eagle on Wednesday October 29th from 7.30pm until closing. The theme is, well actually, there isn’t one; Speakers have been asked to just pick something they find interesting – and maybe a little different – that others would like to hear about. Amphetamines optional.

Speakers/Titles

1. Curtis James: Looking after the furniture in our brain attics
2. Cennydd Bowles: A rainy day, lost luggage and tangled Christmas tree lights
3. John V. Willshire: Uber Generated Content
4. Simon Willison: The Real-time Web
5. Cathy Jones: Tempo
6. Jenni Lloyd: Why do children go to school?
7. Jessica Spengler: That’s not what he said!
8. Andy Budd

The good folks of Madgex Towers have very kindly paid for the venue so it won’t cost you a penny to get in. Just bring yourself some beer tokens.

Numbers are limited so we’d appreciate it if you’d sign up in the usual way. And a quick note for those no-shows from the last event…we know who you are! Be a sport, and if you can’t make it, just let us know. Ta very much.
