I've had the pleasure of attending several Ignite events. They consist of a bunch of five-minute lightning talks on a wide variety of topics. You can watch previous talks here.
There is a live-streamed Ignite event happening tonight at 6 PM Pacific Time and the lineup looks intriguing.
The topics include historical tales of fancy pigeon feather theft, how to micro-dose, and how to get safely arrested while protesting the hegemony. Plus, we'll be joined by an epidemiologist from UNC and the woman who's been adding art to SF's boarded-up storefronts.
Our speakers:
Hope Williams – Coordinated Acts of Civil Disobedience
Monica Guzman – 7 words to keep your world from shrinking
Cecily Mak – C L E A R L I F E
