Ignite ETech Talks
On the first evening of ETech we are going to have an Ignite immediately following Tim's annual keynote. The five-minute, 20 slide talks will range from personal passions to new APIs to sweet design. The talks will end with a short-story.
If you are going to be at ETech you'll be treated to the following talks:
- Jimmy Guterman - Why Screwing Up is the Smartest Thing You Can Do Everyone plans for success, but the best way to succeed is to suffer an accident. (Brady: A reprise of his TED talk.)
- Matt Webb - A Science Fictional Tour of the Solar System From alternative Earths to the space-spiders of Saturn.
- Stefan Magdalinski - Making Mayhem with MOO How to make MOO stuff in 5 minutes from your code.
- Noel Dickover - DoD CIO Emerging Technology Discovery Pilot DoD CIO is creating a Clearinghouse linking DoD technology needs with emerging tech vendors through a wiki-based pilot.
- saul griffith - Subverting science education HOWTOONS seeks to put joy, story, adventure, free-spirit, fun & ridiculousness, back into informal science education. (Brady: Saul is also speaking the next day on Energy Literacy)
- Cuneyt Taskiran - Hide Between the Lines: Natural Language Steganography and Watermarking Embedding data into text by modifying its lexical, syntactic, & semantic structure.
- Jan Borchers - Sweet Spots and Baroque Stages of Interactive Technology Sweet-spot technologies simplify your life, baroque ones complicate it. Learn why, and how to tell them apart.
