Do you like TED Talks? Do you want to listen to an intellectual discussion with a glass of wine or a pint of beer? Then head to Nerd Nite Tokyo for your monthly dose of wisdom — and fun.
A message from Nerd Nite Tokyo:
Every month, we gather some smart speakers and a curious crowd, add a bar, and create something unique. This month, we’re in Sugamo with talks on the power of music and the potential of virtual reality. Plus, we have café food and craft beer on tap!
You can design a lecture hall for sharing ideas, an exhibition space with demonstrations of full-scale animated models of scientific or engineering equipment, select landing sites for a space mission by standing on another planet, or cut that deal on a golf course in Captain Nemo’s submarine (complete with giant squid).
Drinks (both alcoholic and non) as well as food will be available. Check out the menu here and come early; we’re opening the doors at 7 PM. Drink, meet, and be square-y! Kids are also welcome at Nerd Nite.
Speakers:
- Yutaka Kikugawa — Social action through music: 12 years of experience from El Sistema Japan
- Elizabeth Tasker — Ready Player One: Virtual spaces for extraordinary experiences
