Welcome to info on Interesting Portland. We're thinking of doing another one. Stay tuned for details.

Interesting people. Interesting ideas. An evening of interestingness.

Posted: April 9th, 2008 | Author: admin | Filed under: Interesting | Comments Off

The idea behind Interesting is simple: an evening of 20 interesting people each talking about something they love/hate/do/did/know/care about/obsess over.

We want to replicate the experience of clicking from one really good blog to another, ranging haphazardly across culture, sciences, arts, crafts, whatever.

But with the added benefit of direct contact in a relaxed, conversational setting. The only requirement is that each presentation be either 3 or 10 minutes long.

This time topics included:

  • How to Pick Out Fruit
  • A Contemporary Idea of Justice
  • One Day Robert Duncan Went Insane
  • Doughnut Eating Contest by Voodoo Doughnuts
  • 1927: The Real Birth of Cool

See the videos for these and the rest of the talks under the Videos link.

And keep in touch with news of the next event (if we do one) via the Facebook group.

Thanks!
