Skepticamp Sydney 2011
Event Information
Description
Skepticamp Sydney 2011 is here!
To be held at Sydney's UTS Campus, Skepticamp is the unconference for skeptics. What's an unconference, you say? Well, in the words of Skepticamp.org:
"Diverging from the traditional lecture events which have dominated skepticism for decades, these ‘open events’ tear down the barriers to organizing substantive (and fun) events by building on the wildly-successful Barcamp conference model from the tech community."
That means skepticamp is a conference for the delegates by the delegates.
Everyone is encouraged to bring a topic to speak on, everyone is encouraged to bring questions, and everyone can help out on the day*.
Skepticamp Sydney 2011 will be held in Room 10 on level 4 of building 2 at the University of Technology, Sydney, on Broadway. The event is easily reached by public transport, and is well served in terms of facilities.
More info can be found at http://skepticampaustralia.org/ (keep your eyes peeled because the info here will evolve as the day approaches!)
Finally, we're looking for sponsors to help out with Lunch and Post-unConference Drinks, at a venue TBD. We'd also love to give out prizes for the best presentations on the day. If you would like to sponsor the event, Please get in touch via the link at the top of the page.
* If you wish to give a presentation, please bring a USB stick with your presentation and/or a laptop. Please feel free to advertise your topic in advance at the Skepticamp Wiki
