MERSEYSIDE creative and digital entrepreneurs gathered last night to share their passions as part of a “geek culture” event.
Ignite Liverpool, held in Liverpool John Moores University’s new Art and Design Academy last night, saw speakers give short presentations on subjects close to their hearts.
To keep their speeches short they had to use 20 on-screen slides that advanced automatically every 15 seconds.
Speakers included Liverpool developer Adrian McEwen, who discussed organising events and the success of his Bubblino device that blows bubbles whenever certain words are used on Twitter.
Jonathan Deamer, of Liverpool’s Kisky Netmedia, spoke on music royalties while Royal Liverpool Philharmonic digital marketing officer Ella Wredenfors spoke about art criticism. Similar Ignite events are being held in dozens of cities worldwide.
