Your Ignite Fort Collins #10 Lineup

Nick Armstrong — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 17:00:02 +0000

How do you choose just 14 from so many fantastic ideas?

That was the problem the Ignite Fort Collins team faced.

There was a record turn-out for fantastic sparks for Ignite Fort Collins #10 – so many that the Ignite Team debated late into the night to pick our 14 talks from the list. Here they are:

Massage In Elementary and Middle Schools – Peer to peer massage routines
Cardboard and Duct Tape
What is Waldorf Education?
Intimacy Doesn’t Start In The Bedroom
Agriculture has it all wrong!
NaNoWriMo: Are you crazy enough to write a novel in 30 days?
The Beneficial Secrets of Yoga that Women are hiding from Men!
Romance Of The Three Kingdoms
Permaculture: The next global paradigm shift
~~Bad Air Guitar Must Be Stopped – Follow these steps to proper ‘Rockitude’~~
The Hollywood Formula
Yoda Got It Wrong
Don’t Believe the (Esoteric) Hype!
Grandma Says, Don’t Be Afraid to Be Different
TEDx and The Power of Ideas (formerly an alternate)

While we were together, we also chose our alternates (who are on deck in the event one of our 14 chosen speakers can’t deliver):

Whales don’t have too much to do: and how this truth can help us in our ‘beyond busy’ world
iKillU – What to do When Your Electronics Secretly Want You Dead

We’re really excited about the lineup. Tickets go on sale TODAY around noon, so be prepared. They’re $10 a pop and there’s less of them available than usual; don’t expect you’ll be able to get them later!

There’s also a few changes this time around – the venue is the Lincoln Center, meaning a full stage, tons of dedicated parking, and a within-walking-distance after-party! It’s going to be a night of awesome fun and we can’t wait to see you.

Ignite Fort Collins has a new home – the Lincoln Center!

Ignite Team — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 02:26:06 +0000

The newly re-opened Lincoln Center’s Magnolia Theatre is the perfect place for hits like ours. Plush seating, a great stage and ushers, even. Same idea of free flowing food and beer, amazing live music, and of course 14 intrepid speakers to ‘edutain you’ – but this time and from here on there will be a small admission price of $10.00 and worth every penny.

Lincoln Center is an ideal location for Ignite- downtown, there’s plenty of parking and the after parties will be at The Mayor of Old Town.

The theatre is an intimate one, so the flavor of Ignite’s will be more cozy and enhance our community feel, for sure.

Join us, won’t you?

Tickets on Sale Thursday January 5.
