on all things Solutions
in the Twin Cities
Local designers, artists, & activists are on the forefront of a tidal wave of change; yet they have no place to gather, socialize, or share their ideas. Solutions is the space for presenting these new ideas & drawing awareness to existing solutions. The core event is a rapid-fire exchange of ideas consisting of short presentations called “Solution Sets.”
Each presenter is allowed: 20 images x 20 seconds (each) = 6 minutes, 40 seconds
This short format keeps presentations concise, generates high levels of interest, & gives many people a chance to present at each event. While the event is local, the conversation will be global; Solutions will broadcast the event through the web in easily digestible idea packages.
