Nerd say what now? Welcome to nerd nite wellington: the first Southern Hemisphere version of the rapidly-becoming-global geekery that is nerd nite. I’m Dell, and I’ll be your host for all manner of nerdery and beer wine. You can find me on twitter: @cerebralnz . We all know that learning new things is far more fun in the presence of booze and friends. And that’s exactly what nerd nite Wellington is about! We were the first Southern Hemisphere chapter of the global Nerd Nite phenomenon, which has now reached into more than 90 cities across the globe. Three speakers give 15-25 minute presentations on a topic about which they’re ‘nerdy’ (i.e. passionate) on just about any subject you can imagine. Over the 30+ nerd nites we’ve had so far, we’ve had talks on witchcraft and geoengineering, video as propaganda and the periodic table’s history, and an awful lot more. Get hold of us! Stalk us! Suggest speakers/topics! We have both a facebook page (with event pages for each event) and, obviously, a Twitter feed.
