“Explain Like I’m 5” is back!!!

If you can’t explain it to a six year old, you don’t understand it yourself. - Albert Einstein

“Explain Like I’m 5" is our collaborative speaker series, where local developers, technologists, entrepreneurs, artists, performers, scientists, and business people take a concept that may be highly specific to their area of expertise or work, and break it down to a lay audience from right across the STEAM spectrum with a minimal expectation of prior knowledge.

**Theme**:
No themes this time, although if someone wants to suggest something crazy, get in touch!

**Audience**:
The target audience is anyone and everyone who loves learning and expanding their horizons. No topic is off-limits as long as you are confident that it can be delivered to a lay audience within the constraints of the format.The event is in two parts; an invited and a free-for-all section, separated by a beer, soft drink, pizza and fresh fruit intermission.

**Rules**:
The rules for both groups are the same:
Speakers have a maximum of **7 minutes to speak** on the subject of their choice, followed by a short open Q&A.

**No Slides**!
The use of Non-Projected Visual Aids is heavily encouraged, and projectors may be considered for live demonstrations.
Before the event starts and during the break, presenters (invited or unplanned) are asked to **put a 3-5 word synopsis of their topic on the blackboard** along with their name.

The Compère will decide what order presentations will be done, so be nice to them!

Punishment for rule/time violators is at the discretion of the compère.

**Support**:
