Seriously guys, don’t sleep on this. Vivid LIVE gets all the focus what with the Karen O psycho operas and Janelle Monáe turning into an android and everything but its ideas focused sister event is just as worthy of your attention. Put together by the indefatigable Jess Scully, this year’s Creative Sydney lineup features a fantastic group of speakers ranging from Sydney video directors Kris Moyes and SPOD, Rage producer/programmer Madeline Palmer, US writer and designer Frank Chimero, Vice founder and CEO Shane Smith, Threadless founder Jake Nickell, ETSY CEO Chad Dickerson, slogan enthusiast Henry Holland, Boing Boing co-founder Cory Doctorow and many, many more.
The talks will be augmented with seminars on gaming, architecture and publishing and niche events like a speed networking event for screen and content makers and a three day seminar on how to write and develop your first screenplay.
