fastBREAK - Play

fastBREAK is a monthly series of rapid-fire interactive talks hosted by Vibewire and the Powerhouse Museum. Each month, five entrepreneurs from various industries tackle big questions with five-minute responses. Then, over a Black Star Pastry breakfast, participants are invited to share ideas and experiences with the five speakers.

The wonders of play make anything possible. The only limit is your imagination. But as we get older, rules, do’s and don’ts, and the reality of getting a “real job” sets in.

Despite the pressure of the future setting in and time ticking away, some people manage to keep the fun of youth in their lives.

Each of the speakers will have five minutes to show-and-tell how the keep the possibilities of “play” in their life.

Speakers include:
Gavin Smith President of Robots and Dinosaurs, a Sydney hackerspace that, works to give creative types, geeks, and artists, a place to collaborate on projects.

Michael Scholz co-founder and director of Pigeonloft an iPhone app that revives the charm of communicating via post-cards but bringing this into the digital 21st century. Michael is also Product Manager at software enterprise provider SAP.

Ben Rennie from innovation lab 6.2 which works to improve organisations and companies to make them more efficient and achieve the position they want in their market.

Lisa O’Brien, a Sydney-based freelance writer and editor. She is currently Deputy Chief Subeditor at Cleo magazine.

And one other mystery speaker.
