Actor French Stewart and writer/director Tracie Laymon during the Q & A of BOB TREVINO LIKES IT, a beautiful, poignant, and funny film about a lovely, real friendship. Barbie Ferreira, John Leguizamo, and French Stewart are all great in it. #sxswedu2024
Fantastic keynote for day 2 of #sxswedu2024: It’s Time to Stop Talking About the Literacy Crisis from Spencer Russell. Watch it here! youtu.be/nD5jAxEsNl8?... And there's even a 'whoop' from me as he talks about being married to a Kindergarten teacher.
Sarah Rose Siskind tells #sxswedu2024 says use humor to help science communication but must be positive “if you want to be trusted, use a light touch”. Avoid aggressive humor, and definitely not boring.
Sarah Rose Siskind reminds #sxswedu2024 that people drop out of stem fields, from 4th grade through college, because of boredom. And scientific jargon.
Keynote for day 3 at #sxswedu2024 is science!
"Science Comedy: Why It's a Thing & How to Do It" presented by science comedian Sarah Rose Siskind @srsiskind as always, sitting in the front row!
While in Austin for #sxswedu2024, walked a bit to see a couple remaining Moonlight Towers. Both on 11th, one still lites up at night (11th and Lydia) and one that doesn't (11th and Trinity, near the capital). Austin is the only place where Moonlight towers remain in the U.S.
