Orwell presentation

 

Thanks everyone who came to see NERD NITE. 

My presentation, "I LOVE 1984: GEORGE ORWELL VS. VH1" was very well received. And fittingly, I took the stage just as the new season of Best Week Ever premiered on VH1. (How's that for counter-programming?!)

Also, in true KEVIN GEEKS OUT fashion, my 20-minute talk clocked in at 35 minutes. 

At some point I'll either post video from the presentation or I'll do it again at another show. (Let me know if you can suggest a venue for pseudo-academic memoirs.) 

Upcoming Show - Friday 1/18

I've been a longtime fan of the NERD NITE lecture series, so I'm excited to finally appear at one.

The evening consists of three 20-minute presentations. 

My talk is titled "I LOVE 1984: George Orwell Vs. VH1"

Description: People throw around the term “Orwellian”, but could it be that basic-cable pop-culture clip-shows best capture the spirit of Orwell’s dystopian future? Kevin Maher shares his personal experiences writing for talking-head clip shows, comparing the popular format to the “perversions and swindles” that George Orwell feared. The presentation includes awesomely bad double-speak and a visit to Kevin’s own version of room 101.
