2011 TechHui Conference

The 2011 TechHui conference (Twitter tag #techhui2011) will be held on December 10th at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa Art Auditorium. The goal of the conference is to highlight interesting Hawai'i-based people, projects and organizations working in science, technology and interactive design. We seek to facilitate education and networking within the Hawai'i technology community. Schedule & Speakers

Keynote
Mauian Physicist / Surfer Garret Lisi: "A Geometric Theory of Everything"

See Scientific American, TED

Using pure geometry, Einstein described gravity as the warping of four-dimensional spacetime, with the measurements of rulers and clocks differing based on their position and motion. Similarly, the other forces and particles of nature are described as the twisting of geometric structures over spacetime, and around each other. Examining the patterns of twists, we’ll find that gravity and every elementary particle in our Universe may be facets of the most beautiful structure known to mathematics dancing over spacetime according to the laws of quantum physics.
