Ring the bell if lost. Finally learn what you only kinda sorta understand.About this EventWhat the f*** is a Gong Show?Presenters who work in science, tech, or another "it's hard to explain" field get 3 minutes to explain their work without confusing the audience. If the audience hears a word they don’t understand, they ring a bell (*gong*). Presenters must pause, clarify, and keep going.Because this is a COY event, we also ask playful questions to humanize our smart friends.Why Come?For Presenters:Practice explaining your work clearly.Get instant feedback from a friendly audience.What else are you doing on a Friday night?For Audience:Interrupt your smart friends.You might learn something new. You might not. Take the risk.Someone may talk about AI. Riveting stuff.Event Rules:Presentations are 3 mins. Pretend the audience has a small attention span (because they do).No jargon. Bell = “I don’t get it”Presenters must clarify before moving on.Safe space! Don’t just nod politely and stay confused. Ring your bell!No questions that begin with “Well I think….”Support the EventDonations helps us host more free events and build a community that supports all of you. Every contribution helps!
