at galapagos in dumbo, preceded by nerd night speed dating
Nerd Nite
Nerd Nite; It's Like the Discovery Channel with Beer. First, Kate Jones talks about Pi. It's not just a non-terminating irrational number; it¹s a way of life. Second, Paco from Math For American discusses, Mathematicians: Behind the Music. Go behind the scenes of the mathematician subculture. Finally, Ames Grawert makes The Legal Case for Gay Marriage. Grawert, a self-described "big city lawyer" (admission pending...) will make the argument, sure to be controversial in Brooklyn, that an honest reading of the Equal Protection Clause, history, and existing precedent would require state and federal authorities to recognize same-sex marriage rights.
Speed Dating
New York's most unusual love connection darling is back on Friday March 12, 2010 at Galapagos Art Space in DUMBO as Nerd Nite brings back its revered hetero speed dating. 25 smart gals. 25 wise fellas. 50 smart hearts yearning for one another (and a few cocktails). After speed dating, regular Nerd Nite features presentations about Pi, the seedy underbelly of mathematicians, and the legal case for gay marriage
