Revision as of 20:38, 28 July 2009
Though we live in an awfully fascinating world, humans are not complex enough to fully appreciate the depth and richness connate to each and every passing moment. The Annual Enfascination Lectures provide an outlet for the transmission over minds of an enthusiastic appreciation for at least some small cross-section of those things that one observer alone could never absorb merely passively.
Each guest is invited to give a five minute talk on any subject. Only two restrictions: 1) The subject must be on something that you could get excited talking about and 2) The five minutes will be kept to. Bonus points for erudition and for researching your topic in advance. Those with no plans of speaking are welcome to merely bask in the glory.
This years lectures were recorded. Below you will find lectures notes and/or videos. Videos range in size from 3 to 30 mB:
