SXSW 2005 Interactive.

I don't think I've ever participated in any of the interactive events/conferences or anything during SXSW... I'm not even sure when the actual interactive conference starts. I guess it begins with the Film... Anyway, a couple of buddies of mine, for the past five years have been putting on this event in conjunction with SXSW Interactive called 20x2.

Here's the skinny... They pick 20 different people and pose a single question... And then each person is given exactly 2 minutes in which to answer that question in their own unique way... This time around, the question was "What's the word?".

(Jefe & Mike by way of BlueishOrange)

I was a speaker in the last 20x2 when the question was "What's the story?"

If you missed it... SORRY SUCKA!!! It will never be reproduced ever again.
But, it was a pretty nerve-racking experience. One that I wasn't' ready to relive quite yet. But I did offer my DJ services for the event. It was a great batch of people... Some really solid answers and great performances. Takes a lot of guts and talent for people to get up there and do what they do.

Matt Bearden answered his question in a series of letters to President Bush, an A-Hole from his high school, and Rebecca Romijn-No-Stamos. Allison answered her question by spending her 2 minutes (she didn't need the whole 60 seconds) figuring out her buddy's password to his email acount. And well... There were 18 others. Those are just the ones that pop into my immediate memory. I played on after the event for about an hour or so, and the booty-shakers graced me with their assets. Thank you dancers...

My kudos to Jefe and Kevin.
(They started the whole damn thing...)
