The Treehouse Group

Summer vacation season is sadly coming to a close, but we’re looking forward to some great Treehouse Talks in the coming months. If you haven’t been able to make it to previous events, videos of all the Talks to date can be seen here.

Our next event is taking place on September 3rd at MaRS Discovery District, room CR2, from 6-7:30 pm. It’ll be free to anyone who would like to come, and will feature:

• SASHA GRUJICIC on Technology and Change: How it’s happened, how it’s accelerating, and how we need to deal with it
• SHIRLEY KHALIL on empowerment and healing using music.
• SHAWN MICALLEF on his book Stroll: Psychogeographic Walking Tours of Toronto.

Many thanks to everyone who’s given us (overwhelmingly positive) feedback - we love hearing what you have to say!

For those of you looking for information about June’s Toronto ideaXchange: Dimensions of Music, photos are up on Flickr.

It’s time for another ideaXchange! On June 13, join dozens of curious and engaging people from across the city for an afternoon of ideas, activities and networking at MaRS. We’re eager to repeat the success of the 2008 and 2009 editions with an ideaXchange devoted to the world of music. Think: beat-boxers, New Orleans Style Brass bands, phonetics in Opera, mental health and music, technology, and the “pirate” problem, plus anything else we can jam in. We’ll also have live musicians writing songs during the conference to be performed at the end.  Ending off the day will be a catered reception, and a chance to continue the discussion(s).

Tickets for the event can be purchased here.

For more information on what we do, you can go to the Events page. Details about this ideaXchange will be updated here.
