Nerd Nite #2
Description
Debut Night sold out so here is round two!!!
Three talks. One spot. Zero chill. All nerd.
Born in New York and now hosted in more than 100 cities around the world, Nerd Nite is a monthly event where people share the things they're unapologetically obsessed with. No lectures. No panels. Just three fascinating humans, 20-minute talks, and a room full of curious strangers enjoying a drink together.
Whether you're into science, history, art, psychology, niche hobbies, or delightfully obscure rabbit holes, Nerd Nite is for anyone who loves learning something unexpected.
Date: Wednesday, 25 November
Venue: 462 Serangoon Rd, #02-00, Singapore 218141
Doors: 7.00 PM
Show: 7.30 PM sharp
Dhawina Jarcqueaz
The Social Glue Nobody Gets Credit For
Why do some communities seem to magically happen while others quietly disappear?
Dhawina digs into the invisible work behind belonging; the group chats, reminders, introductions, awkward conversations and tiny acts that keep people showing up. Because your supposedly “organic” community might actually be one unpaid project manager away from collapse.
Kai
How Did a Corporate Leo End Up in a War Zone?
How does a perfectly ordinary corporate boy end up somewhere most people would never think to visit?
Kai shares the unexpected realities of finding yourself in a war zone, from the moments that make you go “wait… this actually happened?” to the everyday details that rarely make it into the news. Part travel story, part personal field report, and part investigation into how the hell he got there.
Shane
Posters, Ghosts & Other Thai Horrors
What can a film poster tell you about what a society finds frightening?
Historian and collector Shane takes us through the evolution of Thai horror posters, exploring folklore, cinema, graphic design and visual culture from the 1970s to today.
And because looking at them on a screen isn't enough, he'll be bringing some original Thai horror posters from his personal collection for you to see up close.
Come nerd out with us.
Bring your curiosity, grab a drink, and kick off the night with a quiz for a chance to win a mystery prize.
Then settle in for three talks that'll leave you saying, "Huh... I never knew that."
You don't need to be an expert. Just come curious.
Be there. Be square.
FAQs
- Is food provided?
Nope. Grab food before you come, or bring your own food to eat during doors open from 7–7:30pm.
Canned drinks / bottled beers are included in your ticket and available for purchase too.
- What’s the space like?
Think cosy lecture room, not conference hall. Seating will be lecture-style, and you’ll be holding your own drink while you listen. Come comfy and be ready to seat near a fellow nerd.
- Can I present or volunteer?
100%. If you have something niche, oddly specific, deeply researched, or just something you can’t stop talking about, we want to hear it. Drop us your links / pitch and we’ll take a look.
