Speaker: Kel Kelly

Kel Kelly

What’s the “American system” of economics? Most people would say it is capitalism, which thereby deserves all fault when anything goes wrong. Well, Kel Kelly responds to this myth in this fast-paced and darn-near comprehensive treatment of the truth about the free market and intervention.

Kel Kelly has spent over 15 years as a Wall Street trader, a corporate finance analyst, and a research director for a Fortune 500 management consulting firm. Results of his financial analyses have been presented on CNBC Europe and in the online editions of CNN, Forbes, BusinessWeek, and the Wall Street Journal. He is the author of The Case for Legalizing Capitalism. Kel holds a degree in economics from the University of Tennessee, an MBA from the University of Hartford, and an MS in economics from Florida State University. He lives in Atlanta.

Film: Dark Side of the Rainbow

Dark Side of the RainbowDark Side of the Rainbow Screening at 8:00 pm
Free for all.

Also known as Dark Side of Oz or The Wizard of Floyd – refers to the pairing of the 1973 Pink Floyd album The Dark Side of the Moon with the visual portion of the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. This produces moments where the film and the album appear to correspond with each other. The title of the music video-like experience comes from a combination of the album title and the film’s song “Over the Rainbow”. Band members and others involved in the making of the album state that any relationship between the two works of art is merely a coincidence.

Staring Judy Garland, Frank Morgan and Ray Bolger

Headphone Disco

Presidential Courtyard | April 13, 2012 @ 7:00PM

Headphone DiscoHeadphone Disco are the biggest ’silent party’ people around performing their unique ‘TwoDeejaySuperShow’ to enthusiastic crowds around the world. Each show involves arming clubbers with their own set of wireless two-channel headphones, switching off the sound-system and having two DJs spin two completely different sets side by side from Headphone Disco’s visually enhanced stage set-up.

Two DJs. Two styles of music. Both at the same time. So how does it work?

  • Our crew arrive at your venue/location and set the whole show up.
  • We hand out our unique two-channel ‘disco-muffs’ to each party person on arrival
  • Our DJs rock the show mashing up two channels of tunes with live video scratch mixing
  • The crowd select their DJ of choice via a switch on the headphones and get busy on the dance floor
