Advertising can take over your life. Maybe it's time you met some people who didn't want to talk to you about ROIs, RFPs and their bosses penchant for not knowing a good idea if it bit him in the ass.

Luckily, if you live in New York, Interesting is waiting for you. The event invites "people to get on stage and share their passions, curiosities, obsessions, but mostly, what they're interested in."

Topics range from poetry to erotic film (see above). Maybe you have something interesting to say?

The event is run by a gaggle of creative thinkers at the Open Intelligence Agency. Now, they seem pretty darn interesting. Get more information and tickets here.
