Speakers & Panels
There's no other event as focused on activism as Keenevention. Please come and enjoy our experienced NH activist speakers and panel discussions, but don't just sit back and watch! Every speaker and panel has an open mic for Q&A, so if you have a question for anyone on stage, please step up and ask!
Keenevention 2015
Keenevention 2015 panelists and keynote speakers are still being announced. Stay tuned to this website or our Facebook for further event announcements!
Keynote speakers:
Darryl W Perry – Darryl is a tireless activist for liberty. He hosts multiple radio shows including Peace, Love, Liberty Radio and the seven-day-a-week FPP Radio News, edits and publishes books and a newspaper, blogs on his own site and Free Keene, and is part of the board of directors of Cheshire TV and the Shire Free Church: Monadnock. Darryl's been an organizer of Keenevention since the first year and has run the very popular yearly raffle each year. If he's awake, he's probably doing liberty activism of some sort.
Christopher Cantwell – If you've been paying attention to the liberty movement, you probably know who Christopher Cantwell is and you probably have an opinion about him. Whatever your opinion of him, he's a passionate advocate for liberty and an excellent speaker. He might have things to say that may surprise you about his first year back in Keene.
Panel Discussions:
New Movers Panel: Get a fresh perspective on NH activism from a panel of people who've moved within the last year, hosted by new-mover-to-Peterborough, and author Dr. Tarrin Lupo. Panelists to be announced.
Old School Panel: Free State Project early mover Denis Goddard has lived in New Hampshire since 2005 and has been heavily involved in the political scene. He served as Selectman in his town, is Emeritus Director of Research for the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance, and hosted a cable access show in Concord for years. He and his panel of experienced New Hampshire activists will share their perspectives on how we got to where we are on this year's Old School Panel. Panelists to be announced.
Tickets:
The Keenevention isn't your typical liberty convention. We don't want you to spend the whole time cooped up in a hotel. You are encouraged to meet new and old friends and hit Keene's restaurants for your meals and get a taste of the town. Not having hotel banquet luncheons and dinners really keeps the ticket price down.
Plus, we're not inviting any fancy big-name liberty speakers from around the country. All Keenevention speakers are NH-based activists. That keeps our costs down, too. We're passing the savings on to you and have priced the full event tickets at just $60 for the whole weekend! You can also purchase VIP tickets below. VIP passes will get you a special VIP dinner (or luncheon) and a guess pass for the HALLOWKEENE costume dance party.
Online registration for Keenevention shuts down at 12pm Eastern on 10/27, or sooner if we sell out. This year pre-event ticketing will be limited to 100! Keenevention is an intimate, yet affordable event, so lock in your tickets now and order below with USD or BTC!
If you buy your tickets at-the-door, it will be $75 for the whole weekend or $30 per day. UNLESS you arrive early. Anyone showing up before 9am on any day (in time for the first panel) will only need to pay $25 for the day pass or you can get the $60 price point for the whole weekend with "Rise-and-Shine" pricing!
You can order tickets with USD now via Eventbrite – they make it easy: (or keep scrolling down for Bitcoin ticketing)

2015-07-28 Hour 2 Matt Heineman from Ernest Hancock on Vimeo.
Matthew Heineman
Matthew Heineman is an award-winning filmmaker based in New York. He recently directed and produced, with Academy Award nominee Susan Froemke, a feature-length documentary ESCAPE FIRE: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare. It premiered at Sundance 2012, won numerous awards at festivals across the country, and was released by Roadside Attractions/Lionsgate to critical acclaim in October 2012. The film premiered on CNN in March 2013, with over two million viewers tuning in for the primetime broadcast.
Heineman previously collaborated for two years with a team at HBO on the groundbreaking, Emmy-nominated HBO series, THE ALZHEIMER'S PROJECT, which aired in May 2009. He also directed and produced OUR TIME — a feature documentary about what it's like to be young in today's America.
Director / Producer / Cinematographer / Editor - Cartel Land
Webpage: CartelLandMovie.Com
THE FILM
With unprecedented access, CARTEL LAND is a riveting, on-the-ground look at the journeys of two modern-day vigilante groups and their shared enemy – the murderous Mexican drug cartels.
In the Mexican state of Michoacán, Dr. Jose Mireles, a small-town physician known as "El Doctor," leads the Autodefensas, a citizen uprising against the violent Knights Templar drug cartel that has wreaked havoc on the region for years. Meanwhile, in Arizona's Altar Valley – a narrow, 52-mile-long desert corridor known as Cocaine Alley – Tim "Nailer" Foley, an American veteran, heads a small paramilitary group called Arizona Border Recon, whose goal is to stop Mexico's drug wars from seeping across our border.
Filmmaker Matthew Heineman embeds himself in the heart of darkness as Nailer, El Doctor, and the cartel each vie to bring their own brand of justice to a society where institutions have failed. From executive producer Kathryn Bigelow (THE HURT LOCKER, ZERO DARK THIRTY), CARTEL LAND is a chilling, visceral meditation on the breakdown of order and the blurry line between good and evil. At the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, Heineman received both the Directing Award and Special Jury Award for Cinematography in the U.S. Documentary competition.

===============================
Start with "Why?"
Sharing content on the web is currently an imperfect process. Content creators must depend on centrally-controlled servers, generating revenue based on ineffective, outdated, and restrictive advertising and DRM models. Governments censor what the people can watch, and creators often have their content deleted from the Internet without their consent. We can do better.
In keeping with open-source and peer-to-peer ideologies, Alexandria is a crowdfunded project. Building a decentralized, indelible peer-to-peer library is no small undertaking. The team building Alexandria is committed to making this a reality for the world and we are asking for your help. With your support, this lofty goal becomes attainable.
What is Alexandria?
An open-source distributed library for sharing and preserving art, history and culture. Imagine a platform like Youtube, Soundcloud, or Netflix - without any of the costly server or bandwidth overhead. Users can self-publish anything, including videos, music, books, 3D-printables, recipes, and more. Content creators have complete control over how their work is published with several different monetization options. Only the publisher has the power to remove her/his content from the library.
What Bitcoin did for money, Alexandria will do for digital content publishing and distribution by removing central points of failure and financially incentivizing users around the world.
How does it work?
Alexandria harnesses the power of distributed technologies, including IPFS and the Bitcoin and Florincoin blockchains. IPFS, based on BitTorrent technology, allows for the library to hold an inconceivable amount of content, while ensuring that content is delivered efficiently when demand is highest. Bitcoin is optionally used for audience-to-publisher payments. The Florincoin blockchain provides a permanent, publicly accessible publishing ledger and payments layer creating data permanence and financial incentive for users to contribute to the growth and security of the platform.
