Writer, technologist and broadcaster Leila is fascinated by contemporary maker culture and espouses 'doing things you're not supposed to' with ideas and systems wherever possible. She is the co-creator of successful 'geek culture' podcast Shift Run Stop, the author of three humour books and the founder of several sell-out event series, including apocalypse-themed 'The Event', and performance tech night, Hack Circus -- which she has recently launched as a magazine. Always working on the borders of technology and art, she was a 'technologist in residence' at Sheffield's Site Gallery in 2012, writes on hacking for WIRED UK, and currently works for a magician.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
