Primer talks

A series of 5-6 short talks (<10 minutes) that prepare, and make a captive audience ready for a particular purpose around a real-world topic e.g. "Urban Mobility" "Future Workplace" "Zero emissions" "Zero Returns" "Frontline Safety".
Collaborative discussion needs to make a connection fast, be open-ended, bound to trigger something after. This format tries to kill the small talk and get to the point. Primer talks goal is to facilitate perspectives, and speaker and audience engagement after.

Audiences want real-world decision makers making it happen, not innovation theatre. Primer talks are used to set the stage for immersive problem solving workshops design sprint, a hackathon, "blue-sky" design thinking etc. IT is the contextual awareness that that is needed to start! It is the undercoat!

Primer Party 

Party held in dorm room or apartment downtown early on a Friday night, usually around 6:00pm. These were held to “Prime” pregameyourself for a night of drinking. It is always easier to get a good buzz on before heading out to the bars, than to spend $4.00 for a bottle of bud when you can get a suitcase for $20.00
That was some primer party last night, I got so snotted I never made it downtown

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
