a safari into Brazilian memes and internet culture

In its more than nine events since 2009, – the most recent one drew more then six thousand people – youPIX has hosted important Brazilian guests like Gilberto Gil (former Minister of Culture), Marcelo Tas (TV Host), Rosana Hermann (journalist, internet expert), Helio de La Pena (comedian at Globo Tv), Rafinha Bastos (TV host,  most influent person on Twitter – NYT) and many international ones, such as Christopher “m00t” Pole (4chan/Canvas), Ben Huh (Cheezburger Network), Jamie Wilkinson (Vhx.Tv, Know your Meme, Star Wars Uncut), Anthony Volodkin (Hype Machine), David After Dentist, Double Rainbow Guy and others.
