Charge your brain cells instead of destroying them at Tokion magazine's Second Annual Creativity Conference, which features big talks with smart people like downtown photographer Ryan McGinley (who's being interviewed by Nan Goldin), music genius Brian Eno, Howard Dean's former campaign manager Joe Trippi, and musicians Carl Craig and Trevor Jackson. After you've absorbed all that information (sort of like school!), you can go home and ruminate about how much smarter you are for attending. (Just don't go drinking.) Saturday & Sunday @ 11 a.m., Great Hall of Cooper Union, 7 E 7th, 212.358.9818, tokion.com
Dublab, an L.A.-based radio collective, got the bright idea of giving 450 of their friends blank 12-inch record sleeves to design their own artwork for Up Our Sleeve. See what the minds of Shepard Fairey, Mike Mills, Saul Williams, and Jack Black came up with. While your eyes feast on the sights, your ears will feed on music provided by the Dublab Soundsystem DJs, plus special guests Caural, Prefuse 73, and DJs from the Turntable Lab. Friday @ 6, Aurora Gallery, 515 W 29th, upoursleeve.org
