TED talks, do you listen?
.
Some kind person..... I can't remember who, sent me a link to a TED talk and I have been hooked ever since. There are hundreds of talks on myriad of subjects and I easily get lost moving from one talk to another. Each talk is 18 minutes or less, though there seem to be more and more 5 minute talks. I have learned so many wonderful things and been spurred to imagine so much more as I see people explore, work and play with life as it is and life as it could be. I thought having a thread to share some of our favorites might be fun! Here is the link to the main page: http://www.ted.com/ If you find something you would like to share please post it! I can hardly wait to see delights, encourages and inspires you! ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

I watched this one yesterday. I think it speaks to so much but about the importance of being out so there is not a single story of what gay is, but many, many stories.
For those of us at the Reunion last year, do you remember what meeting all of us did for Mary who had no story of what and who we are? http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/ch...gle_story.html

i LOVE the TED talks! I recently watched the one on the artist that curated a show of 200 different artists with different mediums, but the trick was that it was actually him who created it all.
I also like the one about tying shoes, and the one about making mistakes where the lady tells the story about the "ancient chinese symbol".

Love Ted.Com
I love Ted.Com.
Last thing I watched was this http://on.ted.com/Saks for a class on the social context of mental health and illness. Elyn Saks is an intelligent, remarkable woman!

Shamim Sarif: Why art matters (Not TED Talks)
From youtube: http://inktalks.com Internationally acclaimed filmmaker Shamim Sarif makes films that not only entertain but challenge as well. In her quest to understand what it is for someone to make sense of the choices that we take for granted, Shamim goes back to her South Asian and South African Muslim roots to understand the women there and their challenges. ABOUT INK: INKtalks are personal narratives that get straight to the heart of issues in 18 minutes or less. We are committed to capturing and sharing breakthrough ideas, inspiring stories and surprising perspectives--for free! Watch an INKtalk and meet the people who are designing the future--now. ABOUT SHAMIN SARIF: Writer/director Shamim Sarif is an equally successful novelist (the Pendleton May First Novel Award, Betty Trask Award), screenwriter, and feature film director. Her two feature films have won over 30 international awards. |
