TED TALKS

TED. Technology, Entertainment, Design.
If you've never visited TED.com, please do so now. This is such a fantastic hub for intellectual expansion and there are hundreds of videos to choose from based on the area of interest.
TED is famous for its lectures, known as TED Talks, which originally focused on technology, entertainment and design, but have now expanded in scope to a broad set of topics including science, arts, politics, education, culture, business, global issues, technology and development.
Through just a handful of these fascinating clips, you find yourself experiencing such a wide range of inherent human reactions. There's something for everyone, truly. Here are a couple I watched this morning, I thought they were magical gifts, so I'm sharing them with you.

The first is a talk by artist and computer scientist Jonathan Harris. It centers around the ideas of human emotion, technology and how they intertwine. Two focuses that I'd love to build my career around.



And one of my favorite authors, Amy Tan (Joy Luck Club, The Kitchen God's Wife and The Hundred Secret Senses) discusses the creative process and how we can discover ours and use it most effectively.


Enjoy.
