TEDxPortofSpain - Kiran Shiva Akal - The Atma Project

Kiran Shiva Akal is the founder and president of Infinite Worlds Inc. and has operated in creative entertainment projects from a design and consulting perspective since 1989. He read medicine at the Royal College of Surgeons in Dublin Ireland, and was going on to pursue a second professional degree in architecture when he entered a creative competition held by UNESCO to celebrate the "Decade of Culture" and won. He has held a creative directors position for the Bastille Day celebrations in France. The project set the tone for his work which invariably involves architectural, performance and technology, integrated in highly innovative ways and led to his ongoing affiliations with some of the most respected intellectual sources in areas of material science, computer technology, structural engineering and animation. These people now form an ongoing part of his resources for project development and execution. Kiran is currently heading up the Atma project. The multi-million dollar enterprise will unveil a theatrical facility unlike any other in the World and house a spectacular that will be the Flagship resident show. The project is a closely guarded secret and promises to revolutionise the art of live- entertainment, as we know it.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self organised events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference Provides General Guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self - organized.* (subject to certain rules and regulations)
