About TEDx, x = independently organized event

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, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized 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)

hmm

[Jeronimosdc]

Say right... "Right" hahahahahahaha

I agree with everything he said.

Enjoy Jeff thoroughly!, BUT, I think he excludes the noise created by not having a speaker/figurehead. Weeding through comments (such as mine) is hard enough!

@synaesthetichord...agreed and it does allow for internal comparison (is that what you mean to play? or is your internal/external change VOLUNTARY..the real search-engine advance)

@AutomaticAwesome LOVE TWiG!

The purpose of continuing to cultivate the skill of memorization is to perform abilities that are too real-time-sensitive to search on google. If I'm performing a Rachmaninov concerto--which I believe to contain enough worth to be performed live in the future--I have to memorize it in order to perform it. The process of looking at each note is insufficient due to the human limitation on visual and mental processing.

The irony is palpable. (2:00)
