 and music. My name is Nico Daswani, I'm the head of arts and culture here at the World Economic Forum and it's my immense privilege to be able to introduce to you today the wonderful artist Harry Yeff who is also known by his millions of fans as Reeps One. Harry is a vocal artist, he is a visual artist, in fact he's an artist that defies categorizations and for the last two years he has been traveling around the world meeting with other incredible artists, incredible scientists, engineers and experts in an effort to explore the fundamentals of the human voice which is as he sees it really perhaps the essence and the fundamentals of what connects us all as human beings are fundamental way of communicating in a sense a sort of global commons of the human spirits. The performance that you're about to experience now has been made especially for you. This is a commission, it's a world premiere and I'm not gonna say too much about it but what I will say is that it's probably the first time I'd bet for most of you that you will experience what you're about to experience. I will say that everything that you experience in the next few minutes will be live so that's the vocals, the movement, the visuals and in fact all of these elements come together to communicate in a new way. I hope you enjoy this performance please join me in welcoming Reeps One. The world is becoming more complex and with that comes a very real challenge. We are more connected than ever we must keep a quality of connection. We must continue to speak. We must continue to connect and I really believe the most profound communicative tool is the human voice. I have spent the last two years traveling around the world and something that is very clear about the evolution of the human voice is that we must connect beyond language. We must connect beyond words. We must connect beyond words. I push my limit to the and my voice to the absolute limit. I have to express and learn all the different ways that a vocal can be used but you have to consider that every single day with your loved ones, your working relationships, your voice is an absolute fundamental and to spend time thinking about your voice and the expressive capabilities of the human voice as a direct impact on your quality of life. I push it to the absolute extreme but I do wonder how far can human voices go? What can the human voice go? Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Reeps One everybody. Thank you so much.
