Thank you. I want you to picture a scene. Gospel are 32 up in their match.They're winning. The players are excited. The home crowd is cheering.This could be the moment that that gospel bring it all the way home. It's the last three seconds. Three, two, one. Gospel of one.And the crowd are going wild. But this isn't a game that's played on a pitch or in a court or in a stadium. This is a game that's played on a computer screen.And students are competing in this game all around the country. But here in Gospor ...
The hidden cost of pettiness | Zoe Fragou | TEDxAthens Salon
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
How many of you have heard the phrase be yourself at least once. Raise hands. Okay, everyone.I have a question for you. What happens when yourself is the problem. What happens when you focus a little too much on your own boundaries and protecting them and not nearly enough on the boundaries you are crossing.What happens when you're petty. And being petty, it means you can't let go of anything. You get obsessed usually over meaningless things and you seek for revenge even at the expense of your own goals and ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
Can you see me. >> Yes. >> Thank you.This may sound like the first line of every single online call, but I am asking you seriously, can you see me. There are two ways how to answer this question. The first one is a simple yes.But if I left my answer there, this would be the shortest TEDex talk ever. Thank you very much for coming. The longer answer is not really and let me elaborate on that today.Now you can obviously see me. I am standing here on stage. I am wearing this pink dress and I am even bearing so ...
Bad Breath: What Your Mouth Is Really Telling You | Mel Rosenberg | TEDxAthens Salon
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
Hi. You're thinking probably that it's strange that a microbiologist like me should spend most of his academic career studying bad breath, smelling thousands of mouths and noses. And you know what.You're right. It is kind of strange. But look at it this way.I spent most of my early career studying things that people really didn't care about such as respiratory control in microcus lizodicus groundbreaking research that was cited less than five times in 50 years at 40. I'm aging myself. Um and uh you know it' ...
Bringing Ubuntu Into Game Design | Pascalia H. Nyamita | TEDxAthens Salon
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
H. When I say Africa, you probably have this picture in your head. It's war. It's starvation.But that's not my Africa. My Africa is full of culture. It's vibrant, its stories, it's wonderful cities.But there's something else that Africans have, something Europe could learn from. Back when I was moving from Nairobi to Warso, I thought that's all I'm changing continents, right. But I was very wrong.There was something else that I was changing something much more. I realized how people conceptualize individual ...
Using Music Technology to Help Children Grow | Thanos Dimitriou | TEDxAthens Salon
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
Good morning. A few years ago, I met a little boy. He was um some difficulty expressing himself and I just thought I want to help him.At the time, I was studying music technology. So, I starting researching how I can't find tools for any field and turn them in musical instruments. so that children with different ways of learning could express themselves through music.But the most important thing I discover wasn't only the tools. It is the way you communicate, the way you share knowledge and talk to a child, ...
Helping Children Believe in Themselves | Marios Mazaris | TEDxAthens Salon
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
When this talk ends, you can forget me. This is not a joke, not a modesty. It's the point because the more you look the teacher, the less you look yourself.And school is the place where you should learn how to look straight into yourself. Most people assume that teachers want to be remembered to be quoted years later to be the adult that changed a child's life. Let's think it different.I hope my students forget me. Not because I don't care for them or love them. I care a lot and I love them but in a differe ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-09 16:55
So let me take you on a journey. What if the factory of the future is ethical, regenerative, and beautiful for our cities, for our eyes, for our souls. On a wooden table in Athens, a jacket lays open.The lining is torn. The woman repairing it had one sewn under threat. But tonight she just finished giving a lecture.And as she closes the last stitch, she puts her name on the label. Not a logo, a name. You can feel it in the room.When we make, we belong. And belonging changes everything. This is the fashion f ...

Now for the next two minutes, I would like you to lay back on your seat and listen to my voice. Please close your eyes and focus on your breathing. You inhale from your nose.
