TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:54
My brilliant idea began with a very productive evening of binge watching anime on Netflix. So, let me explain. I started a new job recently and I got home and I was watching this TV show called Cells at Work.It's about a red blood cell who has also started a new job to deliver oxygen and nutrients in the body. So, she is struggling to find her way around. She keeps getting lost and attacked by germs and she constantly needs to be rescued by this really cool looking white blood cell.So, as I'm watching this ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:53
How many of you today have thought about the true value of speaking. You simply have a thought, opinion, or need and within a millisecond it comes out of your mouth for the world to hear. Fast and limitless.Bang. It is out there. Picture seeing your little niece, Gracie, about to touch the stove.No, stop. Well, I don't have the ability to say those words. My only hope is that I can manage to push her over with love.Imagine if you only had a limited number of words you can express per day. And you cannot spe ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:53
Imagine Italy with no noners, no yey in Greece, piling food on your plate long after you're full, and no Aboriginal elders. Listen to that silence. It's deafening.Now imagine a western world where that kind of matriarch energy energy is missing. Because that's where we are today. When I was 28, I sent my mom a card for her 50th birthday and it said, "Congratulations, you are officially a crone." I'd been studying naturopathy and women's cycles and the lineage of wise women.And to me, crone meant elder, trut ...

I think that the solution to the housing crisis, the loneliness epidemic, and the cost of living crisis is actually at home with mom. No, I'm serious. I I reckon it's at home with mom.Across Australia, people are moving out. They're working longer hours to be able to afford it, and they're feeling really, really lonely. We keep trying to find new ways of living, but I think the best way isn't new at all.I actually think it's quite ancient. My work as a speaker and facilitator involves making good people gre ...
The Brain’s Paradoxical Response to Uncertainty | Hayley North | TEDxSydney GIS
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:53
Have you ever experienced that discomfort of uncertainty. I learned it the hard way on this offshore sailing race I did where a massive wave slammed against our yacht and threw me overboard. And as I looked around and saw nothing but open ocean and the yacht sailing away, I felt what the brain does during uncertainty.It's that stress response, the heart pounding, gasping for air, self-criticism, you know, thinking I'm such an idiot for not wearing a life jacket. And the fear, will they be able to find me. W ...
'Whatever it takes': Trump says the Iran conflict will continue
NBC News· 2026-03-02 17:39
Today, the United States military continues to carry out large-scale combat operations in Iran to eliminate the grave threats posed to America by this terrible terrorist regime. Following our obliteration of Iran's nuclear program in Operation Midnight Hammer a short while ago, we warned Iran not to make any attempt to rebuild at a different location because they were unable to use the ones that we so powerfully blew up. But they ignored those warnings and refused to cease their pursuit of nuclear weapons.I ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:39
La inteligencia artificial está creando acciones tan nuevas que ni siquiera sabemos cómo llamarlas. Últimamente, si tengo que manejar un tramo largo y voy sola, voy charlando con un bot para no quedarme dormida. Eso todavía se llama charlar.Mi amigo Dan cuando pasea a su perra chela todas las mañanas va escuchando un audio que el mismo se arma con inteligencia artificial que le cuenta que tiene la agenda del día, lo mezcla con algunas noticias periodísticas y le recuerda llevar un abrigo para Chela si hace ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:39
Soy arquitecta y me dedico a la historia. Y es ahí en la historia donde me topé con las cuestiones del futuro. Cuando empecé a trabajar sobre estos temas del futuro, me di cuenta que nunca me había hecho una pregunta.Una pregunta que les voy a hacer a ustedes ahora. La idea del futuro, tal como la pensamos al día de hoy, ¿es una idea vieja o nueva. Resulta que es una idea nueva, bien nuevita, tiene poco más, solamente 250 años, poco.Robert He Brunner, un economista que se escribió Una historia del futuro, n ...

¿Cuál fue la última canción que les hizo sentir algo. ¿Cuándo fue la última vez que realmente se pusieron a escuchar música. No que estaban viendo un video de TikTok o deslizando, tratando de pasar el tiempo, sino la última vez que dejaron todo lo que estaban haciendo, porque eso que estaban escuchando les tocó algo que estaba muy adentro de ustedes.Todo pasa muy rápido hoy. Son 10, 15 segundos porque si no la atención se pierde y los músicos, sobre todo los productores, no ayudamos mucho a eso porque estam ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-03-02 17:38
El libro que cambió mi adolescencia fue Rayuela de Julio Cortar. Sí, ya sé, no es muy original. ¿Se acuerdan de su protagonista.Horacio Olivera. Él era intelectual, muy intelectual, siempre torturado por sus pensamientos, pero también estaba completamente enamorado de la maga. Ella era, en cambio, espontánea, sensible, conectada con el presente, con el aquí y ahora.Bueno, yo era como Olivera, super racional, muy orgulloso de todo lo que había leído, pero sin poder acceder a ese otro lado del que habla el li ...
