How technological innovation helps me tell Albania's stories. | Alice Taylor | TEDxTBU
TEDx Talks· 2025-10-02 16:02
Right. If you told me 30 years ago or maybe even 10 years ago that I would be here in Tana, Albania on a stage with a headset about to talk to you about how I use mobile phones and drones and laptops and AI and carry little microphones in my handbag that I use to interview people. I would have thought you were talking absolute nonsense. And then I probably would have tried to look up Albania on a map to check exactly where it was. But here I am. And I have to say as well, this is my second TED talk, but I'm ...

RT Jim Chimirie 🇬🇧🎗 (@JChimirie66677)Another British tradition quietly taken off air. Another shrug from the @BBC. This time it's the Boat Race - first broadcast on radio in 1927, on television since 1938 - dropped after nearly a century. Why? Not low viewing figures: last year's men's and women's races pulled in more people than the Masters and Formula One. Not cost: it's cheap by sports standards and pumps millions into the London economy. The truth is uglier.Inside the BBC the word that killed the Boat R ...
From rituals to spectacles: the decaying evolution of Nuo Opera | Qishun Liao | TEDxGCGS Youth
TEDx Talks· 2025-09-30 15:12
Through its 3,000 years of history, no opera has played an indispensable role in building the Chinese identity and has also been an inable part of life for people in ancient China. And the fact that I want to talk about no opera today is because there is something inherently different about no opera from other forms of traditional theater near its time. It could be traced to a term catharsis which is coined by the Greek philosopher Aristotle.What it means is that it basically describes this convention where ...

TEDx Talks· 2025-09-29 16:14
It's about the intersection of tradition and innovation when it comes to neuroscience, the brain science. How about that. What do you think about it.Somewhere around 2,500 years ago, the Buddhist monks used to be sitting and doing mindful meditation, claiming that is actually transforming the minds. But today, us neuroscientists in academia, in top-notch academic centers, we sit, we think, and we formulate ways to understand the brain dynamics. We attach sensors to the brain surface. We use other methods to ...

Traditions: Preserving or Evolving? | Samir Mahmoud | TEDxUnity Grammar Youth
TEDx Talks· 2025-09-19 15:28
Core Argument - The presentation addresses the balance between preserving tradition and embracing innovation in the modern world [1][2][3] - It challenges the perceived dichotomy between preservation and evolution, arguing it's a false dilemma born from a specific cultural moment in the West [9][10][11] - The speaker introduces three concepts from classical Arab Islamic tradition: imitation, innovation, and emulation, to provide a nuanced understanding of the relationship between past, present, and future [16][17] Key Concepts - **Imitation:** Reproducing something with strong foundations and principles, aligning oneself with higher moral or spiritual truths [18][19][20] - **Innovation:** Creating something entirely new, but always anchored in moral principles and higher truths, not for its own sake [23][24][25][26] - **Emulation:** Following an exemplary model and creating new variations of it, a middle ground between imitation and innovation [28][29][30] Practical Application - The presentation suggests applying the right approach (imitation, emulation, or innovation) in the appropriate domain of life [30][31][32][33] - It advocates for evolution within preservation, innovation within tradition, and creativity within continuity [34] - The speaker concludes by emphasizing the importance of rooting oneself in the past to be creative pioneers of the future [34][35]
