How To Tie Up Your Shoes : Idea Explained And Demonstrated by a TED Speaker

           Terry Moore found out he'd been tying his shoes the wrong way his whole life. In the spirit of TED, he takes the stage to share a better way. (Historical note: This was the very first 3-minute audience talk given from the TED stage, in 2005.)
 How To Tie A Shoe  - Idea by a TED Speaker






About Speaker:
          Terry Moore directs the Radius Foundation in New York, which, as its website says, "seeks new ways of exploring and understanding dissimilar conceptual systems or paradigms -- scientific, religious, philosophical, and aesthetic -- with the aim to find a world view of more complete insight and innovation. The Radius Foundation is a forum for different views."

          The foundation has published several works that examine the intersection of religion and metaphysics with science and social action.

Ananda Shankar Jayant during TEDIndia 2009 @ Mysore !!!

        It was almost two years back, during 2009 TED came to India for TEDIndia Conference with a amazing lineup of speakers and performers. Favorite one of mine is the below performance by Ananda Shankar Jayant, a classical dancer who actually is affected by breast cancer. She danced to get out of her cancer. AnandaShankar  fights cancer with dance She won her life battle and now she is well known all over the world. Here is the video from TED which shows her performance and talk. She is the one who started Shankarananda Kalakshetra.
 
         This may be an old data, but still this talk influences me to write this blog spot. Some has extraordinary power within them, and this women, i think has the combined talent and spirit and determination of what the whole world has. According to Ananda Shankar Jayant, she earned her strength for struggling against the cancer through her dances. She did not feel that her career of dance got over but instead she continued her voyage and designed her future in a better manner that no one would have expected !!! Hats off to her and TED !!! The image below is the art that she drew out of her legs while dancing !!!

 







The pictures above shows you her struggle during her breast cancer treatment. One who sees these pictures will definitely get a enthusiasm to live his/her life overcoming all the worst difficulties.

TEDxTirupur - Independently Organized TED event at Tirupur !!!

       Tirupur is a city of business. Well known for vests and briefs and textile companies. It is one among the TOP TEN exporters in India. But there is something missing here. It is TED and social media awareness. This is my part as a native of Tirupur to host a TEDx event and willing to introduce some best things ever. And as a first step I obtained the License from TED to host a TEDx event @ Tirupur. And here it is ...
TEDxTirupur !!! Tirupur will experience TED soon !!!
So finally, to all those people, who doesn't know what TED, TEDx is ...???

       In short about TEDx, TEDx are the independently organized TED events. People apply and obtain license from TED to host an event and on TED's license approval, they become the licensee of that particular TEDx event which is valid for 1 year. They may reapply for the next time too...
And such an independently organized event is TEDx Tirupur.
