TED: Technology, Entertainment, Design

This past week, the TED Conference decended upon Long Beach, California, just as it does every year since it began in 1984. Bringing together the world’s most fascinating thinkers and doers, TED is like no other conference in the world.

Over four days, 50 speakers each take an 18-minute slot, to share insights in science, business, the arts and global issues facing our world. There are also several shorter pieces of content, including music, performance and comedy.

This year’s speakers lineup included authors, musicians, astronomers, biologists, maestros — each sharing a new revelation, a fresh perspective, a unique dream of a more perfect world.
