My favourite TED talks (Part Two)
I have been passionately promoting TED almost since it started. It is a fantastic initiation that completely re-shaped public speaking and informative presentations by creating a very entertaining and unique formula for sharing information. In today's accelerated world it offers us full engagement in any contemporary subject in maximum 20 minutes. Speakers are carefully selected and well-prepared to meet the high standards, therefore it is a real privilege to give a TED-talk. There are thousands of great speeches in basically any topic that you could imagine, so it is not easy to choose the best ones. Still, in this series I would like to share with you a few personal favourites.
This time I would like to show you a funny piece about tidying up, Ursus Wehrli, a Swiss comedian, cabaret artist and graphic designer (what an incredible combination!) speaks about his books in a great TED talk. Actually, he wrote two books titled Tidying up art and The Art of Clean Up and both are picture-books, hence talking about them is indeed funny. Without spoiling the show I can tell that he re-thinks and reorganizes famous paintings in his unique and orderly manner. This is a very entertaining post, hope you will like it! From a presentation point-of-view, it is interesting to see how he uses his huge printouts while he is speaking and how flawlessly his stories are worked out. A great performance, indeed.
Do you have a favourite TED-talk? I would be interested to know. We can learn from each other... 😊 Stay tuned, soon I come back with another suggestion for you.
